https://wapo.st/4eAG2sx@petergleick Can't wait for the death toll in future wars on the US side to be higher for disease than for KIA 🥲

https://wapo.st/4eAG2sxOh, that’s great. I can just imagine the effect of pathogens sweeping through the military and what that does for combat readiness and execution of a war.

Oh goody. Flu will run rampant through a couple of the local school districts next year because of this dumbassery. Guess I should buy even more masks. -

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @petergleick I mean, considering what the American military has been used for for the past 150 years, wouldn't that be a good thing to anyone who values goodness?
"Oh no, the army won't be so efficient in their next Wounded Knee Massacre, or Marine Invasion of Haiti, or their carpet-bombing of Cambodia, or the next time they want to kill half a million Iraqis!"
It's a good thing if they all flu up.

Oh no. It’s magical thinking. They’re the best and fittest and because of that can’t catch flu, and even if they do, *they’ll* be fine, so they don’t need a vaccine!Even if they are fine, how many people who won’t be will they give it to? They don’t care, because those people are *weak*, so they don’t matter to the magical thinkers.

No, it really isn’t. It is a immoral crime to condition military to be bloodthirsty killers without restraint, and it is another immoral crime to condemn them to illness and death.

I read a very different message out of the disregard for vaccinating the troops:
The boots on the ground are disposable
