I hate all US active and former military goons. Their sad and depressing fates are better then they deserve. Burn in hell.
Some of the most effective and fervent leftist organizers I've ever met were former military members. Most of these guys were kids from underprivileged and undereducated communities when they joined the military and has never been introduced to concepts like class consciousness untill after the military used and abused them.
Pretty much every effective militant revolution in history were founded or led by a group of former military members. If we cannot accept that people can and will change their minds when exposed to the truth, then what is the point of leftist organizing in the first place?
Leftist claiming to be revolutionaries who then reject the idea that people can change is oxymoronic and counterrevolutionary. Leftists are converted not created, and we cannot afford to reject the willing, able, and capable. Do they have a debt to society? Yes, but they often know this better than anyone, and will work harder than most to pay it off.
I'm not American and I don't live in America. The leftist revolution where I live will involve going to war with America and Americans. I'm not against all military members, I am against American military members. I hate America and the American military for what they did to Iraq. I will never have solidarity with the people thatremovedd and pillaged the Iraqi side of my family. I hate all the people who were a part of it and I hope they all burn in hell forever. I don't care if they "change", I don't believe that any Americans living in the imperial core will ever cast away their labor aristocracy to become leftists. Fuck them forever.
I remember someone mentioning once that most US military are from middle class/petit bourgeois backgrounds and this has been the case for a while.
Also if leftist organizations are being headed by former fascist soldiers then this is more of an indictment to those organizations than anything else tbh.
Furthermore its not really about people not being able to change and become less shit in general per se, its just that those guys are as bad on the same level as IDF who genocide Palestinians and/or nazis who genocided the slavs. Like especially for the platner piece of shit. You can't just proudly wear being a fascist accessory to genocide on your chest, literally in this case.
I specifically remember a Maoist standard English article called “the myth of the soldiertariet” that investigated the data, but I can’t find it now
let me know if you find it, that sounds rad
It’s seared into my brain because it was so funny, but I’m only getting settlers right now. I’ll keep searching
Why do you think saying this "people can change" speech under a post about a USAmerican white supremacist Nazi makes your point more credible.
I don't disagree with you on a fundamental level, but is this something you really want to have said here?
