Its hard to analyze which way the balance tips if on one side of the balance his job is fulfilling, while on the other side of the balance sophistry gets upvotes. They're almost orthogonal issues.
- nojvek 8y agoAll in all, if you’re working for US military you cannot make a claim “I save lives and do good ladila”, indirectly you may be ruining many many lives. I don’t think the US has a good reputation as peace makers, albeit the opposite.

US military (and NATO, but I am just repeating myself) is currently the only reason why Russian armies are not marching through our streets. Western Europe alone would gladly sacrifice us at any moment. I understand that if you asked e.g. someone from South America, you could get a dramatically different answer. But I am speaking for myself right now.
