    I’d be very surprised if any of them actually did.

    They are all cut from the same cloth. I personally know veterans that eat up the rights propaganda while believing everyone else is wrong.

    When someone brings up Republican dog whistles they can’t stop themselves from joining in.

    All the Right has to do is say “something something America!” and they’ll just follow orders. Literally the way it was conditioned into them.

        I support you. Chronically internet driven people like person replying to you generally don’t talk to veterans, don’t understand the military, and don’t really care about you.

          I know. Trolls are going to troll because they like getting people worked up. It is the little power they can muster for thier sad life. I have nothing but pitty for them. I learned a long time ago that the best thing to do is just let them stew in thier own pissed filled diaper and ignore them. Any reply just gets them going.

            I’m not a troll or any of those other things. Let’s see who is right or wrong in the end.

            I’d rather be wrong but I’m not naive.

        You sure you’re a veteran? You immediately cut and run at the first sign of trouble?

        Those colors are super runny, I guess. Must be watercolors.

        Sorry I offended you.

        That’s fair. I won’t put all veterans or active duty in the same group.

        I do expect to see military stepping with law enforcement while knocking people’s doors down.

        Expecting anything else would make me a fool after seeing what has already been done.

        I’d rather be surprised that they don’t than surprised that they do.

      2020 was the first time in decades that the majority of active duty military voted blue.
