    I would posit only portions of our behavior in ww1 and ww2 were honorable. Supporting the creation of zionist colonialism and nuking a couple cities is … not honorable. Also, I tried to say it and it may have come across odd but those drafted are prisoners compared to those who volunteered. They are not the same.

      Yeah, true, we definitely did some fucked up shit in the world wars, but at least I can respect the people who joined.

      Also, full sympathy to those who were drafted. I should have put more emphasis on “signed up”
