    I hate recruiters because they encourage naive teenagers to become professional killers at an age and level of experience where they cannot understand what that means.

    Half the point of basic training is to break or subvert the part of the brain that questions authority and objects to doing violence. Psychologically, humans are not designed for killing other humans. Taking a life is difficult for a good fucking reason, and bypassing that instinct is dangerous.
