I don't want to hear about how your Wehrmacht soldiers are just following orders. Fuck the US Army and fuck the troops, too. Death to AmeriKKKa, death to "Israel", death to the west.
I don't blame anyone for trying to get out. When I was younger, I always thought I'd get out at the first sign of trouble, but now that I'm older, I've realized I can't bring myself to. Even if I could escape, I'd be leaving friends and family at the mercy of whatever comes next. I don't know that I'll survive the next couple of decades, but I'm trying to make peace with it.
