Are the military more politically active than the average joe or something?

I've seen at least 5 regulars here say they are or were part of the American military. What's up with that?

If you served during Obama, you were treated to displays of wokist bullshit that had not yet even begun to enter the mainstream consciousness until years and years later.

Such as his "you aren't allowed to shoot at the enemy if there are livestock nearby" rules of engagement policy, or his "men are considered guilty unless proven innocent" recission of the UCMJ, or the "nobody is making E6 this year unless they're a black female, or have 200 points more than normal" promotion policy.

Or my personal favorite, that fat dyke jewess who was touring TRADOC in 2009 giving speeches that the First Amendment shouldn't apply to men.

ah i see. That's interesting to know. They were trying to brainwash the military first it seems.

They were trying to demoralize the military.

Every year he was in office, war games were run by the Obama administration projecting the outcome of a civil war of red states vs blue states. I participated in one.

The red states won every time they ran the numbers, under the assumption that at least a full third of the US military deserted and joined them.

Obama was trying to tear the military down, because on the whole the military would have sided against him. And he heavily succeeded. Almost anyone worth a good goddamn got out.

I think it's worth remembering that yes, those people got out, but they still have their training, experience, and a newfound resentment for the federal government. Pretty much every American vet I know would undoubtedly be a rebel if the rubber hit the road again. Those people are still on the chessboard.

If vets weren't resentful of the feds during their service, they will after they interact with the US Department of Veteran Affairs. It's yet to top the "plz no suicide kthx" memo after the fall of Afghanistan under Biden.
