I honestly don't see why America even needs a standing military or troops stationed abroad. Get all the troops in foreign countries back home and let each country do each country.

Eponine posted:Isn't it haram, if you will, to tell civilians about your deployment plans? My military friends have been very non-specific about where they are going before deployment other than "I am being deployed to Afghanistan." Once you're there it's no big deal, but I don't think they want it to be public knowledge of dates and places that they're shipping soldiers out. This stood out, too. "STDH writer does not understand OpSec." Check.

Murphy Brownback posted:Also what was the deal with the 25 dollars from 3 separate people? I could see one guy handing him a 20 or something, but 3 people giving him more than one bill adding up to the same amount? Yeah I could believe it was a thing to give people a 20 maybe, but two different bills that add up to the same amount is superfalse. Superfalse is the new maximum overdidn't and I just coined it.

Or that the airline is very happy to give him a free first class meal while being totally hamstrung and unable to give out free meals to the soldiers.

Murphy Brownback posted:The soldiers were probably right - I'd have to be starving to want to pay extra for airline food. If someone bought me lunch after they heard me clearly say I didn't want one and wanted to wait for much better food instead, I'd be pretty annoyed. I doubt they were thinking "I can't buy this because I'm too poor", they were probably thinking more along the lines of "I don't want to buy this because the food is going to suck". If their choice was to not splurge $5 on an airplane sack lunch but they're going to be eating MREs for a long time, you can bet the sack lunch sucked balls.

If they're appropriating a culture, then yes you are correct and have a moral obligation to call them out on it.

Glad it's reposted though, because throwing trinkets at the feet of dancing street scum really shows how respectful the author is. Were it at all true anyway.

Something that always annoys me is when someone describes any mass of people as zombies like they're the special loving snowflake who is above consumer culture or whatever. Me, you and the important narrator are all just loving people too trying to get coffee or shop or whatever else.
