Looking back, I never really considered how horrifying the concept of high school military recruiters is. Like what do you mean you came all the way from wherever the hell to trick kids into selling their bodies and minds to the us government?

Most of the military is never in a position to kill and most are never expected to as part of their duties

the military is a ploy to get poor people to ☠️ because we're the only people who are that desperate for healthcare and college

And if they don’t die they come back to America with nothing but ptsd, depression and 15% off their next in store purchase.

Saying that it’s a ploy to kill poor people is a common misconception. The vast majority (around 60% if I remember correctly) of the military come from middle class families. Also around 80% come from military families so it’s really more of a family business than anything.
