    Let me ask this, have we (as the vanguard of the proletariat) sufficently exposed the horrors of U.S. imperialism? Have we successfully spread the truth of its barbarities far and wide, making known the vile acts committed under its banner, to ensure every worker understands that to enlist in its ranks is to partake in acts of moral reprehension?

    If our collective efforts have fallen short in permeating this critical perspective throughout society, within the working class, in opposition to prevailing propaganda narratives, how can we then maintain the position that enlisting is a moral choice? If we have failed in our duty to unveil the terrors behind the curtain, to educate and rally the proletariat against the imperialist colussus, how could we possess the moral authority to condemn those not awakened to our cause for enlisting in its ranks?

    It falls upon us, the vanguard, to disseminate the truths hidden by capitalist propaganda. To reveal to others what we have seen behind the curtain. The imperialist machine, garbed in the guise of national defense and humanitarian aid, cloaks its true nature from the masses. Its recruitment propaganda, shrewdly crafted, showcases deeds of disaster relief and domestic aid relief, yet remains silent on its crimes against humanity, its imperial conquests, and the blood spilled for profit and power. They wouldn’t show the quelling of riots, the wedding drone strikes, the massacres in the global south in their propaganda. This deceit mirrors the magician’s art: drawing the eye away from the sleight, the bloodied hand concealed behind a facade of benevolence. It is our imperative to intensify our efforts, to shatter the illusions cast by imperialism’s sorcerers. Rich men do not die in wars.
