How come every modern war movie set in the middle east portrays every soldier as some good ol boy redneck? How come Hollywood thinks all super badass mega special forces are some hicks from the south?

>Act of Valor
>Black Hawk Down
>American Sniper

The list goes on

Jews.

'Act of Valor' used actual active duty operators. 'BHD' didn't seem overly rednecky; there was like one overtly "southern" guy (M60 dude) and the rest were just dudes. 'American Sniper' was based on a dude with a very public persona of being exactly that type of dude.

Maybe you're a butthurt Californian suffering from a lack of super male vitality?

I'm in idaho.

I just watched Act of Valor and the thing I kept noticing is how redneck they all are. I mean Jar head wasn't redneck at all, Hurt Locker didn't seem that way very much either. What about Lobe Survivor?

Cuz they are.

Is the joke here that the movies are based on real people?

Red states have a lot more dudes signing up for combat arms, especially in times of war. That's just the deal of it. The military has disproportionate amounts of southerners in it.

People from the south have varying degrees of instantly identifiable "southerness". Some dudes open their mouths and you know they are southern, some are just sorta normal.

Also, movies are movies my dude. Hurt Locker starred a bunch of fucking actors playing characters who weren't written to be "Southern". Some movies play it up- which can either be kinda accurate or full on cringe, depending on how much the hollywood writer looks down on the south or military..

A large portion of the armed forces are from the south. Also the military attracts certain types of people, you are not going to see a lot of male feminists.

I'll never understand hate for military members on a board dedicated to weapons and warfare. "Dank u 4 cervix loljk" and "lol dummieees for israel" whenever anybody with first hand experience of the topic at hand is on the board seems counter productive to a weapons and warfare board. Unless you're just so bored with life that low effort trolling is all that fills the time, which is truly sad.

the world needs ditch diggers too. its not a hate against the military. its just perspective.

>>34151236
So if you know who joins the military why does this thread exist?

Because it's not untrue.

Most people in the US Army are from the Southern states.

Just the shitty ones that make all their money off patriotism instead of quality

American Sniper was a pretty terrible movie
