Not ragging on you man just saying I hope youre ready to live in a world of shit.
If you can make it through though, thats kick ass. I'm either going Ranger or MARSOC, depending on which branch wants to pay for my college.

>>41879491
Yeah i just want to teach and teach fighting. The cowboy atmosphere of going in alone and the fact you can help people was a huge draw as well.
I had a friend who i promised to go Ranger with after HS. He got tired of waiting and went MARSOC. He loves it, the NCO corps is the Bee's knees. Hope it works out for you man, military work makes everyone honest.

No, military work teaches you extreme discipline, that is, the will to obey while taking away any of your criticism capacities. In Foucault's terms:
"[Discipline] dissociates power from the body; on the one hand, it turns it into an ‘aptitude’, a ‘capacity’, which it seeks to increase; on the other hand, it reverses the course of the energy, the power that might result from it, and turns it into a relation of strict subjection. If economic exploitation separates the force and the product of labour, let us say that disciplinary coercion establishes in the body the constricting link between an increased aptitude and an increased domination." (from Discipline and Punish)
Military work, as any disciplinary system, only teaches you to delegate your ethical dilemmas into your inmediate superior on the hierarchy. Arendt's Banality of Evil could teach you something too.

Wow that last sentence is the most ignorant shit I've ever read. No profession makes anyone "honest". Anyone who thinks in such black and white terms is a sucker.

like a cult then. Its an absolute meme from time when militaries became state run, that "the military will give you 100 pence and take 99 away"(don't fucking know source)
I can see that how that can be a bad thing coupled with peace time or globalist agenda's.
