    Its just a regular job where you are trained to kill other people.

    If it wasn’t condoned by the government, they would be considered trained murderers.

    Oh, but it is to fight the trained murderers of other nations!

    So they are the solution to a problem they cause themselves.

      listen bro, animals kill animals all the time, animals fight over territory, the military is just a mechanized extension of that, idk what you want me to tell you, but this is literally just the natural consequence of the industrial revolution.

      At least now we aren’t killing millions of people, only hundreds of thousands.

      Also, this is falling under what i like the call the “ravine fallacy” where it only takes one person falling into a ravine for everybody to get completely fucked.
