Are you friends with anyone who works on military projects, in the “defense” industry, is in the military or has served in the military in the past (same question for police)?
Do you attend events that include “thanking the troops”? Do you allow your kids to go on field trips that involve the military or cops? Do you go to war museums? Participate in or support Cadet programs?
Have you filed an objection to selective service (if you fall into the demographic that it applies to? Are you rude to recruiters? Do you protest recruitment offices if they open in your community?
If yes, then congrats on your gold star for the bare minimum. If not then maybe you and the other the 350 million Americans can ask themselves why they put their social comfort over human rights .
(And yes I do these things in my own country)

No, I’m not. No, I don’t attend or participate in any of that. Yes, I have. I don’t really need to prove to you that I’m rebelling in the right ways though. It’s a lot more nuanced and complicated than a lot of these comments want to make it out to be. There’s way more people here that are against the status quo than you want to believe, I think. This stuff doesn’t happen overnight.
