(77,829 posts)Because your team saves your life over and over.
You support your team as much as possible.
I am the first one to jump in to help people here when they are ganged up on
or getting sharp elbows unfairly.
That said, people in the military know BS when they see it and certainly
know a major cluster F when they see it. And don't cover it up and pretend
they are at a gd Sunday school picture when the shit hits the fan. Especially
when your leaders lead you into an ambush or off a cliff.
So it is simple in my mind. We just saw another major cluster F by our leaders.
And I am not going to shut up about it because they did the same damn thing
regarding the last election about who is the candidate. A lot of backroom crap
leaving the base in the dark. Then pulling crap out of a hat after lying to us.
All of this DAMAGES THE TEAM. They had a lot of support and blew it.
The right thing to do is to call our leadership out, point out the facts, the damage, the wrong move.
Then hope they get their heads out of their asses and do the right thing.
Then we fall in line and move forward. Because there is a damn war we are trying to win.
We in the grip of the GOP fascist crime syndicate. Unless we get our act together we are doomed.
So there is a lot at stake and our leaders need to understand this and act accordingly.
