Fundamentally, ALL military forces are trained extremist terrorists (murder machines) and communist (totalitarian socialism without democracy) under a commander in chief to shield and expand tyranny. Try to change my mind.

The Nordic nations(IE Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and the Netherlands) had militaries for the entire 20th century that did not behave in the manner you describe. A military can be as evil or just as the people it serves, or a lot worse. Those nordic countries had militaries that did not operate in the manner you claim all militaries do. They protected the people of those nations, no more, and no less.

Would you say that those military structures were not a vertical hierarchy, a republic, a democracy, a monarchy - or consensus driven, open, transparent, or paid their own way by capitalistically earning the means somehow?

I'm not talking about their nature (good/evil) or their actions (peaceful/protecting/defensive/offensive) or anything other than their socialist totalitarian hierarchical structure.
