I often feel like the odd one out in the US. I have no pride for the flag. I'm not religious. I don't like guns. I don't like anything military at all. I cannot stand politics. I do love my 80s metal tho and Football and 90s WCW/WWF plus Star Trek so there is that.

I feel ya. Fuck the flag XD Not religous either. Guns are useless. And the military... dont get me started on that shit. You can tell how brainwashed a population is by the size and pride on their military. Never understood why anyone who would die for a country who is using you for what equates to a circlejerk of power, the US (and most countries) use the people who serve as a pawn. Nothing more or less. The war being fought right now is not worth dying for at all. I also hate politics, US politics are especially bad. Theres no middle ground at all.

Well, I'd say there's three types of people who join the military:

1. Poor people who feel that their only way out is by joining the military

2. People that actually give into the rhetoric and believe that they're fighting for good

3. People that are violent and actually like the idea of killing people. I remember watching a documentary on the Iraq War where a guy said that he'd be disappointed if he didn't get to fight.
