This is the time for you to join the US Military. There’s about to be a lot of open vacancies. I encourage every lib who believes that the military needs reform, and that believes that systems can and should be reformed from the inside and by participating in them, to put your money where your mouth is.
If you don’t do it you’ll be a hypocrite and we’ll remind you every chance we get forever. You had a golden opportunity to try putting your ideology to work and didn’t do it!
Now’s the chance! Get in there and make a difference. Go fix the system and prove us tankies wrong
“if I raze another village maybe I’ll get a higher rank and can change from inside better” type
I thought that was the whole schtick for corporate Dems to begin with. “If I don’t do it, someone even worse would do it.”
At least I’ll plug my nose and feign sorrow on my face after shitting all over your carpet, unlike those smug republicans!
It is such a golden opportunity, libs.
This is where the careers of the future rulers of America will be made, on the battlefields of Iran exercising firm handed restraint backed by the best supply chain the
freemarket can provide.Get out there and spread your enlightenment to the barbarians on both sides. You can liberate us all if you try.

Salting the military is a legit strategy that’s occasionally useful. It was done during the Korean (or Vietnam?) war iirc.
I’m doubtful it would be useful right now but at some point if the downward slope of the US intersects with the upward slope of leftist organizing, it may be. Especially if a draft is reinstated.
A communist party cannot seize power without some sort of military strength. In order to grow military strength, there has to be some mechanism by which its structure is produced and reproduced. You need logistics and production that can contend with the state in some way. Coopting a national military kills two birds with one stone.
Decolonial contexts have historically proven to be the strongest due to the common interest of national liberation. But within the imperial core the military is fundamentally reactionary, so salting probably couldn’t accomplish much other than sabotage.
Without the national military, then, we’re left with paramilitary/guerrilla, which is impractical in the US, or coopting/forming some other organization, perhaps local police or private security. The silver lining of the fact that there are hundreds upon hundreds of military/quasi-military entities that exist in the US (on every level-- national, state, city, and private) is that there are a lot more places to find weaknesses.
Of course, this all requires a well-organized party.
