>Mr. Grodt, 28, had no military training and no previous connection to Syria. But he found himself on the front line of one of the most dangerous conflicts in the world.
>“Rob felt strongly enough that he was willing to risk and ultimately give his life,” said Ronald L. Kuby, a civil rights lawyer who met Mr. Grodt and Ms. Dedrick at the Occupy protest. “It was a powerful vision.”

no, he was a brave yet misguided warrior. Its a shame his daughter will grow up without a father.
It's the same reason a person will base their entire identity in society on a foundation such as taking dicks up their assholes.
They've been stripped of any sense of who they are, their heritage, a purpose for existing. Everything.
All they've been left with is guilt, shame, a Godless existence, their sex junk and other shit I'm too drunk to fucking say.

if he actually faught for five years with the Kurds he's probably not a meme
this post is also not a meme, I know a few ex-military guys that did the exact same thing, but only for a year or two

He followed his convictions with action. Something that 99.9999% of /pol/ will never do.

he abandoned his child and died. your convictions no longer matter when you reproduce. only your child.

He basically did the opposite of every single Syrian male and decided to go and fight lol
Now his daughter will grow up with her step daddy Abdullah, coincidentally from Syria. I really really like this

Damn well said.
Nihilism has such a powerful hold on the world right now.
People say: Borders don't matter, gender doesn't matter, money doesn't matter, etc.
Yes, in the grand scheme of the universe, absolutely nothing on this planet matters, but the answer is to find something that matters to us. Some people haven't yet found it, and they are totally lost in their search.
