I’ve been thinking about this amped up conservative rhetoric that liberals and leftists hate America. We all know that’s BS. Right? Except it’s not, and we should respond to it for what it is.
“I love an America I grew up in. I love an America I believe in, that I lived most of my life in. Now, the idea of America that you’re fighting and “winning” for is killing that America I live in, that I love. So you’re right. I hate what you imagine America to be… because it is trying to murder the America that I love. And I don’t use the word “murder” lightly, and I apply it to you. And if that means to you that I hate America… then you’re right! The America you believe in isn’t lovable.”
That’s all.
I’m not really what would traditionally be considered a patriot. Look I don’t know what you hexbears are trying to do here, but I really don’t think it’s working. I, at least, am left with the impression you have more rage than good sense. Good luck with your hate. I’m not really about that.
being proud of global empire is not exactly peaceful intent, but I guess you don’t really care
What is more hateful, you being proud to have served in a genocidal fascist force of white supremacy, or pointing out that you have done so?
I’m proud of serving my country. I’m also proud to fight to make it better because we have a long way to go. That’s what we do. I kinda hope everyone in every country is fighting to make it better.
Disgusting. Your first sentence negates the rest.
By serving your country you contributed to genocide and hate crimes. That is not something to be proud of.
