Don’t want to share a link to LGBTQ Nation. You can google the subject line to find it. I saw it on Fox this morning.




quote:

I have long thought, though, about whom our country includes in its socially-constructed category of “veteran.” Currently, that classification remains limited to those honorably serving in our armed forces. And yes, this service and this profession has traditionally been determined by our society as honorable and noble work.


quote:

Can we as a nation begin now to consider expanding the category of “veteran” to include the diplomats and the mediators, those working in conflict resolution, and activists dedicated to preventing wars and to bringing existing wars to diplomatic resolution once they have begun? What about the practitioners of non-violent resistance in the face of tyranny and oppression?


quote:

Individuals who stand up and put their lives on the line to defend our country from threats to our national security, as those in our nation’s military do, are true patriots and veterans. But true patriots and veterans are also those who speak out, stand up, and put their lives on the line by actively advocating for justice, freedom, and liberty through peaceful means.

This is a legitimate sickness.


We just haven't properly named it yet.

Typical leftist move to control the language.

Just like they've done with 'marriage ' and 'gender'.

They are as much combat veterans as Richard Blumenthal is.

This, THIS is the kind of shite that pisses me off. To think that someone who is off in a foreign land fighting and dying is equal to these idiots who think they are fighting “tyranny” in our nation is absolutely sick. These people have no idea what sacrifice is, they think just because they are committing an abominable act that it classifies them as “brave” is just dumb.

Rant over.

horseshite articles occasionally appear in all periodicals. Did you bother reading the comments? They universally condemn the author for being idiotic.

This is what mental illness looks like going unchecked.

I seem to recall someone...I can't remember who that wrote about changing definitions to aid in achieving complete totalitarianism. Hmmm.
