Why do we hate the American military institution?

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

Do you think the military is responsible for making those decisions? I hate to break it to you, but it's like a half a dozen Boeing executives, three or so lobbyists, and (maybe) a congressman who decide that the entire country should do those things. Then they pass their orders along to a few generals, and the rest of the American population.

 
I don't know who actually makes  the decisions.

I am aware that president Eisenhower warned America about the military-Industrial complex as he left office. America ignored him. Probably a coincidence that  the US today spends more money on 'defence'  than any nation on earth. (in dollar terms)

Maybe winter and huggy can just marry each other, imagine the conversations.

Which pity party receives the most votes, will be king of the incels.

My New York Democrat Uncle once said to me, half seriously "Make sure you're always nice to America. Otherwise we'll bring you democracy"

Fear and hate are two sides of the same coin. It frightens me that one of the most militarily powerful nations on earth still practices gunboat diplomacy as it pursues its self appointed role of the world's policeman.

Just like the Mongol empire fell, America will. All nations fall someday -history proves it- and all nations pay for their sins.
Other forces are rising all the time. One force demolished the gates of the Capitol in this same year. Don't you think it will return? maybe install a "Russian/Zionist vassal" in D.C, and banish the democrats altogether next year?

Uhem, all religions will fall also, including Islam. 

While they last, some nations, such as america, can periodically become a motivating force behind human progress.

While it lasts, Islam will always remain a bane to human progress.

The US has its own history of its own citizens disliking the concept of war and the military complex. They were most outspoken during the sixties, I think.

"Witness the present Mexican war, the work of comparatively a few individuals using the standing government as their tool; for, in the outset, the people would not have consented to this measure."

--Henry David Thoreau (1849)

This is why it's so useful to have two parties who pretend to be different. 

You think if you vote out one of them, things will improve. Ha!
