Why I Wear The Poppy



Why would a pacifist wear the poppy on Anzac day? (Remembrance or Veterans day for you overseas folk.) I generally oppose war as a solution to conflict situations, but I respect those who died fighting in our armed forces, whether their cause was right or wrong

(At some point I plan to write on different varieties of pacificism, not all pacifists are alike in their approach to various situations. For example there are "nuclear pacifists" who serve in the armed forces.)

Lest we forget.
