There was deffo an article about Australian Coast Guard ptsd as a result of finding tons of corpses in the water lol quote:According to a new poll from Gallup, young Americans are souring on capitalism. Less than half, 45 percent, view capitalism positively. Moridin920 has issued a correction as of 01:18 on Aug 17, 2018 |

ate all the Oreos posted:Don't worry all the rich people will feel zero effects from global warming and most of the 2 billion deaths will be poor third worlders dying of floods and famines because we diverted all the remaining arable land to producing almonds and corn, then refused to let them immigrate as their countries were literally swallowed up whole by the ocean because maybe they're just faking it and they're actually terrorists. Exactly. That's why cleansing thermonuclear fire is the right option because canned sunshine doesn't see privilege.

Soldiers that do all their fighting through drones can get PTSD as can therapists who deal with traumatized people. PTSD is rampant among people that drive trains for a living if they end up with something like a person jumping on the tracks in front of them. As for the young hating capitalism...well really, can you blame them? They're getting hosed over by it.

JnnyThndrs posted:Carbon monoxide is a pretty good method; you just go to sleep and your corpse is nice and rosy. Cars aren’t the go-to they used to be because of pollution controls; the most effective way nowadays is a small, well-sealed area with a couple charcoal grills going. They’re huge emitters of CO and you can pick ‘em up cheap and not arouse suspicion. Make sure you do a test run with a good CO meter; you should get a reading of at least 2000ppm to ensure a quick death. Google ‘death by hibachi’ for more details. The lead singer of Boston, Brad Delp, went out this way. lol truth edit: did this, am dead

ToxicSlurpee posted:Soldiers that do all their fighting through drones can get PTSD I don't really like when this is used as an example of "gosh even these guys get PTSD", because a lot of people think the drone thing is like playing a videogame when in reality there's an awful lot of "go somewhere, blow up some guys and their family in crystal clear HD, then hover around the location for 4 hours and watch their almost-dead bodies crawling around with no legs, shoot the people who come to try to help the injured, then circle around watching them die for another 4 hours because you also have to confirm the kill and make sure the area's completely dead." A lot of people (especially the military itself) don't take the psychological effects of murdering someone and being forced to watch them slowly die very seriously and it's way hosed up.

Well that's a little disturbing. I figured manning drones was basically watching blurry people blow up from far away at low resolution.

Its fun listening to the ice cold banter of a drone pilot as he chops a stray dog and several vaguely humanoid figures into mince from so far away the bullets take whole seconds to reach the target.

Well, yeah, that's exactly the problem; you have a ton of people thinking "well that guy isn't in any danger, how can he possibly develop PTSD?" Turns out that pushing a "make people die" button can be pretty traumatic.

I could swear I read a 70s or 80s sci-fi story about a soldier with PTSD after fighting in a war where he remote-controlled a terminator suit and mowed down people who were basically fighting him with sticks and stones. Can’t remember what it was called or who the author was. E: the idea of PTSD from remote warfare has at least been around for a bit, was my point, not just “oh, I read a sci-fi story once” Pirate Radar has issued a correction as of 13:30 on Aug 17, 2018 |

I didn't know it was a surprise to people that guys who order around flying death machines to pulp other people might get disturbed by the process They're sitting completely safe yeah and that probably contributes to their PTSD. Only full blown psychos wouldn't start questioning the morality of it and your own role in it after you've hamburgered a bunch of people with your death drone before heading off to lunch while your coworker next to you talks about the latest game of thrones episode

I've seen a lot of those infrared war videos where apache pilots/drone pilots shoot up people and I think they are disturbing as gently caress. You see people explode and they have no idea what's happening and absolutely zero chance to fight back

One of the crazier videos is the one where an american attack helicopter is wiping out a whole band of enemy soldiers from a safe distance (business as usual) and this one guy with a machinegun, surrounded by his dead comrades, starts desperately firing at the helicopter he just spotted and somehow miraculously wrecks one of the helis systems so it has to retreat

Sounds like Old Man's War, in which the protagonist breaks down after fighting an army of tiny people who were no more than few inches tall and armed with literal peashooters
