This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Based. Put the people who declared the war on the frontline.
That's often the case when it's a battle over shit like oil but for instance when Germany attacked Poland, it's the Poles' primary responsibility to fight for what is theirs. "Let the people who declared war be on the front line" okay well in this example that's Germany and you're going to lose everything your family ever worked for.
*if you and your family own stuff. Which is not the case for most working class people. The same working class getting shoved to the front lines.
Get out with this class essentialism.
Going from prole renting a shitty apartment who barely owns a car and a washing machine, to forcibly deported or forced to renounce your culture and teach your children the invader's language and culture is not "potato, potato".
Sometimes there are other things to fight for than capital, even if this might sound like a foreign concept to Westerners whose country hasn't been directly involved in a meaningful non-imperialist conflict since 1945.
Wars are always about profit of one or more sides. Abolish all governments and you will have no problem with nationalistic ocupation lol.
Right, I have abolished my government but the other guys have not. Now what?
