    I sometimes think of when I took the asvab in high school and a classmate got a 7. Fucking 7.

    He’s a marine now, go figure.

      That’s what I’m saying, do you think the guy who can’t solve simple logic puzzles to see if you can fix trucks can untie the truth of the Iraq War or US imperialism? No probably not honestly.

      The seven doesnt even necessarily mean stupid sometimes its a complex failure by the US government. Ive met people in the US, younger than me, who were functionally illiterate or actually illiterate. We live in a very stupid place.
