The idea they've been successfully pushing for 50+ years is that the military is always defending our freedoms, which is a blatant lie. The military industrial complex campaigns that whenever soldiers are operating overseas - somehow it benefits you and I. Yet another of the millions of lies sold to the general public.
When I joined, back in '98, it was before any of this GWOT crap had kicked off. I was under the impression it would be for protecting the country.
I spent a sizeable portion of my life being manipulated, thinking I was part of the big stick Uncle Sam used to protect the country I loved.
What the actual fuck, man? Why can't we, for the first time in 80+ years be used for that? It might even be more than that because Pearl Harbor was somewhat dubious but I won't go into that.
Fuck, I say we like I'm still a cog in the machine. The indoctrination runs deep.

Pearl Harbor was used to sway public opinion on joining the world war in Europe, because formerly, Americans favored isolationism.
We could use a little bit of that today. Globalism has done us no favors.
Globalism has hurt American workers and families more so than any other cause or reason.
