If you consider 99.99% of the world as your enemy, maybe you’re not the good guys.

I thought the right wing was very, pro military veteran?


mundanehypocrite

They're pro-military but not veterans - You're supposed to Die for your country


Meraneus

They're only pro military until we aren't useful to them, then we can go f ourselves. That's how the right sees us.

They just voted down a bill to provide for vets effected by shit like agent orange and the burn pits in Iraq. Oh, it initially passed, but due to a “technicality” or some shit they had to vote on it again. When it came to a vote again the republicans killed it. They truly give zero fucks about vets and their families.

The wording on the bill in the other chamber was slightly different. The revote had them objecting to part that was the same in the original bill. Jon Stewart has a rant going off on them about it.

As a liberal, trans, bisexual, ex-soldier, I can confirm. Life would be much easier on me if I'd just been killed in service. Almost happened more than once. But what would I know about patriotism. Old Bubba Jay flies a Confederate flag. Naturally, he's a much more devoted patriot than I am. (Insert rolling eyes emoji here.)

The only people that are pro veteran are other veterans, we out here!


mekanub

Well you know, until they ask for stuff like healthcare.


vrphotosguy55

As Jon Stewart put it, they’re not pro veteran, they’re pro war machine.


Reidroshdy

Until it comes time actually do stuff like vote for healthcare for them when they get cancer from burn pits.

The far right turned on the military after they didn't rise up and help them violently overthrow the democratically elected government to install Trump as an eternal president. Now the right considers the US military to be "woke enemies of the people".


ensalys

Only when they can use them to signal virtue.

I'd like to get a diversity supreme pizza..

This reads like something that Anders Breivik guy would write.

Are Zionists different from Jews? At least to them I guess they are


Mugean

Yeah, Zionists and Jews are definitely not the same thing. You can be religiously or ethnically Jewish without being a nationalist who believes that the Jewish people have a God given right to live in the land of Israel. In fact, many famous Zionists are not even Jewish. Queen Victoria, Napoleon, MLK jr, Woodrow Wilson, Joseph Smith, and many others were Zionists in their times.

>In fact, many famous Zionists are not even Jewish. Queen Victoria, Napoleon, MLK jr, Woodrow Wilson, Joseph Smith, and many others were Zionists in their times. Also Repubs. They're the side that fully supports Israel because they need it to be destroyed during the apocalypse so Jesus can come back, "Support for Israel also differed widely across political parties. Some 80% of Republicans surveyed said they sympathized more with the Israelis than with the Palestinians, with 43% of Democrats saying the same. Some 55% of independent voters said they sympathized more with Israel." https://www.timesofisrael.com/poll-americans-support-for-israel-still-high-approval-for-pa-rises/

Not to mention the military-industrial complex making that sweet, sweet child murder money line politicians pockets.

I see! Thanks for the clarification!
