    All of the military is brainwashed in some way or another, that’s literally what boot camp is designed to do. It’s just a lot more basic in the non-marine ones.

        You didn’t get just a tad of Stockholm Syndrome in basic?

        I remember when I was first issued my uniforms, I has this moment where I was like “They gave me clothes! I’m a person now!”

        Luckily I shook that shit quick, but, it was definitely a weird ass mindset to be in.
