US military is the single largest socialist, and most culturally/intellectually diverse organization on the planet, of course it will draw a few morons in.
I know the argument for it being socialist but I really dont think its true. Government services arent ‘inherently’ socialist. And its more of an opportunistic mincer than some “diverse organization”.
They allow literally any race, religion, socioeconomic or ethnic group to join.
Everyone knows who gets paid what level salary because it’s posted publicly, as well as the same for each rank/grade. Both genders/sexes get paid the same. You get a predictable linear path to progress your career. If you don’t know what you are doing, they will go out of their way to train you and ensure you can do your job.
They subsidize your healthcare so you don’t pay anything no matter where you go, and if you are unhappy they will move mountains to help you get better (only so you can get back to working) or help you transition back into being a civilian (DoD Transition Assistance Program [TAP]).
It is successful at almost everything it does, and does not exist to create profits unless interfered by with politicians.
They are willing to commit exteme acts of violence to protect you and each other.
If society creates something great (Canadian made night vision optics with thermal outlines or a better rifle design like the Austrian SIG Sauer MCX) it will be shared with by everyone equally.
and does not exist to create profits unless interfered by with politicians.
Yeah, because there is definitely no group of people becoming absurdly wealthy off of the military industrial complex and invasions of foreign countries with valuable resources /s
It also exists “to be interefed with by politicians” by its nature.

It literally is the most ideal form of socialism.

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever read. Thanks.
