Currently I would says I. But that’s not because of the military that’s because of the politicians currently in charge

Say yes that is

Considering people in the military largely have a negative impression of the military; yes.

Of course it does. And rightfully so.

I guess that depends on the intelligence of the person that holds that opinion. Likely they were never in the military and mommy and daddy paid for their degree(s). They may think it is beneath them to serve their country. Then think it is a nice consolation to say “thank you for your service”. While it is nice to hear, how genuine is it when they have a negative opinion of the military?

If you think the US military is inherently more evil/corrupt and careless than other militaries you've been watching way to much CNN and spending way to much time on the wrong side of the internet.

I think it’s pretty up there in the developed world, and it being bigger and more involved in no excuse. But also there isn’t a fairytale military that does only good and protects their land.

When you refer to the military, do you mean the actual soldiers themselves or the super big wigs calling the shots? Not sure if I agree or not.

I don't wanna admit but, yes. However, it's the goverment telling the military where to fight. So that's not the militaries fault in first place.

Yes, the military does have a negative image in the US. This is due to a number of factors, such as the perception of the military being overly aggressive and violent, the perception that the military is too costly, and the perception that the military is used to advance political agendas.

No, I would not say that the military has a negative image in the US. Although there may be a few individuals who view the military in a negative light, the majority of Americans recognize and appreciate the service and sacrifices made by members of the military. I believe that the public perception of the military is overwhelmingly positive and that the American people hold the military in high regard.
