    He got what he deserved. Literally he volunteered to be part of the US war crimes and now he’s complaining. Instant Karma!

    As crazy as it sounds, I say let ICE come in and constantly harass the military. Let them take it far enough that the military is willing to shoot any ICE members they see. Hell, have ICE piss them off enough to stage a coup. Ain’t no amount of police would be able to stop the military storming the white house.

        I agree I don’t want the coup but maybe if ICE pisses off the military enough, they won’t coup a Democrat if they ever get voted back in

        On the other hand, most democracies come from military coups. All the recent coups leading to authoritarianism come from the CIA or Kremlin or Islamism. After the cold war more coups led to democracy afain. If the US has an internal coup now it’ll be more likely one of those, I’d think.

    It’s really difficult to feel sad for someone who’s about to go fight for the baby killing pedophile. What a huge fucking moron you have to be…

        He was already deployed to Europe and the Middle East in the past. Safe to say he had a whole fucking year to leave the military, but he chose to stay and protect the fascist pedophile regime.

          You can’t just up and leave the military any time you’d like. You have to have a significant mental breakdown and end up in a psych ward to get out easily.

              It’s honestly been refreshing yankistanis losing their collective minds and threatening to leave fediverse, when faced with a different opinion that isn’t stroking their predisposition and ego.

              The fragility of so called stewards of “freedom of speech”, when they’re out of the platforms catering to their faux supremacy.

              I don’t think you realize what I’m saying. You have to literally attempt suicide in order to get out of the military without waiting out your contract or removing yourself from society.

              Like, they need to be able to visibly see that you have attempted to kill yourself, and even then you have to convince them that it was real.

              Would you cut open your arm right now to prove a point?

                You can simply refuse to deploy.
                No need to mutilate yourself or attempt suicide.
                Just say “No, I won’t go”.
                You’ll get a letter telling you where to meet your unit. Don’t go there.
                Or if you’re already with your unit, don’t get on the plane.
                Maybe you’ll spend a little bit of time in a jail cell, but even that is exceedingly rare.
                Most likely, you’ll just be dishonorably discharged to get you and your opinions away from the other soldiers as quickly as possible. You will then have to find employment with someone who doesn’t care about that.

                  German instance

                  Knows more about getting out of the American military than me

                  I literally did that. I told them I wouldn’t go to Japan. They confined me to my ship until I attempted suicide.

                  You are not all-knowing.

                No, it is you who does not understand. Why would you mutilate yourself? When you wake up in the morning, just continue sleeping and don’t go. Get a new job. Hell, even some jail time is better than killing innocent children in the name of a fascist pedophile.

                It seems that many Americans have this unary thinking. Like you have one and only one option, which is to obey the fascist pedophiles.

                Ever heard of resistance?

                  I have heard of resistance. I resisted.

                  I was in the military, I refused to go to my deployment. They confined me to my ship until I attempted suicide.

            It was never actually four years. The active duty contract is typically two to six years of active service, and then another four years of reserve afterwards. Basically, even after your active duty time is up, they can still call you back in (or just refuse to let you leave in the first place) for another four years.

              It’s, or at least was, an eight year commitment with the typical active cycle 4 years but some would do 2 active 6 inactive or 6 active, 2 inactive. Education or additional active years (6/2) could bump up starting rank.

    The facility where she is being held, run by GEO Group, a multibillion-dollar private prison company, has been the subject of dozens of complaints from current and former female detainees who have claimed they were denied basic medical treatment, hygiene supplies, and edible food.

    Others have said they’ve faced sexual abuse and harassment and were subject to forced labor. In December, a former guard pleaded guilty in federal court to sexually abusing a Nicaraguan detainee in mid-2025.
