The United States Military Is A Communist Organization. Thank God. Oh, And Happy Armistice Day! (November 12, 2018)
. . .
K “Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?”
J “According to the DD 214, from August 7, 1996 to March 16, 2004. Proudly and with distinction. And one is never an ‘ex’ Marine, one is always a ‘former’ Marine.”
. . .
K “They focus on the unit not the individual.”
J “They work an extra half hour to complete the mission without spending an hour and a half completing paperwork seeking two hours of comp time.”
K “They provide a single payer health care system collectively without bankrupting the individual while providing a basic human right.”
J “They do not try to distinguish themselves with expensive threads. Their uniforms are . . . uniform.”
K “They do not try to distinguish themselves with elaborate bouffants. They do sport crew cuts and everyone in the crew works together to make the cut.”
J “They do distinguish themselves by distinguishing themselves.”
K “They do get the job done.”
. . .
K “In theory, the military is subordinate to civilian control.”
J “In practice, for my entire life, the civilian controllers have needlessly killed and maimed the courageous and patriotic kids in the American military in unnecessary and illegal wars of aggression calculated and designed to create chaos and instability throughout the world.”
