    It was never put to me at all. I’m just not fucking stupid and/or wilfully ignorant. Either way, being brainwashed doesn’t absolve people from all responsibility for their actions.

      I grew up in a poor rural area of the cultural south, scored very well on the ASVAB test (armed services vocational aptitude test), which was administered during school hours to all students. The recruitment drive was heavy. Maybe you grew up somewhere young people had more options.

      Yes, yes it was. You just don’t remember when. Morality is learned, for good or ill. And as I said to someone else, it doesn’t absolve them so much as it explains them.

        I don’t know man. I think it’s pretty self evident that travelling the world, killing people who did you no harm for money is bad and I feel anyone with a functioning brain should be able to come to that conclusion on their own, no matter how they were brought up and what they were taught and if they can’t, then that’s on them.
