      love that we’re expected to believe that the guy who fantasized about volunteering for the motherfucking Indian Wars got a totenkopf tattoo accidentally

      The guy (or someone he deployed with) had a Reddit post about using a Mk 19 40mm grenade launcher as an indirect fire system in Iraq because command has banned the use of mortars. Let’s just say that intelligence is not very high on the list here.

        oh yeah, that’s the other half of this that you’d think these so-called progressive commentators would care about. even if we buy the idea that mr totenkopf had no clue about his nazi tattoo, we know for a fact that he liked killing the “acceptable” brown targets, he signed up four fucking times, and then joined Blackwater in 2018. all of that is public knowledge from his reddit and personal history. he clearly doesn’t regret those opinions, he just thinks that the current targets are bad. which tracks, because you’d have to be that stupid and violent to think that was the problem with amerikkka’s infinite genocide on the globe, not all the murder of innocents and theft of their land and resources. guy’s offered seemingly no analysis of what’s wrong with doing global genocide, no reparations for his own decades of colonial hyperviolence. he’s done nothing to make up for the shit he’s done, which shows that he really has a problem with the boss, not the job, per se.
