perpetually outraged but also exhausted @kerrit.bsky.social

when in the last 150 years has anyone had to be “called up” to “defend” the us? they expected to kill people. you think they should be ashamed of raking leaves instead.

Of course not - but they could have been sent to Texas to help with flood recovery or our west to help with firefighting!

They’re following orders. They needn’t be ashamed, but they know it’s wrong. Horrible use of resources.
