They have quotas blame the system not the consequences.
If they weren't conscripted via draft, they volunteered. 100% their shitty choice to become a terrorist.
The average income of a enlistee is below the poverty line, if you can't get a job you can get your ass in the military and make enough to survive.
You act like every life choice is binary.
it was 100% your shitty choice to become homeless. maybe dont get cancer and be in debt to medical bills next time dumbass
I'm not homeless or in debt of any kind. Get fucked with your bigoted fucking blanket statements dude.
you should read my comment again but in a tone mocking the comment you responded to originally
That's what /s is for.
If you act a certain way don't be surprised if people treat you a certain way.
not surprised at all actually, but /s ruins jokes. i know what comes with the territory of not using /s thats why i very politely asked you to reread the comment
Which I imagine is specifically why you don't use it.
because it ruins jokes? yes
That's literally when to use it, it's specifically to use when you could come off like an asshole and do not want to.
You don't use it in my best guess judging by your responses so far is because you get to act like the other person is crazy for taking you seriously.
Being the guy that jokingly hates Jews can be hilarious especially if they are Jewish but everyone has to know otherwise they might seem a bit..... Mmm Hitlery right?
im dont think youre crazy. i dont think my responses ever indicated that youre crazy, i think youre just embarrassed to have made a response so harsh only to be found it was in agreement toward your original reply, and are now trying to make me seem crazy for not putting an /s. if youd like, i can edit my comment to ensure everybody knows its just a joke 😀
No need to edit if you skip the drama creation and out the /s there first bud. Move on.
Good to remember that not everyone is aware of the bullshit by 17 or 18 when recruiting is at its height (gotta pay for college somehow, right?). I know I wasn't but, luckily planned to do ROTC instead of enlisting, then, educated myself out of being willing to do that.
If "ignorance isn't an excuse" doesn't get you out of any law you break, it also doesn't get you out of accidentally joining a terrorist organization due to propaganda.
Because that's exactly what it is.
It is no different than the teenagers that join ISIS. Propaganda takes them in, they join voluntarily, they live with their consequences for life.
They are usually uneducated and poor with trauma in their backgrounds. They have no idea what they're signing up for.
This is an acceptable excuse in 1902.
In the age of Google and where even the homeless bum down by the river has a smart phone, Googling to find out about a major life choice is easy to do. Failure to help yourself do nothing but use a phone for 10 minutes deserves zero empathy.
Why not blame both?
For the same reason I don't get upset at the drive through server when the cook makes my burger wrong. They're just part of the process, not the cause it's kinda hard to judge people for trying to survive.
On the other hand, the policing system encourages screwing over minorities and doing various other scummy things (through a quota system among other things). This does not absolve cops of guilt if they target minorities, lie, or plant drugs.
