    I’m sorry for contributing to the climate crisis and capitalist exploitation in the imperial periphery. At the time I felt I had no choice and didn’t realize the implications. Make better choices than I did and refuse to join the military.

    The correct response: FTFY

      Nope, you wanna push Putin’s propaganda. That means I get to disregard everything you say. I owe you nothing.

        Putin, (and Russia), is a capitalist imperialist just like the neoliberals in America. He wants his own capitalist hegemony. He rationalizes this by claiming America is worse.

        You rationalize your decisions by thinking Trump supporters would do worse in your position.

        You’re no better than Putin.

        Edit: Since it was deleted. Your original rationalization is flawed. Joining the military does not take the place of a right-wing nut job. The military will recruit you both.

            For my part, I rationalized it by deciding that I would prefer people like me to join up rather than right-wing nutjobs, and if I did, then that was one slot that a nutjob wouldn’t fill.

            You did realize the military will take you, and the right-wing nut jobs? So, your original rationalization was flawed. But, I think you already knew that, judging from your lack of remorse.

            I’m old and don’t have much time left in this world, so I’m doing what I can to make it a better place. I’m trying to plant trees under whose shade I’ll never sit, while you’re shitting in the river that waters it. Stop shitting in the river.
