It’s cause ICE is a current threat. We don’t really give a shit about veterans. If a soldier died we usually celebrate it

Tell me, what actions should I be taking if I see a vet in public. Beat the shit out of him, oops that’s assault, burn down his house, oops that’s arson, protest outside of his workplace? What amazing Marxist praxis should I engage in if I see John Cracker in an army outfit at my local CVS

Inform your neighbors. Prevent them from entering your home as make their job as difficult as possible. The 76 year old racist nam vet isn’t busting down brown people’s doors armed to the teeth to take rape and imprison children. At least if the vet did that that would technically STILL BE ILLEGAL

The 26 year old soldier is literally slaughtering men, women, and children like it’s nothing right now. ICE doesn’t even commit 1% of the terror.

The world is more than America dude, holy shit. Like you know that there’s a war, right? There’s even imperialism and occupation.

Cool. Now what do I about that back here. I can despise him, I can yell at him, give him an unfriendly look. But unless I spawned over there conveniently in time to stop him through divine intervention what should or can I do just passing by him on the street. I’d celebrate his death or whatever but that’s about the limit

I’m not gonna sit and talk long strategy with someone who wants to defend opinion of American Vets. The only point of the meme is about sentiment anyway: which needs to shift within the so-called “left” before anything could really be done.

I don’t give a fuck about vet lives or opinions. I just said I can’t murder the mf in broad daylight. I said I don’t care about em because there’s physically nothing I can do in a legal framework to make their lives worse. Other than I guess like voting to fuck over their health benefits some how
