Veterans Day Protest at The South Carolina State House

Not exactly sure who organized this demonstration but around 80 to 100 people showed up at the State House in Columbia, SC to the Tangerine Hitler and Elmo Musk's DOGE cuts affecting veterans benefits. The large guy in the center holding the flag is me.

 

Honestly, I was worried how the State House security guys would act. While we were there protesting the cuts to veterans programs, our chants quickly turned to calling for Trump's ousting from office and charged with treason.  But while security kept a close eye on us, they didn't get stupid.


I fucking despise Elon Musk. Musk is now the most dangerous man in the world, and I do mean he is a greater threat than Putin. He is suffering from a messiah complex and thinks its his mission to save Western Civilization from the forces of the "Woke Virus." His version of Western Civilization has people working 120 hours a week and living like Dark Age Europe serfs. More importantly Musk has no respect for basic human rights, to him were just animals.  

The level of intelligence displayed by the average Trump loving MAGAt is terrifying by itself. But what is worse is how Trump had essentially declared war on not only our European allies but fucking Canada. Our relationship with the Free World is destroyed. None of our allies will ever trust us again. The part in all this that should scare every American is that there will come a time when we need our friends and they will not come.


I was nothing special while in the active US Army and the the South Carolina National Guard. I was just an average soldier. But it truly disturbs me that a deviant slug who avoided the Vietnam draft by using the excuse of bone spurs.

In a move that comes straight from a badly written comedy Trump's DoD has removed pictures of the B-29 that dropped the atomic bombs on Japan. The reason? That bomber was named "Enola Gay" which upset the homophobic, incompetent asshole now running the military. For those who don't know the Enola Gay was named after the pilot's, Colonel Paul Tibbets' mom.

I was also expecting slack from Trump supporters driving by the State House. But we only had two I know about that talked shit to us while driving by. I have no illusions that our little protest scared anyone of power in South Carolina. The ignorant MAGAts here have drank Trump's delusional Kool-Aid, they are lost. But we did make our presence known and for now that's good enough.

Good for you for protesting! I'm feeling like I should be doing something, but it's tricky because I work for the City of Hickory (in HR no less), so I worry about losing my job.

The maga movement is tanking the stock market, along with Tesla stock. Karma is a bitch.
