It's crazy to me that all the US army vets aren't absolutely livid giving how they're getting bent over right now.
Then they'd have to admit everything they denied, ignored and downplayed was completely wrong and they screwed the country they said they loved by voting for hate, voting for greed, and voting to destroy their country and elect a dictator. Don't hold your breath.
They'll admit it, tearfully when all is lost, when they're on their deathbed. They'll not admit it now when things could still change, they've got years of hate and insecurity and misinformation piped into their skulls blinding them to work through. Their hate for the "other" was greater than their love of country, which is the essence of how fascism takes root.
If they were actually strong and love their country they'd be going public and taking it on the chin in progressive media and with their representatives and protesting. But they already took the bait that only bad guys protest, so they can't even do that. Imagine being so fucking thick you say that "antifascists" are the bad guys group...what the actual hell do they think that makes them?
