Look at the lines of Military families having to stand in line to receive food. Federal workers and the military aren’t getting paid because of the MAGA shutdown which happened because Republicans are afraid the Epstein files will get released.

    They don’t though. If they did then no one ever would have been court martialed.

      Can you name a time in US history when the military as a whole rose up against the Federal Government?

        No. And there’s also never been a large reason to. Military coups normally don’t happen multiple times in the same nation, but to imply they can only happen if it’s happened before would be to say they never happen, which is obviously wrong.

        There have been many cases of service members standing up though. You’re saying they’re all bad, but that would be ignoring those people.

        The fact of the matter is you’re ignorant, but you’re also weaponizing your ignorance to hate people that you don’t understand. That’s called bigotry. I don’t handle bigots well.

          I’m not weaponizing anything. I’m saying there won’t be a military coup. I’m saying the military will not stop a fascist US government.

          This is the MOST LIKELY BY FAR scenario.

          Saying otherwise is weaponizing ignorance.
