It’s called “not being an idiot and realising you not having military doesn’t protect you from the despot one border over who does”. You should read up on it.

Hmm, but if I’m conquered by the despot one border over, then I suppose I have to start supporting his military. After all, I’d be an idiot to not support the only people protecting me from the other despite one border over, right?

  I guess you would just take the moral high ground, and allow anyone to take whatever is yours.

    Or I’d have to support people who actually fight for my interests instead of blindly licking boots and rallying around a flag.
    
    Your position can’t withstand even the slightest degree of scrutiny, lol. As expected of a bootlicker.

    I never said anything even remotely similar to “the military is inherently moral”. Is moral of you to put words in others’ mouths?
    
    Military in normal countries is used in times of peace to help fighting natural disasters, like floods. I don’t see that as immoral. Do you?
