What was or is your experience like?

yeah, do your 4 years for free college and get out. you can meet some great people there and find a good community but ultimately you have to be fine with conforming and being forced to suck the government's/your supervisor's/chain of command's d***. plus there's always the valid moral concerns people have with joining the military etc

don't listen to anyone who will inevitably come in here and clown you or anyone else though. the military is a fantastic (benefits-wise) way out of s***ty situations for a lot of people. if anyone joins because they wanna kill people though they should kill themselves first

If you join an organization that kills people because you want free college you're still joining the organization that kills people

you probably get no answers from them stolen valors itt

a poor kid with d*** addicted parents doesnt give a f*** about that

Blame the system not the kid that got dealt a s***ty hand.

F*** the troops tho. But i get it.

Me rn. Got two years left and maybe two semesters left in college if i push hard enough. S*** been training me ever since i got in but imma get an amazing job offer i would never get had i not joined. Bout only thing im thankful for.

Rare privileged take from u tbh

Nah f*** you if you join the military

It's rly not lol, plenty of people who aren't from privileged backgrounds don't join the military out of principle

My brother came to the US and refused an internship offer from the military came there with nothing and stood by his principles that's real shyt u wouldnt know 💯💯

Ok great it worked for him lol and obviously I agree it’s awful but can’t fault people for wanting to lift themselves out of poverty

Bro said stick to your principles don’t take that free food and college education

I don't blame the person as much for joining the military if they're poor ofc and do it for benefits

But it's still a morally questionable decision to put it lightly

Guess we just built different what can i say

I mean I’m lucky enough to not have to be in that position but cmon you must understand for some ppl it’s literally life or death

If I was poor and desperately wanting free education without being the college eating up my finances then I’d join the military 🤷‍♂️

F*** the moral stuff 😂

And for a lot more it's just about not having to take out loans or go thru community college

Sorry i'm not sympathizing with that

Yea I’m with you on that. CC is the path I took to make more than like my entire family combined

Disgusting take

Mine?

We actively make people starve so they join the military 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

You should direct your anger towards the people that want you in a genocidal structure rather than submitting to their authority so you’re forced to commit that genocide for free food and education LOL

Absolutely

F*** the military but you guys coming off as hella privileged fr

Privileged? The US military killed my family you idiot.

You said it yourself, we make people starve to join the military. But y’all mad at the starving people?
