Musk & Trump hate our military.
-
One of many things they hate.
-
Conservatives only love dead soldiers because they don't want or need anything.
-
And yet, the military keeps voting for him...

Nothing surprising here. Republicans, by far, treat veterans the worst. I've always found it wild a majority of veterans identify with them.

Lead poisoning and years of being brainwashed will do that to you.

Making homelessness great again!

Pushing to make trained killers homeless and desperate is definitely a move.
Yeah they seem hellbent on fucking over veterans. Just doesn't make sense to do that to a group of people that recently quit war.
To be fair, most veterans voted to be fucked over after literally being told by the guys they voted for they would be fucked over in project 2025.
That's certainly never had consequences before
Even the number of veterans are the same.
You don't need much training to commit mass murder with a semiautomatic weapon you bought from walmart. You just need money for ammo.
There is this propaganda (can't imagine where it comes from...) that the real danger are poor people. It isn't. It is middle and upper class people who have a dozen ARs in their closet who snap and decide to go on a killing spree.
And if you are going to pretend you care about military veterans: Maybe don't imply they are all one bad day away from going on a spree?
People aren't implying that they are more likely to snap, just that if they do it will be much more dangerous then the average person.
Their ability to shoot a gun is not what makes them dangerous. It's the strategic operation planning, explosives training, understanding of communications, battle logistics and OPSEC training that makes them a possible threat to the government.
If I were them, I'd be worried about targeted violence against me and my party more than random spree killings.
I am not worried about dying in a random shooting, generally.
You're right, I don't care about the plight of veterans any more than the plight of anyone else. If anything, I care slightly less because of their culpability in our military misadventures and the trail of death and destruction we've left in our wake.
That said, they should be taken care of. Like anyone else should be taken care of.
