Back in my day, the military considered groups like gangsters and white supremacists joining up and then taking that training back to their fellows a bad thing.

MAGA thinks the military is MAGA, while the military is more conservative than the general population but most are actual conservatives

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 9 points 1 year ago

MAGA are conservatives. The distinction between a conservative and a fascist is one of degree, not kind, so the military will be radicalized and/or purged until they become MAGA if they aren't already.

[-] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 3 points 1 year ago

MAGA isn’t conservatives, they’re mostly libertarians and populists. Every conservative in that camp has been pushed out of power.

[-] Eat_Your_Paisley@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

MAGA aren't conservative at all

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 4 points 1 year ago

Then what are they? Note: The original conservatives were royalists.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

There are many aspects of reality that MAGAts refuse to admit to themselves but understand on a subconscious level. That's why they're now making the military MAGA via leadership purges and actions like this.

[-] Hector@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Nowadays the military is the one hiring gangsters and extremists for leadership positions in the military.

I did nazi see that coming

Next time the us marines occupy my city will be much less scary but much more annoying.

[-] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 year ago

I dunno. A bunch of brain dead wackadoos running around with automatic weapons sounds pretty scary

Yes but they'll be so terminally online next time, that they'll get distracted by their phones all the time.

I could impale one on a spike and its teammates would try to debate me.

Make sure to show everyone how trump grieved kirk's death. Starts at 2 minutes and what Kimmel was fired for. I guess he was messing with their plans.

Starts at about 2 minutes.

They can't even get people to join ice with a $50k signing bonus. Good luck.

[-] Blackout@fedia.io 11 points 1 year ago

Got footage of their first recruits at boot camp: Trump's finest

[-] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

That's an insult to Randy bobandy

[-] Awkwardparticle@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

That is an insult to Cheeseburger Randy

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

[-] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

How many cheeseburgers does he have in that cheeseburger locker

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

go for it, recruit a bunch of those dweebs.

[-] Hector@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

I think naziing the armed forces is a mistake myself, not the least as they are planning on martial law declarations presided over by the military.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

they've had a bad white nationalist for the last 12 years at least. probably longer that's just when i started paying attention to it.
the people they'll recruit are Poppin Neck's true believers. you know, the kind of folk who worked at turning point. so a bunch of dweeby mormons and evangelicals who are so stuck in their past they keep going back to college over and over to talk at the students to feel popular?

[-] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Why? Did Kirk ever serve in the military?

[-] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago

With the world tipping into a world war, I welcome our Charlie Kirk brigades to train now and to be ready to ship out when things start up.

Their uniforms will be by Hugo boss

[-] minorkeys@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

So they are finding the people who would be willing to kill non conservative Americans and then will give them the skills to do so...

More the tools.

[-] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 3 points 1 year ago

Americans told me their military would never turn on civilians all the time. Well, reddit did to be clear when I still used it.

I guess they couldn't imagine the good guys all getting replaced first. So naive.

[-] TallonMetroid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That was always contingent on the brass not being treasonous shitbags. The rank-and-file were always a lost cause, because they run shit like FOXNews 24/7 in the public areas.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 4 points 1 year ago

I really thought this was The Onion for a moment.

[-] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

Send 'em to clear minefields in Ukraine.
