If someone is a democrat party member, that person is an extremist.

Hmmm. How many soldiers will keep their oath to protect the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic.

I wonder. I wonder how they will be discharged.

How will we the people know that they have successfully rooted out these infiltrated extremists? We will see large banners proclaiming the party line, slogans encouraging correct thought, officials handing out shit pocket sized books holding the correct thoughts as written by the current Resident or Xi Jinping.

By the time Deep State is finished, we will no longer have a military.

We’ll have a Praetorian Guard.

See 45.

We’re in big trouble when the military wants to kick out members who swear to obey the military oath they took to defend the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

"...a correlation between military experience and right-wing terrorism."

More LibTaint hijacking of the truth to fit narrative.

"a correlation between military experience and Patriotism." which LibTaints see as right-wing terrorism.

anybody seriously questioning such a thing identifies themselves as a peculiar kind of anti-American “extremists”

they will have the Praetorian Guard, we will have the military. there is a difference there, and they can only trust so many to keep their allegiance.

We won’t be allowed a military.

Just like we soon won’t have police.

Probably 65-70%, based on who they vote for and their criteria (Did they vote for Trump or Republicans, do they own personal firearms, do they think BLM and ANTIFA are sham movements).

Also, anyone who is a combat veteran is also not to be trusted. Especially if they supported Republicans during that time.

“Their objective is obviously to make our military forces resemble something like Antifa and BLM”

AND soon to be the tens of thousands illegals crashing our borders and given amnesty. Make no mistake, this is coming.

How do we square the oath the military takes, with the Biden coup that seemingly morphed the country into a banana republic?

Back in the day (’64) I aced every test, got four 96s where 96 was the max score. Was promised my choice of career field. Went in, through induction and all the testing then came “career day”. They sat me down with some sargeant who said your choices are IT, MP, or cook. I said MP (my dad was an MP). He said no, you don’t understand, your choices are IT, MP, or cook; in that order. I said, OK, MP.
He said, Son, you’re going to IT school. If you fail that you’ll go to MP school, if you fail that you’ll be a cook. Those are your choices, in that order, dismissed.
I got my choice, which was IT. I had no idea what IT was. Computers were only sci-fi in ‘64.

Funny way to give you a choice. I would be thrilled if he were offered IT training. Perhaps politics wouldn't ruin you if you were talented and useful.

My understanding is that the military is ignoring Austin.
