Mi amigo, you are still responding to something I never said, and are completely missing the point.
“The US”, “the military”. Those are groups.
“Andrew the sheet metal tech”, “Tina the line cook”. Those are individuals.
You’re responding about groups to my post about individuals.
If Andrew and Tina are a tech/cook in the Army, then they both swore an oath that obligates them to defend against enemies like Donald Trump. It doesn’t matter that you disapprove of Tina’s employer. If Tina is ever assigned to cook for Air Force One, then she’ll be uniquely suited to become a global hero by taking that oath seriously. It doesn’t matter what you think of the oath, it matters what Tina does.
Do you see the difference? The Army (group) is not your ally. Tina (individual) can be. We can encourage Tina to do what’s right even if we know her employer never will.
Why are you so opposed to that? Or rather, what do you seek to accomplish by opposing that? Would you have Tina shy away from her oath if she’s presented with the opportunity to act on it? That doesn’t serve you. It does serve Trump. Extra fuck’s sake.
