the real result of MKULTRA was that they basically perfected torture

I don't think we even have to go to moral "oughts" if you just genuinely don't feel like working with veterans. I see it how some therapists don't want to work with children or something; it's just a segment of the population you personally don't want to work with. If you can get around it and it makes your time at work better then why not.

this is always a good retort when for when the non-communists say that we just want violence or that violence is ideologically enshrined into communism. To that last one, I'd also add that every political system uses violence, either overt violence or the threat of it, to mantain itself, what changes is who the violence is directed at and to what end. Under liberalism, it is overwhelmingly towards the workers and oppressed in service of mantaining hegemony of monopoly capital.
