"Obviously, the reintroduction of conscription is an extremely disturbing prospect given America’s propensity for getting involved in meaningless wars that accomplish nothing other than empowering our enemies, killing and maiming our soldiers, and wasting vast resources."
Sure sounds like shitty propaganda to me but what do I know?
I hate that center-left anti-war rhetoric here always conveniently forgets the MILLIONS of civilians we have killed, instead focusing on the relatively measly tens of thousands of brave, brave American soldiers dying.
To look at the world that way, is certainly racist, but they'd never acknowledge that.
A warmonger that seeks to wage war against other nations must believe that beyond the country's borders are people of lesser value.
