Feel this is a good accompanying piece for all the folk insisting on caping for a Blackwater merc wth a nazi tattoo because he said something they liked.

    This, again, speaks to your naivety. About military culture, about tattoo culture, etc.

    For YOU, it’s important to know everything about something you’re getting a tattoo of. But it’s EXTREMELY common in both military circle and tattoo circles to just get a tattoo of a thing. Because sometimes, for some people, it’s not about what the tattoo is, but the place, experience, memory of getting it. The art itself is the least important thing.

    That’s not you, and that’s okay… but to think that everyone thinks like you? Or should? Arrogance. Snobbish arrogance.

    Whatever man, sow division about shit. Don’t let people make mistakes and grow. Be insufferable. That’ll make the world better.

      Educate me on military [lack of] culture and tattoo subculture, is it let’s enroll anywhere they’ll give us a gun so we can shoot little brown people and let’s ink anything anywhere until society pays attention?

      So I don’t give a fuck what people do, you want to join Blackwater and do whatever shit they do, go ahead. Want to tattoo stupid nazi symbols you know nothing about? Suuuure. Just don’t expect a vote from educated people with actual culture. But then again it just occurred to me that there’s not so many of the latter, given the current level of US politics… This guy is probably at the right place at the right time. Carry on.

          All that money, the pain, the effort and nobody cares huh? It’s not your fault, it’s just everybody’s got them these days so nobody cares anymore…

            By the way mods, whoever removed SailorFuzz’s comment above, why did you do that? Now I look like an idiot making personal attacks for no reason. I’m not offended by the comment, please reinstate it so that people know who this guy is. It wasn’t even a slur, all they said was I was insufferable, come on. Thicker skin guys!
