Sweetie, I served in the U.S. Army for six years, while I assume you were content with buying yellow ribbon car magnets to show off how "patriotic" you are. I took an oath you didn't have the courage to take. And my service is not yours to exploit. You're welcome.
Goddamn, I am so sick and tired of this National Anthem bullshit. These assholes watch "Band of Brothers" and think they're experts on military service. The white fragility is blatant and galling. The cowardice is embarrassing.
.@Bealsdeals7 Oh, you deleted it? What's wrong, coward? Don't wanna stand by your words like an adult?
I hate empty patriotism, especially when it is clearly being used as a mask for white fragility and supremacy. These racist shitheads don't give a damn about problems at the VA, veterans in the criminal justice system, etc. This isn't about "the troops". It's racism. Period.
