Ok so the war wasn’t about freedom, and a lot of people died for the profits of the rich. But shouldn’t we still remember those working people who died? Of course, and the best way to do that is to listen to them, and not the rich people who tried to speak for them. (15)

Probably because it’s difficult to perpetuate the false narrative that the wars we participated in are clearly not waged for any altruistic reasons. There’s no honor or courage in serving an institution that unleashes horrific violence for power and profit.

The US's endless wars have taken the wrecking ball to civilians--and veterans. Major studies show that returning Iraq and Afghanistan vets screen positive at the low end at 13.5% at the high end 20-30%. Roughly 17 vets take their own lives a day. Bring the troops home.

"In order for soldiers to kill, racist indoctrination needs to be part of the training. Racism is one of the ways the U.S. military compels soldiers to kill — by declaring their targets to be less than human." - @RTFanning #VeteransDay #ArmisticeDay truthout.org/articles/far-r…

“...when we talk about far right paramilitary groups that vets are drawn to, police departments are the largest among them.” @RTFanning 🔥 #VeteransDay truthout.org/articles/far-r…

This Veteran's Day, I'm thinking about how military recruiters would come to my rural working class community and set up their tables in the high school cafeteria, promising something better to all the kids who'd run out of options or never had them in the first place. They lied.

Friends don’t let friends work for war elites 🚫🙅🏽 We know endless wars are about profit and imperialism, not safety. Dissenters at Howard University exposing the truth about war profiteers like Lockheed Martin and Boeing preying on young people 👇🏽 #RecruitersOffCampus

As we will continue to say, when words like “service” or “sacrifice” are used, its crucial to ask, service to what and sacrifice for who? Remember that victims of war, are overwhelmingly civilians.

The best time to YEET the military-industrial complex ghouls from @Transition46 is after adding them to the transition team. The second best time is now. Shame on you, Joe Biden #WarIsARacket

-End the ForeverWar NOW. Conditions-based departure criteria is just a neverending stall tactic -close 50% of US military bases abroad and close more after that -fully fund the VA and fill the staffing vacancies -end VA prohibitions on marijuana and more -defund the Pentagon
