    The best ways to turn military against you is a) don’t pay them, b) don’t feed them, and c) don’t give a damn about the survival of the soldiers.

      I’m not so sure - the Republicans tend to treat veterans like absolute shit and yet, the military seems to have its share of conservatives that cannot stop humping the legs of Republicans.

        That’s because most people don’t realize that only 18% of veterans get the full benefits they’re entitled to.

          Even the ones that realize that are dense enough to think they will be one of the 18%

          Its the same reason conservatives are often class traitors. They think they will get lucky and be a billionaire someday.

        oh its not by accident, gop/DNC sources alot of them from more conservative areas where the education is poor and likely ecominic situation is equally bad, they tend to be white. next demographics are middle-low POC areas where they arnt poor but not rich enough to pay tuition for college fully, its probably some collusion going on with 4 year universities and expensive colleges or mid-tier.

      C is always selected. b) just feed them barely, so they dont revolt even if its low-grade slop. a)they pay them very low, but enough for not to revolt or try to leave the service.

      also provide them clean sanitation, apparently they wernt doing that on one of the warships.
