We Americans do. How about the rest of you guys?
Does your country worship people who served in the military?

most ppl despise them
Only those who were in recon.
AMERICA FUCK YEAH
Thank you for your cervix
going to the army is seen as the escape way if you fail at studies
:(
they require high school now here
Pathetic. No wonder Spain is such a shithole
No not really
Hell no.
The media and government worships the females and immigrants who serve.
No because so many serve in it. Only countries with volunteer armies have a mindless worship of soldiers because most have no idea what fighting is like.
Americans have fought in many wars since its existed and we worship soldiers here.
No, we are thankful for their job during natural disaster relief but aside that no
America has almost always relief on volunteer forces, barring the mid 20th century when you actually turned against the military and had things like draft riots.
Not really and most people cringe when veterans talk about the horrors of whatever war they hardly participated in, if not made things worse
Yeah you beaners worship drug cartels instead. All the Mexicans here worship Chapo Guzman
Depends on the person. Most people are supportive of vets, except for brainlets that can't distinguish the politicians from the soldiers. Lots of people outside of cities are 100% pro military
Can´t deny that there are people who do
They want easy money with no job
Im glad when they die
Civil War had draft riots too
Which adds to my argument. Americans respect volunteer forces but shit all over draft armies.
kek, you worship them by letting them become homeless? pretentious faggot "nation"
It's the same in the US. This doesn't preclude a general respect and admiration for those who choose to serve.
Bruh, the US is completely polarized about military worship, same for cops. A vet can get spit on and called a baby murderer by an angsty leftist, then awkwardly worshipped in public by a overly reactionary Conservative.
Either way, soldiers shouldn’t be blamed for the ills of their commander/government. Don’t lash out at the people who are just following orders.
In Azores, maybe. The military used to help a lot the people there. In the continent we don't really think about it. People go to the military because it's a steady job and after the first hard years you don't really have to do much more than the average worker and still get a lot of benefits from the state. I personally wouldn't go to the military with the state of the world because I don't want to fight in a stupid war
based
Can I come and serve? I always wanted to serve a decent country.
Cucks
And won 0
>We Americans do
No, you don't. America veterans are dieing in the streets as homeless.
>lost
>made billions of dollars
pick one
People generally respect them
Yes, some people do amazing things on a daily basis. Met this TACP at uni, dude is most down to earth person that’s done crazy shit. Never once brought it up
Those are 99% dishonorable discharge
You only get in wars after shit has happened to Europe and you have made a nice profit out of it. That's how you survive. By making other people miserable and taking advantage of it. But still think you are morally superior and should be the police of the world.
I am waiting the day that America news use this image to claim that Russians are abusing humans rights from their prisoners in Syria.
Still better than traditional imperialism and colonialism
Cringe
The EU supports it and even participates so you're just as guilty
My problem with Americans is that you have no History whatsoever but think you are the greatest. Of course Europe made its mistakes but at least we're learning. Americans on the other hand just blindly ignore and proudly claim they are the best
14% of your homeless males
are veterans. The majority are white and served overseas...
Wow it’s like Europeans don’t do the exact same fucking thing
This is how that comics ended?
Europeans didn't choose to dismantle their empires. All it would take is one European country to do it again and the rest would fall behind. The only reason your entire continent is ok with being in a pact is because you're weak and you have the worlds largest military in world history protecting you. if america and russia were to suddenly dissapear then the EU would quickly fall apart
that's not an ignorant thing, it's a nationalist thing. People in Europe used to be proud of their countries too
You are delusional. Could not even conquer the entire Afghanistan until today...
Conquering Afghanistan was never the objective silly
Have you ever conquered a entire country?
America lives in the shadows of what Europe once did. They fail to acknowledge that even their language is a result of the great British empire, the biggest empire that the world ever saw.
Mexico
We've conquered the western US, Phillipines, Hawaii, Cuba, Peurto Rico, Germany, Japan, Iraq, and Kuwait.
He said "a entire"
We too stole clay from out neighbors. Nothing to be proud of.
Half of them could not put a decent fight, Japan surrender and was never colonized, Kuwait has liberated by your country, no occupied. Germany was defeated by USSR, your country did not even take the capital. And Iraq is a hell of a mess, pretty sure your country is proud of the output.
Did we not? We made them capitulate and gained a shit ton of territory
Soybeans boy
>Germany was defeated by USSR
With foreign aid from the US
nice commie propaganda
>Germany was defeated by USSR,
fuck off. they couldn't do shit without our money. unlimited cannon fodder is not enough to win wars
>half of them did not put up a decent fight
why does it matter? we got what we wanted
>USSR defeated germany
well it's easy to defeat a country that doesn't have any ammunition left because all of it's factories were bombed to shit
>200+ years of greatness
>no history
America > Europe. That's all you need to know.
Yes, they had help from US, but the help was pretty much irrelevant from the war effort.
Your country just got the next big leap because could afford decent wages for the best Europeans scientist during the time that Europe was rebuilding itself.
I wish it was commie propaganda. Your government threat vets like trash. Both presidential candidates acknowledge that, but no one solve shit.
Veterans get nice pensions
Japan was our only true opponent who put up a huge fight. Germany is a close third. Mostly Asian people though

That's because we openly talk about our problems and when a vet is not treated fairly, it is always big news. In most other countries nobody gives a shit so everything is fine there. Same with every single problem people are memeing about here. Police brutality, health care etc etc. Not everything is perfect but we want to get better so we talk about our problems even if exaggerating a bit to draw attention to the problem. That's what makes us so great.
>Your government threat vets like trash
And what does your country do. Not pay their police or military veterans
Is not that easy. Many can't find a place back in their homeland and end up drinking or using dope.
I remember to read that the suicide rate for ex USA combatants is the highs in the world.
My country doesn't even have a military.
That's an entirely different issue. Many can't hold stable jobs because of PTSD.
Well nothing is ever easy. But the way our servicemen are treated, there is literally nothing to be ashamed of apart from isolated incidents.
>And what does your country do
First, we did not take part in a war since germany decided to sink some of our trade ships.
We do take part in peace operations, like Haiti, East Timor and some god forsaken countries in africa. But never with a military agenda, only as peaceful help.
Our vets are 40's old (since we don't do war, military is hight profitable) retired.
>Not pay their police or military veterans
Military never strike. Police some times strike for better payments (never happened in my state, but two years ago a entire state was in purge state until the military drove tanks to the streets and shoot a bunch of apes).
Brazil flag is right. Edgy pathetic teenagers who think Vets enjoy a comfy life are spoiled fucking scum.
Not my point. Some vets actually have a nice life because they manage to get the right support form the people around them.
I never claim that all vets are threat like thief in America. But some do.
My uncle was stationed in Korea for 15 years and now he gets $1700 every month for the rest of his life
literally a good thing, why else would they be in guantanamo? they should be dead
i think it was a joke chapter
How many of those kids lives was vietnam worth then? Must be a number if it's about profit to you?
>Colonial empire trying to guilt trip me
oh please
Nothing like an american to pull out while losing and blame another country in the process eh...
Cough “India’s subjugation” cough
we never blamed anybody else for Vietnam
But the Brits promised Freedom to Indians if they fought the WWII. They really tried to back it off, but at the end, they keep they promise.
Yeah it was shitty of us to do. I can admit that. Can't you admit that something your country did was also kinda shitty instead of just claiming profit as a post fuck up proclamation of reward?
Nice quads tho
You don’t think we do. Surprisingly Vietnam likes us a lot even though we, France, and China did shitty things to them. In fact several of the NVA vets are friends with the US ones who were there
Seen here as a "passage rite" for males.
Could not go because c-papieren, no civil service either. Would've rather went to prison (which is an option btw) than do free work for the state. Done enough of that shit.
I have nothing against army but its not for everyone so some people should be left out and most often they are weed out.
It's seen as a job like any other job. Some girls have a thing for uniforms, so that's a thing.
Everybody served in military here so it's nothing uncommon. However, if you're about people who work in army, well...it's very complicated. Altogether we respect them a lot but they don't get any serious social support.
all the military guys i ever met irl were either douchebags or cucks
