I’m just shocked that anyone is surprised at what’s happening. They fucking published their playbook. They’re following their playbook. I feel like you’re not allowed to be surprised, given that context.
The only thing that’s surprising to me is the rate at which it’s happening, and that there seems to be nothing being done against it.
For real. It’s getting to be a struggle to muster the energy to be outraged, given all the ineptitude and fecklessness from anyone who could ostensibly do something to pump the brakes here.
And we are… two weeks in. Fuck me sideways.
This reads like someone screaming out a window that the building is on fire. This is a very citable factsheet for any vet that wanted to talk to someone about how they don't like it.
from a site that would rather talk about ROTC gossip, biopics and plane parts? not that i'm saying the rest of the site looks deep red, but i haven't gone to fetch the ladder yet. (eventual paywall)
Veterans' data is not special. Everyone's data matters.
Veteran's data isn't special. Conservatives claim to love Veterans though, and all of this harm being caused to DEI and federal workers is being done directly to Veterans (among the many other much more vulnerable groups).
I imagine people won't shut the fuck up about veterans getting ass fucked by trump and musk right now because it's the best way to get anyone who supports trump and musk to see the harm they're causing. Your racist uncle bill won't give a shit how black, trans, or hispanic people are getting treated. But he might give a shit about the veterans
