It’s very easy to take these things for granted when you’re not the one putting your neck on the line to fight for it.</p> </blockquote> <p>I’m not in the military and I don’t have family that serve, although I know many people that do. But I hear this argument a ton from (mostly) white Americans: you should thank a the military for having the ‘freedom’ that you do. I grew up in countries where the US military has bases and fights for its ‘freedom’ and it isn’t a party: it’s oppression and control and rape and economic destruction and infrastructure laid waste and very little that tastes like ‘freedom’.</p> <p>If by freedom you mean the freedom of mostly white, middle to upper-middle class US citizens to enjoy cheap fuel, sweatshop clothes and electronics comprised of metals mined on conflict zones where the US military is conveniently present, then you and I must be using wildly different dictionaries.<br/><br/>Since when did unstinting support for the military garner POC Americans civil rights, or LGBTQ Americans (especially trans americans) full human rights? And I hate, I HATE, this notion that LGBTQ folks and POC who serve in the US military are somehow more deserving of those rights than those that don’t. People don’t need to enlist in the US imperialistic, corporate war machine to deserve human rights.</p> <p>And before you say that the military has nothing to do with politicians or corporations, just follow the money trail and you’ll see what I mean. Yes, the average solider has no control over these factors, and yes, they are mostly from underprivileged backgrounds trying to pay for college or look after their families. But I’m sick of propaganda like the picture above oversimplifying the complex nature of their struggles and sacrifice for a sentimentalist trope erasing the role of corporate power (which in the US is increasingly the same as political power) in waging and CREATING war.</p> <p>And while we’re at it, why are these memes always white and heternormative? Why don’t memes about the historically unsung and erased soldiers of color never garner as much popularity as memes like the one above. Or memes about LG vets/ families? Or memes about people who are justifiably angered about the death of their loved ones? And when we talk about ‘support our troops’, why does that never include properly remembering the Black soldiers who served a country that saw them as only 3/5ths human, or Native Americans who were conveniently granted US citizenship when they were needed for America’s wars, or the undocumented soldiers enlisting because they have no other choice to protect themselves and their families from deportation/ violence?</p> <p>I’m not trying to disrespect military families. I can’t imagine what it’s like to have a close loved one serving. I’m just tired of the ‘single story’ (to quote Chimamanda Adichie) of the US army and what it means to serve. And I’m tired of the US claiming monopoly on ‘freedom’ when that ‘freedom’ only applies to people who are deemed worthy by an unjust system.</p> </blockquote> <p>^^</p>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23944854153http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23944854153Mon, 28 May 2012 12:24:13 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4peahv7c91qz6f9yo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://thisisnthappiness.com/post/23891579966/joseph-heller">nevver</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>— <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/show/18990">Joseph Heller</a></p> </blockquote>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23944059450http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23944059450Mon, 28 May 2012 12:11:09 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4ovp9IaTf1qzpqd1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881572832http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881572832Sun, 27 May 2012 13:11:17 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko4_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko1_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko7_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko3_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko5_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko8_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko2_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko9_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxltgovIXS1qb9jcko6_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><blockquote><small><strong><u>Adventures in Babysitting</u></strong> <em>(1987)</em><br/><em>“Tonight is going to be the greatest night of your life.”</em></small></blockquote> <p>I’m overdue for my 1000th viewing of this movie.</p>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881566615http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881566615Sun, 27 May 2012 13:11:11 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4onn5qT481qzcv7no1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://stream.pleated-jeans.com/post/23859406574/dogs-best-friend">pleatedjeans</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/AdviceAnimals/comments/u6vri/dogs_best_friend/">dog’s best friend</a></p> </blockquote>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881538774http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23881538774Sun, 27 May 2012 13:10:46 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3oup96ug71qb7gbyo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878602504http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878602504Sun, 27 May 2012 12:24:06 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4hvi8E6bh1qzdz41o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878334760http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878334760Sun, 27 May 2012 12:19:50 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4o1hu7X8q1qdcrmeo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878329439http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23878329439Sun, 27 May 2012 12:19:44 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls9dkhYsiv1qjkyqto1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846307139http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846307139Sat, 26 May 2012 22:26:44 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m49jwiFFrW1roqwwzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://80s-touch.tumblr.com/post/23341455718/http-jimrugg-com">80s-touch</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://jimrugg.com/"><a href="http://jimrugg.com/">http://jimrugg.com/</a></a></p> </blockquote>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846304501http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846304501Sat, 26 May 2012 22:26:41 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx0a2osl8Q1qf6k8ao1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846300594http://nonduality.tumblr.com/post/23846300594Sat, 26 May 2012 22:26:35 -0700
