The Morality of the Military
I think the war, the humanitarian, quote unquote, interventions in the 90s really help to consolidate that image. The idea of intervention becomes tethered to a selfless act rather than any kind of national self interest. And then there's a sort of constant argument that the military itself is not political,. That politicians are making the decisions and the militaries is carrying them out. I mean, it makes no sense in the middle of these disastrous wars to think that the generals in the room are what will protect American democracy from Trump. It didn't make sense to me at least.
