Defect, GI
it is a very good idea to leave a sinking shipYour government has abandoned you GI!
Their families were even left with no food security. Now do you have the PSL or some other organization doing the Marxist agitprop with them? Naw. 🤦♂️ But they will remember some opportunistic Democrat making void claims against Trump’s term in their behalf.
I’ve no idea how bad suicidal thoughts or even ideation in Gaza is, but it seems like most are struggling to stay alive, meanwhile the troops are a little inconvenienced and a little tuckered out, and they’re like ‘waaaaaah, I’m uncomfortable! I’m going to kill myself!’; this is the man’s man military that Hegseth and Trump wanted to create? What a pathetic bunch of turds; they dreamt of marching through Iran’s streets bullying and murdering civilians like they did in Iraq and instead have to cower on warships having lousy food and contemplating making the world a better place just cause they’re a little uncomfortable. Pathetic bunch of turds.
Yes, this makes you both mock western weakness and respect (while lamenting) Palestinian resilience.
When the victim is able to stand up for itself the US army starts losing their mind.
This country would burn itself down before going through the rationing it dealt with in WWII, to say nothing of how the military would react
lol they start crying and acting like it’s fucking d-day when there aren’t enough chips in the chocolate chip cookies. Whiniest military in the world
it was even earlier than the Iran war. Some US mercs fighting in Ukraine were pissing themselves surprised that it wasn’t gonna be a walkover like they experienced in Iraq.
yall ever eat a normal meal in sufficient portions to flex on the troops
telling the troops about my intermittent fasting routine. Like I have food but I’m making a deliverate point in not eating it right now
@sailors kill ur superior officers and defect and u will be reincarnated as a lotus flower
Take just a second to imagine what the media response would be if China did this, even setting aside the absurdity of the war on Iran more generally.
Critical support for yank troops trying to make the world a better place
If it had been me, I simply would have worked at McDonald’s.
I hope they suffer
How’s the VA at treating chronic conditions arising from service-related malnutrition?
(I just wanted to get the phrase “service-related malnutrition” into the world)
It would be really, really funny if Iran started sending drone airdrops of relief supplies
I’d defect for some Iranian food rn tbh pretty top tier cuisine
Iran could buy themselves a carrier battle group for the price of some taftun and kabab
Wouldn’t be a bad move. Leadership would just order it thrown out and keep serving what they have been, imagine how the troops would react.
Hey, they needed the money for higher education and job training.
How come “false” reporting about the military is treasonous, BUT Trump lying about their condition is not?

Hi, queer person here! Quick question: What the ever loving fuck is wrong with you?
Hi, I’m a trans woman that acquired brainworms by reading about naval history. The article doesn’t mention queer people or sex at all, But I can assure you both are on the aircraft carrier. In addition to shitty logistics, the navy is making life even more miserable for the queer sailors (who are good for morale in a permissive environment)
Do u wanna explain what the fuck the “joke” here is? “Queer ppl are submissive sex toys that keep real men happy lmao” i cant think of anything else u could mean. Go fuck urself
Genuinely, the joke was that a permissive attitude towards sex and gender norms has historically been good for morale in navies around the world. The “joke” was that they aren’t just making life miserable by shitty logistics, they’re making life miserable persecuting queer people.
