US cops too
hamas hasn't gone far enough.
It's gonna be fun seeing this screen grabbed on Fox News
also throw in US troops too
For some reason this is a controversial take here and people keep telling me the troops will join the revolution even though idf service is compulsory and everybody who signs up to serve in the larger even more genocidal army is doing it willingly.
its because every revolution in history has had a military component and envisioning one for the US based on historical materialism requires working in military participation as a prerequisite.
Yeah, the military will be either:
- Neutral
- Opposed
- Supportive, or
- Split
1 and 4 are real possibilities, but a lot of folks want to foreclose any avenue for anyone who's ever been associated with the military to take part.

People really fell for the "the US army is made of poor people doing what they can to survive" propaganda of the 00s.
I mean I joined the military cause I was broke and homeless. I did 5 years active duty and I'm here an committed as fuck to leftist ideals and revolution.

People should be given a chance to grow and change(not where it can harm others), I do believe redmeption is possible, and that humanity is not something you can loose.

People say this a lot, but the fact that the former US troops here on Hexbear haven't been driven off makes me wonder about the depths of their conviction.
I'd hope their conviction isn't real, because wishcasting mass death like this (1) is a purely aesthetic choice that does nothing but look unhinged and (2) is far in excess of even the most punitive measures suggested after WWII.
"We're going to kill every one of you if we win" makes winning harder, not easier.

Well if history is anything to go by, they'll slink off under cover of darkness, leaving their allies to be overrun by the Taliban.
every time i see one of those IDF thirst trap tiktoks i straight up feel guilty for being attracted to women
no more half measures walter
Bloodlust leads to war crimes.
Leftists would do well to remember to retain and value their humanity. It should be what separates us from them. This isn't a call for pacifism, btw. It's a call to not lose yourself in hate and dehumanization.

Do they conscript?
Service is compulsory in Israel. Every single person who doesn't have an specific exemption has to serve.
90% of people who ask for an exemption are denied. If you don't serve, you can be thrown in military prison. Usually this lasts for 90 days. You'll also be dishonorable discharged which can affect employment opportunities.
if the taylor swift fake news account can refuse service, so can everyone
If you think the average 18 year old who has been indoctrinated since birth threatened with jail and loss of employment deserves death, then you're just not serious.
Not even Mao or Stalin treated enemy soldiers as harshly as this.
Not even Mao or Stalin treated enemy soldiers as harshly as this.
And now the world is run by Nazis. Thank you for pointing out their failures.
Imagine blaming the current world on Mao and Stalin not executing low-level conscripts instead of the US literally importing and supporting Nazi leadership and their programs.
Not a hint of materialism on Hexbear is there.
I mean here you are with some materialism on hexbear, so thanks!
Fascism isn't genetic, it's a result of material conditions. We have fascism today not because we didn't execute every Nazi in 1945, but because today's "capitalism in decay" conditions are similar to those of a century ago.

Dishonorable discharged from the IDF should look great on a resume anywhere not genocidal in the world
terrible struggle session, next time you want to vent your anger in this way do it in a journal or something don't make it our problem
bunch of fuckin' libs in this thread.
it's just a bunch of words on a screen comrade nobody here is gonna be executing anyone jfc
edit: they're concern trolling, aren't they?
You're right, this sort of fantasizing is pure aesthetics.
What people are pushing back on is the idea that fantasizing about mass killings is a good aesthetic choice. It's pretty online.

Even these fellas? https://twitter.com/IDF/status/1505937747709767683
LMAO THE IDF THOUGHT THIS WOULD MAKE THEM LOOK GOOD, WHAT THE FUCK
https://www.jns.org/israel-news/idf/23/7/23/304719/
Google "IDF down syndrome" you will get way too many pictures of IOF members with down syndrome, and a video of a Palestinian with down syndrome getting his neck beaten by IOF members, truly the scummiest of the world
Extremely exploitative
This is basically a cum town bit.
Nick: What if a guy with down syndrome was a war criminal?
Stav cackles
Adam: like if Goebbels had down syndrome?
Nick: no like if a regular guy with down syndrome joins the military and they immediately put him in a position to do war crimes
Stav, laughing: I like the implication that every military just has a war crimes division
Nick: well, what are they gonna do? NOT commit war crimes?
Adam: I don't see how that would be beneficial; to have a guy with down syndrome in there.
Nick: think about it, if a regular guy did a drone strike on a school bus... Well, he'd probably get away with it. But if a guy with down syndrome did it, he'd probably get away with it AND the people on Twitter aren't allowed to criticize it.
Stav: oh I thought you were going on a different direction, like Lenny [sic] from Mice and Men
Nick: no, this way they'd be immune to prosecution AND criticism. Its the perfect system

Having known Israelis who didn't serve, there are options. Of course, to get conscientious objector status, you can't let them trick you with the "would you kill a nazi" question like they did the Taylor swift fan account.
That Taylor swift fan account was so real for going to prison rather than serving the IOF
I love all you folx but I'm gonna be honest here. This is just where I go to shitpost, and occasionally get a little too sincere when I briefly forget where I am.
It's not where I go to discuss tactics or nuance.
