    Yes, because fucking Rambo of all movies is about how bad american soldiers felt about what they did.

    Thanks for the laugh

        It’s funny, but it’s not true.

        It’s something like “the gallant people of Afghanistan” and always was.

            Possibly.

            It’s not out of the question because Afghanistan were on our side back then, and by on our side, I mean America gave them weapons to fight the Russians, and then abandoned them immediately the second Russia gave up.

            It’s just I’ve never seen any real evidence of it… It’s always just that one still which seems to be from a second or so before the real one.

      I think you’re confusing Rambo First Blood, which is about how fucked up he was after coming back from Vietnam, with the Rambo sequels, which are about how cool it is to blow stuff up.

      The first Rambo was definitely about PTSD and how the act of killing fucks up American soldiers.
