fuck the military but yall a little too loud telling poor people what you wouldn’t do when you would never know what it’s like or be in that position to begin with. no one cares what your middle class ass would do stfu
it’s more than just going in under the promise of free school lmfao yall get all your knowledge of people living in poverty from statistics and it shows
they are murderous war criminals regardless and no amount of ignorance changes the impact of the harm they’ve done. but it’s idiotic for those with privilege pretend they have any idea of what systematic military recruitment looks like for low income Black and Brown children.
acknowledging this isn’t meant to wipe blood off their hands, nor meant to center Americans in discourse where we are far from the most affected, but rather the perpetrators of harm. acknowledging it is acknowledging further inequalities Black+brown, low income ppl face in the US
this isn’t directed towards members of the communities that have been harmed. victims of american imperialism do not owe any perpetrator, regardless of background or circumstances, any sympathy or understanding. not a crumb! this was specifically @ white, affluent libs i’ve seen-
engaging in the discourse without recognizing the privileges they hold over certain communities and the complexities that exist within them.
