Had a MAGA hat wearing idiot tell my special needs grandson, “anyone with this hat is like Superman “ I walked over and said to him “names kryptonite don’t believe we’ve met” he slithered away quietly.
Thank you! I wanted to be a helicopter pilot but I messed up and tried to shove my feet through the bottom of a swimming pool and I have metal implants in my foot! I know a little bit about bone spurs and I really don’t like Commander Bone Spurs or anyone that supports him!
This happened in line at my dispo. A MAGA hat wearing dude told me he wanted to shake my hand and I told him no. He said excuse me and I told him to get fucked traitor. I told him the dipshit he voted for is dismantling our country with his blessing. He’s a traitor and I don’t want to touch him.
It's the vocal equivalent of those stupid magnetic yellow ribbons that were all the vogue in the early 2000s. What's even funnier is the song "Tie a yellow ribbon" isn't about a military member, it's about a PRISONER!
We don't know that in that last election. In fact, 2024 was screwed from 10 angles. 82 million eligible voters either did not register or did not cast a ballot for anyone. It's a reasonable assumption bc military creates its own reality.
I was unfit for service, but I love to see soldiers get that look in similar situations and go, "I DON'T SERVE TO BE THANKED, PAL." I tell them welcome home. Because I am delighted to see them home
Probably 50-60K? Most are in their mid to late 90s now. It’d be very interesting to seek them out and hear what they’re thinking. Good idea for a book or longform story
My great-uncle, who survived WWII in nazi Germany, came to the US, joined our military, and oversaw the health of nazi prisoners so they could stand trial for war crimes. He HATES Hitler but loves Trump. I can't for the life of me puzzle that one out. I'm mystified by it.
I had two great-uncles who were "Antifa." They "stormed" "Normandy." <3 One made it two weeks into France and died doing what he loved, killing Nazis. One died an old man at the VA. We need more antifascists
I have to balance wanting to say the exact thing in that situation (save time :) with wanting to try to dialogue. Not the same thing as trying to change their mind, but sometimes planting a seed is possible.
Just remember to be very careful when punching a nazi! Ensure your thumb is NOT behind your fingers, and that you keep your wrist straight! Don't want to get hurt, after all.
This was the prototype mix. @themckenziest.gay threw one back at me that had lovely fractal graphics and an underbeat and really lovely production value, will look for that one as well

I am a Christian but I would flip them off and shout “traitor” when I saw them. Didn’t have to break my Lenten swearing rules today.
Gone. 🕊️🗽🇺🇸
But had I done THAT it would be worth a thank you!
I fought to preserve this? Fuck!
