I appreciate what you’re doing, but refusing orders is not as easy as this image makes it sound. Realistically, we have to hope entire units refuse to execute orders. Individual soldiers will not have the power to take this type of action alone.

You underestimate how many liberals have armed themselves over the last several months. Unlike the 2A notions, they don’t advertise it. People are afraid that their freedoms are being stripped from them. When people become desperate, they will fight no matter the odds.

I was stationed in Leesville for a few years. It was the only time I ever had to tell my soldiers to never stop in specific towns because of the KKK and neo-Nazis that live there. SE Texas and Western Louisiana are no joke with the racism.

Trump getting out of his death bed to go golf and pretend he’s not a 79 year-old man with severe congestion heart failure.

MAGA: “But Trump said he’d stop the wars.” The rest of us: “You actually believe that bullshit?”

I believe these waivers should be illegal. If a company cannot guarantee the safety of people on their premises, then they should not be operating.

These republicans like to pretend that they have power. I say it’s time we shove them in a trash can like the weaklings they are.

These whiskey makers should be whining to our president down here, not to Canada. I mean, my country (for reasons still lost on me) started this trade war. Canadians have every right to stick it to us and boycott my country.

Oh, I never said I agree with it. This is just a plainly stated fact. For what she did, I think she should have been buried in a shallow grave for the coyotes to dig her up. But, I’m a veteran who doesn’t attempt to overthrow my country for a dictator.

Same here.
Chris Burd (@cb253tx.bsky.social) reply parent
So, this is a bunch of political theater. As a veteran, her family was entitled to a funeral with honors. Trump is playing thing up because of his tariffs, the Epstein files, and his illegal redistricting play.

Yes. People need to wake the fuck up to this reality. As long as the useful idiot is alive and in office, we are living under the thumb of a dictator. I refuse to let these sorry fascist fucks take my freedoms away. I’ll be damned if lose our democracy to them. Come get some motherfuckers!

So, when do we just drop the act and start physically fighting the civil war? The dictator and his people are acting like they’re at war with us. Let’s given him what they’re looking for. There’s way more of us than them. Just speaking honestly.

Honestly, if it was easy, I’d pick up and move from Washington state to BC. Would rather live up there as naturalized Canadian than deal with this sinking ship. It’s not an easy decision to make. Hopefully, we can get our shit together down here one day.
Chris Burd (@cb253tx.bsky.social) reply parent
No. Thank you!!! I had the privilege to train with Canadian troops once during my career. Y’all have great military service members representing The North.

I’m a retired Army veteran. Cynicism and sarcasm mixed with semi-violent humor is kinda my thing. But seriously, my brakes might just “spontaneously” stop working if I ever encounter the Trump family while driving.

Governor, we cannot afford a business as usual approach to governance right now. The threat is too high. Trump is trying to rig the game, and use force to intimidate people. What will you do to stop him?
Chris Burd (@cb253tx.bsky.social) reply parent
Please stop looking at the republicans to help. They are obviously more willing to help Trump before Americans. Play hard ball.
Chris Burd (@cb253tx.bsky.social) reply parent
I’m fucking sick of these fascists running the country. At some point we need to stop trying to remain peaceful and start disrupting them using any means necessary.

The GOP/MAGA mantra is obviously, “Heads: I win. Tails: You lose.” To beat back these people threatening our democratic society, Democrats must adopt the mantra of, “I’m just going to take your coin and break the hand holding it.” The GOP are all cowards and will not fight back. Punch them - hard.

Stewart Rhodes was a shitbag as a soldier, and he’s still a shitbag. If Trump calls up the Insurrection Act, I will fight his will fight his militia. We don’t serve kings, and I will not bow! Moral of this story: Don’t fuck with a retired veteran still willing to die to for his fellow Americans.
