      It’s absurd how many people are treating this as the red line and not just a minor backup to the main point that he signed up to terrorise the people of the Middle East with mass violence 4 separate times for the state, and then once for war crimes incorporated.

      Like what’s the excuse here, he needed to go to college 4 times? This is just what it takes to be a small bean owner of an oyster business?

        Right, and this was explicitly out in the open. People who wave their veteran flag for the worst war crimes of the 2000’s and 2010’s are either deeply un-introspective, or actually think US empire is good as hell.

        Difficult to know what course he would have taken after being discharged. But he was taking steps to talk to Chomsky after he was out, which is a positive indicator that he was taking a better direction.
