And this is how I know none of you actually know what you are talking about.
The behind closed doors things benefits the military because we do things differently.
People mostly do not follow orders in the sense yall think.
We do what ever it takes to avoid doing work.
That is the life of a soldier.
You may have one or two Blue Falcons, whp do everything but they are so little it doesn't matter.
And then you account for the ones who sre trained to do the killing, one, nit allowed to legally be deployed unless it is MPs in the US, and two, are not stupid enough to think they stand a chance against the fucking nation of 350 million.
The military are not idiots.
We won't launch nukes if the coordinates are in the US, outside if MPs we can't be deployed with weapons in the US.
We are limited by the federal government so much that we arnt going to do shit that we know is out if the ordinary.
And in this day and age of modern communications? We can instantly communicate with out family members and relatives, or those we love and hang out with.
In the end, we will follow our morales over that of the big guy.
Because unlike cops, we can't just be fired like it's nothing.
It takes time, months if not longer, and at certain ranks takes a act if congress.
That is the kinda shit we deal with.
We also get paid even during government shutdowns specifically because they know that we won't work eithout getting paid, unless deployed.
Amd our higher ups know this.
They fought to make sure we get paid.
So if we are told "go kill US Citizens because we say so, even though you have a chance of not being paid"
We will have a lot of people leave.
