- ionised 9y agoAre you sure about that? History shows us that typically, soldiers will fight for whoever guarantees their pay. Combined with this; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment it shows that money, orders and chain of command are powerful motivators. These are normal, good people who signed up to protect us. I wouldn't put that number anywhere near 99%. Probably closer to 50%. Maybe even lower. I'm sure the people in any given totalitarian regime once thought the same way about their armed forces.
