I'm sure everyone's sick of me saying it... but I have this sense of patriotism that urges me to consider signing up with the armed forces.
But the current political climate makes me want to puke.
It's not that I think violence is a means to an end, but that I have a (perhaps flawed) sense of honour and civic duty.
Yes, despite the fact that I think most of humanity are a bunch of idiots... there's hope somewhere there and I want to do my part in upholding that. Because that's what ideally the military does... uphold the rights of citizens.
But ideally.
Ideally none of us would need weapons. So it's all a matter of how idealistic you want to get.
And the world is anything but near idealistic.
Fuck.
