I like how you instantly assume I'm an American just how you instantly assume I'm some kind of fascist because I think equating antifa with war heroes is distasteful.

"Oh yeah? What about the ones who died propping up fascist regimes in Korea and Vietnam?"

I was talking about those who were landing on the beaches and by extension the allies of WW2 in general, as was the OP image. You can't just try to expand the scope of what I said to try to make it sound like I praise all dead soldiers regardless of the cause. We were talking about fighting against fascism.

I don't give a fuck where you're from.

Yeah, I agree... equating people who voluntary stand up to fascists with those who has to be ordered to do so is extremely distasteful.

You can’t just try to expand the scope

Oh but I can, and I did - you want to pretend that the US military that particpated in WW2 is (somehow) completely unrelated to the US military that waged dirty mass-murder campaigns on the 3rd world both before and after WW2.

Yeah... no. I don't think so.

We were talking about fighting against fascism.

You mean that thing you haven't done a shred of so far?

Not everyone was drafted, you bell end. Plenty were there because they signed up.

I'm not bothered about what the US military has or hasn't done, frankly. I wasn't talking about the whole history of war, just that particular war and the alies, specifically.

And how do you know I've done nothing to fight fascism, anyway?

Stop being a sourpuss.

Your vapid ideology gave me a clue, liberal.

Okay.
