    Have you not seen how often Trump has disrespected the millitary?

    It’s mind-boggling that he gets away with it, even while everyday Americans reflexively say “thank you for your service” any time they encounter a soldier or veteran.

      I guess flags and pleading allegiance at schools has its effects.

      Yeah I have. It’s bonkers, but it is also indicative of our culture. sadly. That’s why I made a joke comparing the government’s exploitation and mistreatment of military members with the rest of the economy’s exploitation and mistreatment of all the other normal people. In both cases, the people in power are choosing “number goes up a little bit faster than before” over “human life and well being” repeatedly.
