Brits, jealous of US air powah, bitch about drones, in Brit-like fashion

I don't think most Americans think that... in fact, I'd be shocked if it was the case.  So I agree with your "so what", but think it's moot.

That's why I said "even if" with which I was attempting to suggest a hypothetical.

Well, in Eastern Europe what Marty says is probably true.  People do their best to escape military service there.  In the United States it is not.  The problem is simply that Marty doesn't understand the 1st world.

It is an act though - Marty understands just fine.

Ouch. That's harsh, man.

Surprise, you're still a fucking retard.  And it is a very small nonvocal minority at that.  You see a lot of people at universities getting a degree and going into the military.  I'll be making $60,000 starting out in my FIRST year as an army officer, and in three years it will be $84,000+, guaranteed, full benefits.  How much do you make in Poland again?

Compared to college graduates now, where 45% of graduates are making less than $15,000 a year, seems like a smart choice to me, though maybe a bit harder than fags like you are used to.

TL:DR You're as dumb as ever.

Also, what is he hoping for? Even if most Americans thought that people in the military were stupid - so what?

He's stuck in this ignorant belief that the military is scum, and the option of last resort only.  It's a very feasible career, and especially given the current economic situation, I don't understand how he can go on about this over and over.

His current assertion is that :

There are many Americans who rightly think that people who go into the military (discounting intelligence corps and the like) are largely human trash - which gives me hope.

It's as obnoxious to me as the whole blinding Fahdiz God thing was to some of you.


So what if the sky is orange in his world, I guess.

I think Marti is right in that some Americans do agree with what he is saying.

Sorry, bolded the relevant parts for you beebs.  Font too small on the mac?

Maybe you can never leave the Warsaw Pact, after all

Many is not necessarily relative to the total amount.

If 1 million American soldiers decide to commit mass suicide over their deeply immoral involvement in American Imperialist wars, then that's many mongrel deaths, something like 60%, I think?

If 1 million chinks decide to cheer at this news, that's still many cheering chinks despite the fact that it's just less than 1% of the population.

Thus, the word "many" doesn't in and of itself invalidate Martinus' argument.

No, the fact that Martinus is a histrionic faggot invalidates most of his arguments.

Don't even need to pick at the particulars.

Really.

Well this is why I'm travelling Europe, to try to understand your "culture" and "thought process".

It is, I'm afraid, much too late for that.

Your blood has been tainted by interbreeding with the rebellious scum that overthrew their rightful sovereign. No American can ever be trusted to have even the most basic understanding of civilized behaviour.

[derspiess]

I think Marti is right in that some Americans do agree with what he is saying.

Some do.  But by & large, Americans tend to hold servicemen/women and military careers in high regard-- I'd say a lot more so than in most other countries.  I don't think Marti's mind can grasp that.  I'd make a Polack joke if I weren't too tired to bother.

Some Americans also believe in that the Queen of England is a giant man-eating lizard monster.  Saying that "some Americans" believe something is kind of useless.

Alas, your "new" schtick is just Neil's old, tired schtick.  Nice job of being Neil, for what it's worth.

I think large parts of the American left still have disdain for service men and women but painted themselves into a corner by playing the "but think about the soldiersoneoneone" card over and over during the Bush administration.
