Is it wrong for a war veteran to not want to fight for their planet anymore?

[CheertheSecond]

In this parallel world, countries have been existing side by side for a very long time. We are talking about nations that had lasted for several tens of millennia. During the first millennium of these nations, they developed a very potent mutation serum that allowed those drank it a chance to grow indefinitely. Afraid that these enhanced people would betray them, these nations continuously trained new enhanced people while developing some kind of loyalty mechanism to ensure they could not turn against their own country.

As these enhanced people grew stronger and older, they could completely nullify the loyalty mechanism by themselves so these countries no longer had any leverage to force these people to fight for them. This is when these people who were nearly a-hundred-thousand-year-old decided they had fought for their nations enough. When one became strong and old enough to resist the loyalty mechanism themselves, each rejected the national rally and tended to their own self-decided retirement.

This begged the question. Is it wrong for these veterans who had spent millennia in service rejected the call to arms and ignored their own country even if these nations were in the brink of destruction? Can they choose to not interfere and sever themselves from the fate of their nations?

No, veterans do this all the time.

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Such a convoluted question about WH40K.

 

[Hoshino]

No. Its the the same with regicide-nya.

It's already enough that they didn't go against their nation with this loyalty mechanism "brain-washing" them for centuries.

The loyalty program does not brainwash them. It forces them to answer the rally for defense and makes them unable to take actions that cause direct harm to their nations. Except those 2 points, it does nothing else.

Yeah, that why I put sign, that not brainwash, but they still can't refuse, so they helped their nation and was in the frontline against their own will since the beginning.

If they're treated like such crap, and the very only thing that's tying them to said country, then I believe that the veteran not actively destroying them is already being kinder than the country deserves. Like, that's it? No money, women, power? Just some chip in the brain that my powerful muscles can crush after 50 someodd years of dragging your sorry asses from the brink of extinction? Weaksauce

Not really a chip. It's something mixed inside the serum itself.

Very normal, especially if they don't have any tie to the planet anymore, like family/friends, and are too broken to fight.
