Being a stupid (adult)teenager doesn't protect you from the consequences of your actions
Not even just stupid. There is no person that signs up to become a US stormtrooper who does not, overall, think positively of the US imperial project.
No doubt but this line of thinking that you couldn't possibly made the decisions as her is stupid. You guys sound like republicans.
US imperial troops deserve any reprecussion they encounter as long as they joined as adults
'You guys sound like republicans.'
Sure, but i think the gradient of punishment and level of forgiveness extended should correlate with who they are, where they are from, how they came up, why they joined, etc.
Not everyone gets to be born white with nice parents, you guys take that for granted. If you were born this girl you wouldnt be magically more ethical, more morally sound or more intelligent than her.
Don't assume my race or that of other users unless they have explicitly stated it
While I can sympathise with poverty driving people into taking what they think is a steady job as well as the attractiveness of the GI Bill, it is not the only path even if others maybe require more work
The majority choose those paths rather than becoming a solider of the empire
And to a certain degree with the propgadisation, but above a certain age excpecting people to form a wordview outside of public school education and CIA Jim Hollywood rah-rah americana is an acceptable position espeially in this information age
Perhaps not and without getting into nature vs nurture, I could just as easily have ended up one of the majority of people born into her same circumstances who did not join up be enforcers of empire, and forged a life path that does not contain contributing to mass slaughter of innocents
