# Military

Military is the official, highly hierarchical state terrorist organization specialized in killing, genocide, torture, destruction, rape and other oppression of people outside the country borders, mainly through physical force; the purpose of military is war for which it largely consists of army, a group of professional murderers who, for doing the most inhumane atrocities imaginable, get a great amount of benefits from the state, such as financial security and propaganda support (the title of hero). Military complements police, a similar organization which however specializes in killing people inside the country.

**Existence of army itself incites war** -- it costs money to maintain an army, soldiers are non-working men at the top of their working potential, they are idle, have to be fed, accommodated, trained, military technology has to be maintained, updated etc., i.e. it cost huge amounts of money to simply have army existing. If it is not fighting a war, the money is completely lost -- the country is paying for a tool it is not using. If war is fought, there will be losses but there will also be considerable return of this investment in army, e.g. the newly acquired land and its resources, as well as weakened enemy and therefore greater comparative power and control. Therefore **investing in army always economically pressures for starting a war**.

**Military is exemplified hierarchy**, something that must make any anarchist sick to the stomach. Armies maintain very complex systems of ranks from privates to generals, which are strictly marked with uniform and medals, and which must be honored above anything else. Orders of higher ranking members must be executed blindly and disobedience is severely punished with physical violence. It's no secret that bullying is an essential, inherent mechanism used to establish discipline in the army. If you dream of hierarchical society with highly established order, go join the army, it's basically your ideal society.

**If you can, get military tech**, e.g. from army shops etc., however be sure to get the true army stuff, not just something branded as such though, as there's a lot of stuff labeled "military grade" only for marketing. The reason is that military gets (or at least SHOULD get) the best, most resilient and reliable technology -- unlike consumer technology, which is designed to break on purpose and never last very long, the army needs reliable, durable tools that last long, work in harsh conditions and can be repaired in the field. So if you can get your hands on a military laptop or something, it's probably worth taking it.
