Hey! It takes real courage to draft dodge cause you’re rich and believe you are superior to everyone else.

I think it's a competition thing too. They are trying to one up each other, whomever dies with the most money wins i guess.

Money is their only end. Everything they do politically is to further the accumulation of wealth. Not a single one has a moral or scruple that takes precedence over their money grubbing.

Don't forget how Hitler was obsessed with the equivalent of Harry Potter at the time. He completely believed the self-insert author actually possessed wonder weapons from the books. Hitler even insisted on using military strategies from the books in some offensives depite the author having no military background.

I don't know about the wolf part, but the term Herr was/is super common when referring to somebody male. Not only does it mean Mr or sir, its part of German etiquette to use that term. Like how Japanese add San to a persons name to show respect. Hitler would not need to insist people call him Herr, its just how he would be referred to.

Ha ha ha, I will have to check it out thanks.

Still though, our guy is dumber, but maybe just because he's a decrepit old dotard.

Side note as to the horsewhipping on the street, reminds me of Ivan the Terrible, Russia's old Tsar. He used to go on the streets in plainclothes and cut peoples' beards off just for the lulz. Forget what year he was.

Like how Henry Kissinger living so long despite degrading into a puddle years before his death?

He's never going to die.

Its probably so vets don't feel bad about all the unjust oil based wars and government toppling they do as part of their service.

A lot of Americans have a uniform fetish.

I used to rock a flat top haircut, when living in the mid-south people regularly offered to buy me a beer to thank me for my service. They were often put off if I told them I never served. I switched to asking they write their representatives to improve the VA if they really wanted to thank vets.

Honestly, it's a job that comes with an implicit "you are worth less than our objectives and your life will be risked if we deem it." No OSHA, no safety regulations (well, militaries have their own regulations...) Get in the barely tested hardware and determine if it'll protect you from a bomb. Also, if you disagree, we'll put you in jail or jack up your life.

That said, countries need armies. Where would Ukraine be if they decided to disarm for security agreements that were then quickly violated? And what if that foe was actually competent?

But, like, post-Vietnam, Americans should've realized they weren't the good guys. It's a shame new people keep getting born and don't realize the whole history of their country...

"Thank you for your service" has always just meant "look what a great American I am". It's just a shallow performance of self-righteousness, like almost everything we do here.

The big deal to me is they signed up for a job that kills and rapes kids, people, and is directly responsible for the industrial complex of killing brown people and kids. They should have adequate shelter and food and water like everyone else but should be shunned by society just like all US military members and vets. Like prison isn’t enough for these psychos but I don’t believe in capital punishment.

Yeah it's all about harvesting money from the federal government.

We have all the wrong people in charge, ancient writer plutarch in his 'Lives,'1st century book that compared and contrasted a similarly placed greek and roman notables made the point that people like antiochus, (a Selucid (greek general that took from persia to the levant to part of asia minor after Alexander's death,) a king that tried to unite the greek states as Alexander had done, saw Money as the End in itself, while the Truly Great see money as a means to an end.

Antiochus refused to hire all of these badass mercenaies from north of the Danube, fierce barbarians, because they demanded gold up front. He instead encamped to the Hot Gates of the famous Leonidus' last stand against the persian hordes centuries prior, made a palisade and deployed his hopilites.

Cato, I think the elder, of the romans knew the story of leonidas too as everyone did then, and they found the goat trail to bring them to the hills overlooking the gates. Threw a bunch of rocks while they charged down, Antiochus took one to the teeth and bleeding profusely sped off on his horse and his army routed.

Anyway that long aside aside, while people like Alexander and Julius saw money as a means to an end, the antiochus' and our leaders believe in nothing other than self advancement. Too greedy to achieve anything great.

Or an airline catering cart

Putting his stupid face on coinage is illegal too and it doesn't seem to be stopping them.

There's even more precedent for him doing illegal things! So it's all fine. /s
