    I hate all US active and former military goons. Their sad and depressing fates are better then they deserve. Burn in hell.

    Did any of this comment refer to you in particular?

          He said all veterans should burn in hell regardless of the circumstances. I don’t expect to be forgiven and accepted especially by the people I hurt but I think repentant vets deserve a chance and don’t deserve eternal torture

              How could I possibly know that? I just take it personally when people tell me to put a gun in my mouth or that I should go to the worst torture chamber imaginable for eternity. Sure as shit not anything I’d wish on a Nazi let alone a fellow traveler with a bad past

              Edit: I did a hell of a lot more damage as an ideological conservative in my teens than I did in the navy

                How could I possibly know that?

                Well for one as you know, the us military is a demonic genocidal force that causes mass suffering the world over and holds back human progress. You can also ask the person why they said that to find out instead of reacting with anger at them.

                The reason is because they have family in Iraq who are still alive and doing well god willing but were there when america committed genocide against them. I would suggest you apologize profusely without expecting forgiveness.

                Even if they didn’t have family in Iraq at the time there is nothing wrong with expressing disdain at a fascist military force. You shouldn’t swear at people who do so. The comment did not personally specifically command you to die or go to hell.

                I did a hell of a lot more damage as an ideological conservative in my teens than I did in the navy

                Its time to take a break from the internet after you apologize.

                  Maybe you didn’t read it that way but I did. I know I deserve to die but I don’t think I deserve to put a gun in my mouth or go to eternal hellfire.

                  I’m not minimizing how bad it was to be at a computer desk supporting what was going on in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2010 but I think a lot of people here are as guilty as I was but refuse to accept responsibility and I try my best to do that

                    Part of doing your best to do that will be apologizing to the person you swore at for expressing disdain towards the fact that your military attacked his family with genocidal intentions.
