      Meanwhile a third of congress used their uniforms while campaigning being racist, bigoted, war profiteers. Just need to boilerplate “Use of imagery does not reflect opinion of DOD” or some lame shit like that.

      If I remember correctly the army manual or whatever is proudly saying that no american soldier has ideological lessons, unlike those damn commies/terrorists/whichever enemy is convenient currently

      They believe in nothing, and like it.

    https://old.reddit.com/r/Military/comments/1b00h4p/man_in_air_force_uniform_set_himself_on_fire_in/

    I didn’t see any support whatsoever. Most of them are open zionists, complain that it makes the military look bad, doubt that he’s the one committing the genocide, or complain that they’re going to get extra safety briefings.

    https://old.reddit.com/r/AirForce/comments/1b0kgwh/us_airman_dies_after_setting_himself_ablaze/

    The only allowed thread on the topic, 25 minutes ago (one day after it happened), heavily moderated to avoid politics. There’s suicide awareness pandering and recommendations that you talk to the chaplain if you ever feel like self-immolating to atone for committing genocide. One says that “This doesn’t change anything. Israel will remain our closest ally and rightfully so.” (+14) which is allowed under the no politics rule. A couple people call out Israel in sub-comments and they’re downvoted. Another said “Kind of sad it had to come to this. If this Airman was willing to die for a cause then he should have volunteered to go to Gaza and work as an aid worker.”, not mentioning that the aid workers are being bombed by the weapons that the USAF is delivering to Israel. Also allowed under the “no making fun of suicide” rule.

        That’s why I archived their threads on the subject. Whenever the ash settles and liberals trot out the old “don’t blame the troops. they were just pawns. they didn’t support the decisions they didn’t make.” lines, the one airman to take a stance against the genocide was mocked for it in a way that’s indistinguishable from the most Zionist or far-right communities’ responses. They’re universally enthusiastically complicit. The mods have to restrain them like feral animals to keep the subreddits from being banned by how much they hate the one dissenter brave enough to attach their name to it. The only comfort I can take from knowing they exist is knowing we’re at most a few years away from drone videos of them being torn apart by their victims.

      I found it by googling the first sentence.

      The post included a link to a live-stream of his protest on the web-broadcasting platform Twitch, which took down the video for violations of its community guidelines and terms of service.

      Shame. They could have monetized the fuck out of that display.
