Sociopath Community

Why does killing people not bother me?

Well, beyond my very flexible sense of morality, I've been trained and conditioned to do it. I can view it from a utilitarian point of view. For control of an area sometimes strong arm intimidation is required. Even from a socio economics point of view with population on the rise, limited resources... Or even from a naturalist view, we are meant to live and die. It is human nature, If it was not our nature we wouldn't do it... Kill that is.

Many people are taught the sins of murder and conditioned to believe hell awaits those that commit it. But I don't believe in god. I believe in my brothers who I fight with. For my family who I fight for and myself. I protect the things that protect and care for me. This is the clan mentality our species has lived on sense the beginning.

I don't now what narcissism would have to do with the military. They do breed a sense of pride in you, but they emphasis the importance of the unit over the individual.  

"Nah the reason most people don't join is because they're pussies... deep down inside, they're afraid that one day they will get that call and have to give up the one thing they really have of value... Themselves..."

I couldn't disagree more! I was approached by the US Army some years back and sure they were offering great perks. They came to me, b/c I was multilingual and a foreign student I guess, offered me a green card and expedited process of getting the U.S. citizenship, free education, and some other stuff, I forget now. But what it meant to me was that they were running out of their own people interested in fighting their bullshit wars so they were trying to recruit foreigners. I would never want to be put in a position to have to go against my beliefs and/or my people, since we were bombed by the U.S. For me it was always a question of integrity, never courage. I'd rather die than betray my beliefs, or aid someone in their manipulative international politics and tactics, balls I've got, so that was never a deciding factor. I'm sure that there are many more like me, I don't think that it's nearly as simplistic as you portrayed it. No offense. ;)

Good to have you back Daddy! 

Cool story. Where you come from Bla? 

LoL, That's funny... The army was contacting you because of the MAVNI program.

It was a short lived program that was going on during the surge where they were doing alot of recruiting for linguists to be used used as soldiers that also  have a background in the culture and firm grasp of the language in a given area. They contacted hundreds of thousands of candidates because they had a very specific need.

To think we are lacking in recruits is ludicrous, in fact after the surge it has been progressively harder for people to get in the army due to downsizing (a common trend as a conflict dies down to save on national budget)

Even with the downsizing the most recent statistics puts the US Army right under 500,000 enlisted and just under 100,000 officers. That doesn't include the navy, marines, air force or coastguard. The fact of the matter is, the supply far exceeds the demand.

So your assumption is based totally in bullshit. That being said, you said you were bombed by Americans... that's a pretty extensive list... where are you from?
