Do you love your country's military or feel ashamed by having military forces ?

I'm somewhere in the middle. I do not in any way love the military because they are agents of government, and government's should not be trusted. I just don't feel they automatically deserve 'elite' status. It's just another job really but military personal have succumbed to doing the government's bidding in exchange for a sense of social eliteness.

I have alot of respect for our military and the people who serve in it. I have very little respect for the governments that issue their orders though. That is an important distinction.

Many are sold a pack of lies to talk a teenager into signing up and then sent off to fight and often die for American empire projects.

I know plenty who came out the other side who are now pretty far left.
