I'm a US military veteran, I approve of this message. I fucking hate the hero worship crap that rando people throw at me. I'll occasionally ask them what they think I did for them and they answer "muh freedoms". I tell them I was a stupid kid that got suckered into participating in a war crime, and we ruined people's lives who never threatened the peace and liberties you enjoy.
I'll wipe my ass with the flag.

you are the only good US veteran in the universe
What about Mike Prysner tho?
Mike is better than I.
I still struggle with this. Yes I was lied to and suckered in as a child, but the military shaped so much about who I am now. It’s difficult to try to separate myself from it, even if I’ve been out for several years now. It’s a weird dichotomy between the morons who praise me for being in and “serving” and my own personal knowledge of how evil and stupid the military is.
Just venting is all
Yeah, it's shaped mine immensely as well, I've experienced all sorts of material and intangible benefits from it; there were many times I enjoyed and it helped me to grow, and a lot of problems that it's caused for me too. I can't completely separate myself from it either. But the question I always ask is why it takes me risking my life and participating in what resulted in a genocide to be able to get an education and some damn healthcare in what is supposed to be the "greatest nation on earth". I think that was the question that really radicalized me.
If it weren't for me getting introduced to dialectal materialist and Marxist analysis, I wouldn't have been able to live with what I participated in. I wonder if that's a big reason for so many turning to substances and suicide, something in their soul tells them it was wrong. I was able to recognize I'm not the main character (great man of history) and the whole thing didn't hinge on me. Also, that this larger system is going to do these things with or without me, and I was suckered into it because I didn't know better. Now I know better so I do better, and my testimony to the evils of the US government carries more weight than the typical burger amerikan - I am become burger deluxe.
At any rate, have you been able to process this with anyone?
Saying veterans are suckers and losers was one of the only true things Trump ever said
when he's right, he's right
Lmao, didn’t know we had the yassified emote
Even better, when he said that he was referring to WWI veterans.
This article is ~civility~ libshit, but has some good quotes from the wet pres. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/09/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers/615997/
Didn't dodge the draft? Skill issue
We should get discounts as veterans of the posting wars
But what about the posters who bought a blue checkmark?
Imagine being dumb enough to pay money for a big bullseye
The real veterans are the people who have survived veteran struggle sessions.
We absolutely respect veterans: 
I've always wanted to create a ecommerce site that has a checkout cart with a check box marked:
[ ] Veterans and First Responders
and if you check the box it adds %10 to the total bill.
Maybe not first responders since that includes firefighters and EMTs.
To be honest, i fucking hate getting lumped in with cops for weird discounts & "thank you for your service" shit. Goes to my co-workers heads and they're already chuddy enough. It would be a hilarious bit.
"first responders" is pigs trying to launder their reputation
Adds 10% onto the bill and changes the recipient on the shipping label to "War Criminal".
Asking for my veterans discount and pointing at my “Class War Veteran” hat
I respect veterans, love people who fought on /r/ChapoTrapHouse
Back when they really would post hog 
I respect veterinarians.
I remember buying one of those poppies for Vietnam Vets because I thought they were donating the money to puppies and stuff. I was a child, just to be clear.
You don't get it, I volunteered for a government job that gives decent benefits at the cost of my own health and morality, that is paid for by you. I'm your hero
Even veterans of the posting wars? 
I respect the veterans.
I do actually know some IRL veterans of the War on Terror™ who came out of it not overly chudy and regretted what happened. But they speak vaguely of the dark shit they saw and did, and most of them drink and do drugs well above the average human.
Almost nearly all veterans I know fucking suck and talk with pride about their service and they speak about the locals as most people do animals. One guy I know goes back and forth between private military tours in the Middle East and holidaying in SE Asia.
Hell yeah I respect the troops 
I support exactly one veteran: 
the troops are war criminals and it's good when they die
Death to America
troop 1 and troop 2, the weight of the world on their shoulders
