on this day 80 years ago, thousands of good men on both fronts lost their lives to a shitty war they were forced into that should have never been fought. today they are remembered by many as "heroes" but all i think about are graves of men who were used and brainwashed as puppets of the ruling class.
i wish that the united states would stop getting involved in everyone's business. it only creates strain in every aspect. not just in our own country but everywhere. and what do the families of the dead soldiers get? enough money to live for another year. i'm so fuckin fed up with this shit. it's important to protect our own country (WHICH WE AREN'T EVEN DOING BTW) but intervening in all this conflict and acting like we are the ones who control the world's stage is deplorable and only leads to a spiraling hole where we will inevitably crash and burn. what good is being a so-called "superpower" when the people here are struggling? when we bring that struggle everywhere we go? it's retarded.
