I wish. The government drat well knows that letting the market crash would tank millions of peoples retirements and a new political party “più ghigliottine per te” would form.

I get your point. The counter point I have is there are lot of people that are coming back and getting out of the forever wars. A small minority of them go bonkers and storm the US capitol, but a lot of tacticool chuds adopt tactics and mannerisms that seem cool yet they have no idea what it truly means because they didn't join up and play the games for realzies (cause they are cowards). Given the rash of right wing white christian nationalist violence I think it's worth knowing what these things are, because they have very specific meanings. The chuds run about with the "don't tread on me flag" and that's a loving Navy flag and it has a very specific meaning. Ditto flying a jolly roger like those boogaloo boys stole. Ditto canoeing someone, its a Navy thing.

When people start stealing military culture it's worth knowing just what that means because these things all have a meaning that most people just miss.

The army guy who served in Afghanistan just called it 'cleaning up'.

this has always been the excuse for keeping min wage down - "it's just work for kids, real jobs have better wages"

one of my earliest crack-pings was when a libertarian at work went on about how grocery store workers shouldn't be in unions b/c it's just a kid's job and if the people there are older and want more money they should get better jobs and i was like "... what jobs??"

those are the same people that get the most pissed when the person serving them food or whatever is a bit slow or not great at their job too

that same guy i mentioned earlier said when he went to restaurants to eat he would put a stack of loonies on the table for the waiter's tip and take one away every time the server hosed up. i subsequently learned this is a "joke" that a lot of shitheads tell but i'm 100% convinced he did it for real.

like five years after i worked with him i was doing a bike ride for charity and i accidentally cc'd him when i sent out my "pls support me" email. instead of just ignoring it he sent back a long diatribe about how and why he doesn't support charity

My "vacation" is a euphemism for war tourism in Ukraine for some "bloody work" to escape my boring techie job and family.

Ask me about my warcrimes.

It's not cleaning up. It's desecrating a corpse because the actual results are pretty horrific. It removes any chance that anyone is going to get to see the corpse. It was quasi reserved for when someone did something really bad and you wanted a point about it. IE, nobody is going to abloo abloo about doing it to Bin Laden, you're dead and gently caress you to. But what ended up happening is DEVGRU started doing it to everyone and it sort of spun out of control from there. You also aren't supposed to off downed enemies unless it really was a targeted killing (most things are not, they are just kinetic, you don't shoot downed people).

So just like beards, glocks, and 5.11 pants it spun through the entire military to the point where it wasn't specops NCOs doing it but your average Army private was doing it and now it came back to the US. Now you have chuckle fucks doing it in mass shootings. Just like that silly "don't tread on me", that's the Navy jack. The oldest ship flies that flag and Navy staff assigned to the Marines or pulling other grunt type duty get to wear it. Ditto the Jolly Roger, you fly that when you complete a mission or get a kill and Navy grunts can wear the patch as well, which sort of morphed into the Punisher (it's still a skull!) and now cops loving use it. Even though the specific meaning of those skulls is "no mercy no quarter", ie you are there to kill and if you are flying it or wearing it you or your unit has done it.

Which is why I still LOLOLOL when ever I see some overweight mid 50's fat gently caress with a don't tread on me patch and a skull patch on their tacticool poo poo.

For further LOLs look what showed up in my email this morning as part of the Alumni of the Great Satan.

I started going down this rabbit hole and...

Pope John Paul I was trying to get the Vatican's finances audited - part of the issue was them being a big shareholder in Banco Ambrosiano, who was being helmed at the time by Roberto "God's Banker" Calvi, who was a member of Propaganda Due, both a Masonic lodge and the Italian arm of Operation Gladio.

Shortly after having ordered an investigation, John Paul I died under suspicious circumstances, after only having just served 33 days as Pope.

anything related to the p2 masonic lodge is a deep, deep rabbit hole
