Have you thought about the idea that you are some people on the internet?

That's not how it works. You don't get to pull out of your ass that a random career is dishonorable and pretend that it's everyone else's responsibility to fix your unsubstantiated accusation.

Either you have a valid reason to argue that a career is dishonorable, or you should just stay quiet.

You find it strange to consider murderers and torturers to be dishonorable?
