Is a youtube black comedy skit of a kid handing a US soldier a grenade pin funny or horrifying? Well I think it’s fucking hilarious, but uh, PTSD trigger warning for any Iraq War Vets and also trigger warning for any Iraqi Civilians that survived being massacred by the American Empire.
It’s interesting though, that some folks think she’s doing American Imperialist psyop with her videos. One commenter pointed out that her equipment wasn’t Iraq issued and she’s lying about a being a Vet, but another commenter (and vet) pointed out that their stuff was confiscated, so it wouldn’t have been possible for her to be sporting accurate gear.
Other folks think she’s criticizing American Imperialism as a Iraqi War vet with PTSD. That’s an interesting divide amongst her fans.
For the record, I don’t think she’s a psyop. A proper psyop so obvious mock the war. Unless the Pentagon’s meme department is super advanced, I’d like to think that I am still ahead of the meme war as a meme-content creator veteran of the Trump years.
What she’s definitely doing though, is being a thirst trap with guns. In the immortal words of Sera Victoria (from Team Four Star’s Hellsing Abridged): “Bitches love cannons”. Valkyrie Brynn here embodies this concept.
