Why does Hollywood glorify american soldiers?
They're not super heroes, they're just as fragile as any other human bean.
>>81361328
well... they kinda are
you might not care about the war but you have to respect the warrior
>>81361328
Because it brings in good money and some propaganda for the troops.
>hurr why does a country glorify its own military
>hurr what is all of recorded history durrr
>>81361328
Naturally a country is going to glorify their own soldiers
>>81362337
yeah world war ii might have been bad and all but you have to support the waffen-ss and the imperial japanese. support the troops brah
>>81362308
Jump safe pupper.
>>81361328
Because they aren't superheroes but they still are willing to fight and die to keep your commie ass safe from Islam
>>81362369
Not every nazi soldier wanted to be there, they HAD to be there if they were male and able.
>>81362383
yeah and that means we should always support them and what they did. right dude? *salutes*
>>81362416
>we should always support them and what they did
Where did you get this from?
Supporting and respecting are completely different things.
>>81362430
k then we should always respect them and what they did. god bless the troops
Someone should really make a heartfelt dramatic movie sometime about being in the Taliban.
>>81362416
Got an oven with your name on it faggot
>>81362416
supporting something and respecting something is not mutually exclusive. You can respect something without supporting it.
>>81362451
>movie starts with a Taliban member fucking a goat
>it ends 2 minutes later when a drone blows him up
>>81362494
'mutually exclusive' means that you can only have one, not that they're always together
>>81362369
>>81362416
>>81362494
You can respect a child rapist if he is an American soldier just because he is a soldier? It has happened and fairly recently at that.

>The Germans scored a direct hit on an M10 tank destroyer, setting it alight, forcing the crew to abandon it.[68] Murphy ordered his men to retreat to positions in the woods, remaining alone at his post, shooting his M1 carbine and directing artillery fire via his field radio while the Germans aimed fire directly at his position.[69] Murphy mounted the abandoned, burning tank destroyer and began firing its .50 caliber machine gun at the advancing Germans, killing a squad crawling through a ditch towards him.[70] For an hour, Murphy stood on the flaming tank destroyer returning German fire from foot soldiers and advancing tanks, killing or wounding 50 Germans. He sustained a leg wound during his stand, and stopped only after he ran out of ammunition.[68] Murphy rejoined his men, disregarding his own injury, and led them back to repel the Germans. He insisted on remaining with his men while his wounds were treated

what's your point?
>>81362470
god bless you brave defender of freedom
>>81362494

>>81362337
hey good job repeating a quote you heard and missing the point in op
you should then, respect both warriors why are american soldiers glorified over all others? especially given the literally millions of innocents killed as collateral in illegal wars.
>>81362308
TELL ME ABOUT FIDO
>>81362556
>you should then, respect both warriors
I do
Respect is one of the most meaningless concepts of human thought. How 'bout you respect my cock with your pusy?

it doesn't stop at journalism in 2017
>>81362532
support our brave troops, goy!
>>81362551
you respect nazis?
well you are entitled to your opinion. not sure what your point is though
>>81362615
are you saying you don't respect brave warriors?
>>81362637
are you retarded? do you even remember who you're replying to anymore?
>>81361328
>US lies to get into most of the wars they're involved in
>troops blindly follow and murder people who can barely defend themselves
imagine being spawned into a game with a shitty AK and no armor no scope being forced to fight dudes in tanks with airstrikes and body armor on their side. imagine you never did anything to harm them or their country before this and they're just there because their masters told them to go.
how glorious
>>81362308
Pretty sure that's a German soldier
>>81362658
shut up traitor
>>81362674
what did he mean by this?
>>81362666
He's Austrian.
>>81362697
Same fucking thing
>>81361328
thats kinda why they are respected. Normal people that are trained and go into seemingly hellish situations for the good of their country
that is what the movies portray at least. it absolutely is less heroic than that irl but whatever.
>>81361328
they are ads for the military. If you see a movie in the states you are going to see a long ass commercial for some type of armed forces before hand too.
Soldiers aren't even human bean.
Human bean don't sell every fiber of its being to megacorp government complex.
it's good propaganda so more people go die in some middle eastern shithole that hasn't seen peace this decade or last
>>81362551
Nice photoshop of ukrainian nazis
>>81363294
stop disrespecting them

>Why does Hollywood glorify american soldiers?
Do they?
In general Hollywood hates the military. The lunatic commander who can't wait to let slip the dogs of war has become a common character since Viet Nam.
Occasionally you get a supportive portrayal of the military, but it's nothing like Hollywood before 1960.
