I like how you instantly assume I’m an American

I don't give a fuck where you're from.

I think equating antifa with war heroes is distasteful.

Yeah, I agree... equating people who voluntary stand up to fascists with those who has to be ordered to do so is extremely distasteful.

You can’t just try to expand the scope

Oh but I can, and I did - you want to pretend that the US military that particpated in WW2 is (somehow) completely unrelated to the US military that waged dirty mass-murder campaigns on the 3rd world both before and after WW2.

Yeah... no. I don't think so.

We were talking about fighting against fascism.

You mean that thing you haven't done a shred of so far?

Not everyone was drafted, you bell end. Plenty were there because they signed up.

I'm not bothered about what the US military has or hasn't done, frankly. I wasn't talking about the whole history of war, just that particular war and the alies, specifically.

And how do you know I've done nothing to fight fascism, anyway?

Stop being a sourpuss.

Your vapid ideology gave me a clue, liberal.
