This is a topic I’m trying to be more informed about; as a vet I’m trying to keep every young person I know out of the US military.

I always like to start off by saying that the military will lie to you every step of the way, from the time you contact the recruiter until the VA denies your claim. All anyone at any step of the way is motivated to do is hit their numbers/quotas, regardless of you. Recruiters and detailers have a certain number of certain billets to fill, and they will slot you in one regardless of what you want. Recruiters can tell you you’ll be assigned to Combat Camera as a photographer, but then at boot camp you find out you’re going into infantry. Even if you’re smart, diligent, and read the contracts and fine print, they will find a way to screw you. In any investigation while in, they will do their best to deny you your rights and railroad you into admitting guilt at a non-judicial Article 15 hearing (where evidence is not required and hearsay is accepted) rather than a court martial.

Especially for femme people considering joining (mascs should also be aware and care), I always bring up Sexual Assault statistics. You can find official reports here (warning: US government website) https://www.sapr.mil/reports But, also actual numbers are 2-4 times higher than the US government estimates. On a more personal note, my cousin was sexually assaulted by the same man as multiple others at their command (who was never convicted), and suffers from severe enough PTSD that they’re 100% disabled (and was physically assaulted by a VA police officer at a VA hospital). I lost a friend at my last command who was sexually assaulted by their superior, and I still hate that I couldn’t do anything about it all these years later.

It is a machine that eats able-bodied young people and shits out MIC contractors and broken husks.

GI Rights Hotline has some resources about this.

The Quakers have some resources as well:

I will try to keep updating this with more resources as I find them.

I finally figured out that the best search engine query is “counter recruitment”

McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez identified the suspected shooter as 27-year-old Ryan Luis Mosqueda. Rodriguez said at a news conference that Mosqueda was connected to a Michigan address and a vehicle with Michigan tags.

Alleged shooter has a Spanish last name, so ICE may have taken some of his family, friends, etc. Obviously speculation

Today, countries like Malaysia produce last generation’s chips with last generation’s production tools.

I can’t imagine being 40 years old and behaving like this. Like, I know there are plenty of 40+ manchildren out there, but it seems like so much extra work.

Still can’t believe Glen Greenwald is Secret Service

First off, how dare you

Ye’re fond of me lobster! I’ve seen ye!

I remember people talking about how there were “AIDS needles” in payphone and vending machine change dispensers, or hidden in movie theater seats to poke you when you sat down, and that people would stick strangers with “AIDS needles” randomly. I remember it was news station scaremongering, but suburban white moms were incredibly paranoid about it.

They can’t even win at hockey anymore. They lost to Florida. Again.

This is exactly what my mom warned me about 20 years ago
