    Are you really saying poor people are too stupid to know that the US military is used mainly to fight wars in exploited countries for resources (aka 'we invaded them for oil')?

      88% of the US public supported military action in Afghanistan in 2001, so most Americans (at that time, anyway) would have been pretty clueless, poor or not. Many still are, and it's not too difficult to see why if you pay attention to US media/culture at all.

      literally 90% of people around me believe troops fight for our freedom, so if you are calling those people poor/stupid, then yes

          yeah, p much every American is brainwashed to believe serving in the military is among the most "honorable" and "self-less" things to do. obviously, with a leftist worldview, they would understand the awful things the military does/serves, just insulting them and calling them kid killers is just gonna further drive them away from any outside ideas and discredit anything you are saying
