do you really think that?

"Hey guise, as a way to boost morale for our military, let's remind the people once a year of how many of them we've managed to get killed.".  Unlikely. Like the name suggests, it's day of memory for all those who have fallen.

Memorial Day is where you remember the soldier that died for some stupid cause, not the assholes who thought it up. You can mourn a soldier without agreeing with the reason they died.

I may be against our military agenda, but if a loved one died in a war I sure as shit wouldn't want some hippy talking shit about them, or dancing on their proverbial graves.

:dumbass:

It's all about glorifying martyrdom. Getting it into young people's mind that war is a chance to do something big that people will always honor. Well, I don't honor it. I spit on it because it's fucking bullshit. I don't honor junkies who OD, or people who die driving drunk, or people who get killed robbing liquor stores, or people who die defending a meaningless concept like 'country'

Now lock this thread or ban me because I know you can't stand this position. So fucking what? War is bullshit and I'll say it every fucking year.

Of course war is bullshit. Take Vietnam, for example. There was a draft, a huge number of people had to suffer through hell with very little say in the matter. They went into the jungle, got poisoned, mutilated, and traumatized  fighting an enemy that they could barely even find, and then they came back to people like you spitting on them. You're being very judgmental of people who may have even taken the same position as you. Memorial Day isn't just about supporting modern wars. It's about everyone who has given their lives in combat all over the world, ever. Your OP makes you sound extremely egocentric/western-focused, there have been other non-american lives lost in wars in the world.

So? Don't just follow along, then. Support the Japanese and French if you want. Speaking of the Japanese, do you consider the people who died at Hiroshima and Nagasaki not to be victims of war?

for many people: joining the military is a last resort to keep your life from falling apart.  I'm not gonna spit on them, just like I'm not gonna spit on a drug dealer trying to support his family.

War is unjust, but don't shoot the messenger(rather; shoot the messenger who already got shot).

I've always suspected and wondered if a certain type of individual is attracted to joining the military. And, if so, if that personality type is relatively incompatible for being a member of the military. In general, are many people who join the military the worst for being able to endure it?

A lot of people like that are actually pretty strong mentally. The "life falling apart" thing gets fixed with the military putting structure into the soldier's lives.
