Why do you fight, /k/? Pic somewhat related
>>29990062
i hunt the skinwalkers at night so pussies like you can leave the city and go on day walks in the forest safely.
To ask why we fight is to ask why the leaves fall. It is in their nature. Perhaps, there is a better question.
Why do we fight? To protect Home, and Family. To preserve Balance, and bring Harmony.
The true question is:
What is worth fighting for?
>>29990062
to win the war
>>29990062
god the cringe
>>29990106
Do explain
>>29990106
Agreed
>>29990216
Obvious samefagging right there. What exactly here is cringe?
>>29990265
If you read it seriously it's cringy. But who would be stupid enough to do that?
>>29990269
Read what, the text on the pic? You do realize it's a metaphor?
>>29990106
This
>>29990062
I fight to protect my country, family and friends beside me. Politics don't mean jack sh*t as soon as the first bullet cracks above you.
Because war is the way of man, and man is the means of war.
>>29990283
it's just super cringe worthy...it's something a 13 year old would say
>>29990566
Or a person who can feel empathy
>>29990549
Frank pls
I fight,, so the ones I care about don't have to.
I fight, because of my team mates around me.
I fight, to help those who need it.
I fight, because I know nothing else.
I don't fight for my government.
I don't fight for fun.
I don't fight for fame and fortune
I don't fight to kill.
Utrinque Paratus.

>>29990106
YEAH WELL I LIKE IT
>>29990062
Because it lets me touch all the shiny things.
>>29990691
Yeah, underaged people tend to like to think they can't feel empathy until they're actually in a situation where their empathy is forcibly exercised as a result of hard times.

>>29990062
>little girl prays for God to protect her family
>operators fall out of the sky and kill her dad and brothers, plant weapons on their corpses
>>29990062
I tell myself it's to protect my loved ones and my home, but sometimes I worry I just enjoy the fight for its own sake. It's not even the killing. They say you feel that rush of power when you take a man's life and you can't feel it anywhere else, but that's not what does it for me. Don't get me wrong it does feel good in the moment, but that's what makes me want to go back. I just feel at home in the shit and honestly it scares me. When I was a kid I read stories about knights and dragons and I wanted to be like that when I grew up. Gallant, shining in deed and purpose and always helping the innocent while upholding a higher code. But now I've grown up and I don't feel like that at all. I feel like the dragon.

My son and daughter. Wherever I need to go to make sure they can be safe here at home, I will.
And as an example for them. To show them that life is great. But you need to pay the price for what you love. And sometimes that price IS life. And no. Not the cringey "GOTTA DIE FO DIS". Not necessarily. I just want them to see me as an example of what hard work accomplishes.
>>29990549

>>29998096
Billy you can swear on the Internet. Mommy won't find out.
For those around me, as they fight for me.
For me, because i grew up sheltered and i enjoy growth through hardship.
It seems more complicated sometimes but it's quite easy if i just sit down and cut through the bullshit.
>>29990062
'Fight' in a less literal sense, but for myself because being the best me is the best way to be there for my wife and kids.
>>29990077
How do you go about hunting them? What weapons do you use? Do you hunt in teams? I feel they are a serious threat. Werewolves are the worst motherfuckers you can see.

Nope, don't freak, there's still real men in this world willing to fight

I have a little insight into this topic.
I was an Infantryman for ten years. I participacted in two tours of combat. Got my CIB for direct contact with enemy, exchanging fire more than a dozen times.
Why did I do it?
I just wanted to kill bad people. I wish I could spout off some noble cause but I was very young when I joined. I just wanted to kill bad people.
>>29990062
I pick fights with people on the internet.
>joining any modern military with the delusion of a noble cause

Its perfectly fine to fight for your homelands' interests. Just dont get in for the wrong reasons.
>>29990119
The belief that a HALO jumper is the equivalent of an angel sent by an actual deity to impose the will of that deity.
That the HALO jumper is actually jumping to defeat "evil". That the commanders of the HALO jumper even care about " good and evil" as opposed to accomplishing the political will of the jumper's nation state.
A soldier is an instrument of destruction. That for every little girl whose prayers are "answered" by this "angel" tens of thousands of other innocents will die in any modern conflict.
That someone is so weak minded that they can't accept the fact that there ARENT good guy and bad guys, that all of human activity is in the gray area, and have to mentally defend the actions of their governments by portraying the military as saviors or angels is rediculous.
>>29990106
Yep, this.
>>29990106
Were you this humble when you graduated HALO? Oh, you didn't? What a surprise.

>>29999184
I don't care who the fuck you are. If you actually believe you're an angel from heaven sent to rid the world of all its evil then you need to remove your head from your ass and realize that you're just a pawn in a political machine. Maybe a more specialized pawn, but still a pawn nonetheless.

Yup.
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Grow up.
“What happened next? I retain nothing from those terrible minutes except indistinct memories which flash into my mind with sudden brutality, like apparitions, among bursts and scenes and visions that are scarcely imaginable. It is difficult even to even to try to remember moments during which nothing is considered, foreseen, or understood, when there is nothing under a steel helmet but an astonishingly empty head and a pair of eyes which translate nothing more than would the eyes of an animal facing mortal danger. There is nothing but the rhythm of explosions, more or less distant, more or less violent, and the cries of madmen, to be classified later, according to the outcome of the battle, as the cries of heroes or of murderers. And there are the cries of the wounded, of the agonizingly dying, shrieking as they stare at a part of their body reduced to pulp, the cries of men touched by the shock of battle before everybody else, who run in any and every direction, howling like banshees. There are the tragic, unbelievable visions, which carry from one moment of nausea to another: guts splattered across the rubble and sprayed from one dying man to another; tightly riveted machines ripped like the belly of a cow which has just been sliced open, flaming and groaning; trees broken into tiny fragments; gaping windows pouring out torrents of billowing dust, dispersing into oblivion all that remains of a comfortable parlor...”
― Guy Sajer, The Forgotten Soldier
We will forsake our countries. We will leave our motherlands behind us, and become one with this Earth. We have no nation, no philosophy, no ideology. We go where we're needed - fighting not for country, not for government,
But for ourselves.
We need no reason to fight. We fight, because we are needed.

It makes no difference what men think of war. War endures. As well ask men what they think of stone. War was always here. Before man was, war waited for him. The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner. That is the way it was and will be. That way and not some other way.
All other trades are contained in that of war.
It endures because young men love it and old men love it in them. Those that fought, those that did not.
Suppose two men at cards with nothing to wager save their lives. Who has not heard such a tale? A turn of the card. The whole universe for such a player has labored clanking to this moment which will tell if he is to die at that man’s hand or that man at his. What more certain validation of a man’s worth could there be? This enhancement of the game to its ultimate state admits no argument concerning the notion of fate. The selection of one man over another is a preference absolute and irrevocable and it is a dull man indeed who could reckon so profound a decision without agency or significance either one. In such games as have for their stake the annihilation of the defeated the decisions are quite clear. This man holding this particular arrangement of cards in his hand is thereby removed from existence. This is the nature of war, whose stake is at once the game and the authority and the justification. Seen so, war is the truest form of divination. It is the testing of one’s will and the will of another within that larger will which because it binds them is therefore forced to select. War is the ultimate game because war is at last a forcing of the unity of existence. War is god.
