15. As a veteran
Fri Apr 7, 2023, 10:11 AM
Apr 2023

From Vietnam era, we had no right to vote, but a mandate to go die for this country. The percentage of blacks and minorities outnumbered whites. The ones that came back mutilated, damaged physically and mentally are now having their voting rights stripped away again. By many white people that never served a fucking day for this country. As a white, we can never feel the outrage and disdain those veteran and their families right now. God bless America my ass. Right now that flag disgusts me. Mostly because those MAGA traitors fly it proudly, everywhere as representation of their form of supremacy rule. Most would shit on those deceased soldiers graves.
