I care about my sangha. My "country" is not my sangha and I have no obligation to kill when asked. Even if my sangha ordered me to kill I wouldn't. I'd only do so in order to protect.

Killing violates the first precept. Which is why I don't eat meat, and refused to eat fish even though my doctor recommended I do so.

Even if killing meant prolonging my own life, I'd refuse to take a life just to save my own ass. How is that selfish or cowardly to accept another kill me rather than obey orders I kill? My death would be honorable and on them.

So trump was brave for faking plantar fasciitis?
Click to expand...

I don't know for sure if he faked plantar fasciitis or not, but he'd still be an inflated douchebag either way. I suspect he did fake it, but that's not really the point I was making.

If Trump had displayed the honesty Cassius Clay / Muhammad Ali did, by openly refusing to go rather than getting "permission" not to go I'd respect that action.

The Vietnam war, which relied on the false narrative of "protecting freedom" also featured a military draft. which is of course a form of slavery. Many (most) of the people who went to war did so due to their obedience training. Wars are often fought by obedient stooges. Although I think Moe, Larry and Curly weren't drafted because they were too old.

Did you sign up to be part of a foreign war of aggression or were you being obedient and obeying orders from the masters draft board? How do people that are drafted "protect freedom" if being drafted is an act which negates freedom ?

Also, there's no need to use sign language sir, use your big boy words to explain why you went someplace to aid in an invasion. I mean it's okay to say you went because you didn't know any better or do you cling to the fantasy that invading people is somehow a good thing?

Sitting at home with “bone spurs” while others die in your place isn’t brave

Your problem is that you don’t know what words mean

That all depends. Whether you were drafted to go over and shit all over the floors in Vietnam (a senseless thing to do ) or you volunteered to go over and shit all over their floors, either way going to shit on others floors simply because an "authority" told you too, would be a senseless thing to do.

The right thing to do, would be for you to manfully refuse to go and say, "ain't no Viet Cong ever shit on my floor, so I ain't going over their 10,000 miles to shit on their floors". Which is pretty much what Cassius Clay / Muhammed Ali said and Trump didn't have the balls to say.

My problem is I know that blind obedience to authority is a curse rather than a virtue.

Oil is so 1990s. 9/11 was for opium poppies, hash plants, and lithium. That's how one rolls in ths 21st century.

Yep, keep distracting.

Underwood said Exxon’s fraud had a direct impact on New York investors. The state’s common retirement fund, with more than 1 million employees and retirees, and the New York State Teachers Retirement System, with nearly half a million members

That just New York, Comrade.

We're at peak middle east oil. We get more oil by fracking and off shore drilling. Afghanistan has over $1 trillion in lithium, and another $2 trillion in other minerals. Ever heard of our opiad crisis? Where do you think that comes from? Most countries mix hash and tobacco. Very few do buds like we do. The best hash plants come from Afghanistan.

You're living in the past. Welcome to the 21st century of greed.

It's ironic that Exxon couldn't exist in the way it exists if it weren't for fraudulent concepts such as "the State".

Retirement funds which are "publicly funded" are a form of theft, since they forcibly redistribute from one party to another without the consent of all involved parties.

Open your eyes and stop pretending it's okay for laws to legalize theft and murder, comrade.

anyone who has a choice NOT to go fight bankster and military industrial complex wars SHOULD exercise that choice

There are so many military suicides because they realized they were killing innocent people and seeing their fellow soldiers die and be maimed for no good reason

You know Ali was originally classed as unfit for duty.

His reading, and writing skills were not good enough to follow orders, and the higher ups revised the test, and later reclassified him as 1A/Eligible.

Ali was shafted.

On April 27th, 1967: on this day Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. was drafted into the United States Army at the military induction center in Louisville, Kentucky. Watch The Politics of Muhammad Ali

Three years before, his writing and spelling skills had been considered below par, resulting in a failure to pass the Armed Forces qualifying test. But when those tests were later revised in early 1966, a reclassified score of 1A meant that he was now eligible for the draft.
