You need help dude, going after people like this because you can't read what they're writing is pretty alarming.

I've been at some festivals where the bartering system was alive and well! People would trade beer for camping chairs or a volleyball for some duct tape. Good times :)
Not 100% true: I know some places in Norway that have unreliable internet connectivity. They have terminals in the store that will save your purchase and wire it to the bank when connection is restored. Of course, this means you can over-draw your card, but I've never heard of that being a big issue in those small places.
This take just baffles me.. you can disapprove of a war, and still respect people willing to put their life on the line for something they believe is right. Even in war, opposing sides have a long history of showing their enemy a certain amount of personal respect, even though they clearly disagree about something to the point of killing each other over it.
Your take is just condescending and unempathetic. You can respect someone for sacrificing themselves without agreeing with them about what they're sacrificing themselves for. Regardless, it shouldn't be hard to see how someone fighting to depose an infamously brutal dictator (Iraq) or a fundamentalist regime that stones women for wanting a divorce (Afghanistan) can believe that they are doing something good.
This is what I mean. This is a classic example of a condescending way of talking to people. You really shouldn't be talking to people like this, it's not constructive at all and just makes you seem angry and like you have nothing better to say.
Nobody here is trying to fight you. If you don't have anything constructive to say you can just refrain from commenting.
