Just today one of our members received a message offering a $30,000 bonus to come back in. So we here, we need to get the message out to all those who are not yet deployed. Now is the time to resist. If you joined up for values of honor, courage, and commitment. If you joined up to defend your communities, now is the time to defend your communities by refusing this illegal and immoral war!"
More Mike Prisners are being created every minute right now. This was from March 6th.
We can laugh but also now is the time to bring potential armed and trained folks into the fold.
We can’t just completely write them off though we must keep them at arms length.
Arm’s length is too fucking close. I’m not willing to watch this - what war did this asshole fight in, exactly? They’ve learned nothing and that’s 100% clear from the quote.
It doesn’t really matter, they’re still alive and young enough to be getting recruited again, so it’s basically the same regardless: “when I was murdering brown people it was for a righteous cause we were bringing them democracy and spreading American freedoms. Capitalism was under threat from people thousands of miles away! It was one hell of an experience!”
I don’t care why they suddenly think it’s wrong this time, they clearly are still on board with the actions they took in the past.
