I do not support the US imperial military, as it's an extremely brutal means by which the US Empire cements its neocolonial and imperialist extraction around the world. No good has come from the US military outside of its participation in World War II in the last century. Outside of that conflict, it has exported genocide and mass slaughter of innocents on a regular basis. The problem isn't simply the leaders, it's the entire imperialist system the US Empire rests on, along with its ongoing settler-colonial project. Platner's participation in that system is well-documented.
