Many of the anarchists who advance freedom, have previously been soldiers, sailors and Marines (such as myself). The thing that opened their eyes, drove them toward anarchism and toward resistance to the state, was that experience. E.g. Vietnam Vets Against the War, or the WWI Christmas Truce...<br /><br />However it is true that many vets never do open their eyes, and still think they fought for freedom. Whenever this comes up in forums though, I do my best to correct it.Paul Bonneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15279129269584372919noreply@blogger.com
