This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's exactly what "just executing orders" means. So no, I do not care about people who are covering themselves witch such stupid phrase.

It's no different than killing in the name of some god.

[–] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s worse. At least someone the person killing for god believes it to be good. The soldier is knowingly committing evil for money.

I mean, the military service is mandatory right? Yeah you get paid, but you don't really have the option to not do it...

[–] surph_ninja@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Plenty of people refuse compulsory service. You just have to be willing to do the time.

People are downvoting, but I respect it. Civil disobedience is always an option, like you say, you just gotta be willing to go to jail for your beliefs.

The Nuremberg processes want to have a word.

I thought only some SOF were present, not random military let alone conscripts?

I'm guessing anon isn't even Korean.

[–] Eddbopkins@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

thats why i never had a thought about joining the military. i dont like following blind orders.

"When sarge says jump you jump" clashes with everyone who who told me to look before I leap.

[–] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Unfortunately it’s required for the South Koreans (and probably North Koreans too?)

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

You'd have to be a moron to not realize what you were doing... Which is commonplace in the military.
