You're going to be able to tell who works for a defense contractor by who is bothered by this meme.

Surprisingly little people thus far actually. If you replace it with someone working for financial capital and say the site were the twin towers, I think that would get enough people riled up LMAO.

(Probably have that meme myself somewhere)

I'd be fine working for a defense contractor, but those are attack and murder contractors. I'm ok with sending air defense to Ukraine. Sadly, that's not all those assholes do.

(And maybe we should start equipping Palestine schools and hospitals as well.)

Dan, the company man, felt loyalty to the corp

After 16 years of service, and a family to support

He actually started to believe the weaponry and chemicals were for national defense

Cause Danny had a mortgage and a boss to answer to

The guilty don't feel guilty, they learn not to

Few years ago chinese government did the same thing with Uyghurs. Nothing was done to stop it. Some far left wing organizations, and activists were protesting, trying to convince politicians to do something. Nothing was done.

What makes you think, that in the USA it will be a different story?
