the military gives funeral honors to terrorists literally all the time. this is not news.
So the Air Force is actively promotion insurrection and violent coups against the US. So noted.
The Air Force has had a problem with people more loyal to evangelicalism than the country for while now.
Now I’m curious: why the Air Force in particular?
Maybe the other services do to, but that’s the only one I have first hand experience with.
Is it because the Air Force is the “easiest”?
She was in the Air Force.
Ashli Babbitt, terrorist.
Insurrectionist Traitor
Nazi
Valid
You mean Ashli Babbitt the violent insurrectionist who was killed while attempting to attack Congress in direct violation of the oath she swore?
Ashli Babbitt the Traitor.

A fucking disgrace. Fuck Ashli Babbit. Fuck the Air Force. And Fuck Trump.
Really military honors of treason ? WTF
Whatever, she’s already dead. It’s not like she cares.
Funerals aren’t for the dead.
Yeah, they’re for the symbol minded.
*cymbal
That is not their point either. It is to virtue signal the submission of the airforce to Führer Trump.
They can virtue signal all they want. Trump is already the commander in chief. He runs the show, nothing changes by honoring a traitor.

Who cares? This is like the most inconsequential BS of anything around Trump. If this pushes more fringe traitors into violence, I say good. It’s about time Americans pay for their dumb choices. I’m on team destroy America and Trump is doing a bang-up job.
Yeah and any innocent people who die will just be acceptable collateral damage, right?
We had our chance and blew it. We are in this together, rise or fall. We can’t seem to figure out how to coexist or play nice, so now we pay. I’m fine with this as this country is sick to the core. A truly vile empire that will never escape its own violence. My faith in America has gone and I see no way of reclaiming it.
If they bury her in Arlington or give her any kind memorial plaque or stone that cannot stand. A lot of things I’m willing to let go of as a permanent scar on our history, but we don’t bury Nazis next to people that fought the Nazis.
I dunno, I think it’s about time they installed a urinal in Arlington.
I imagine there’s already plenty of them in there
I’m not surprised by this.
The US is in a civil war. I know it may not seem like it, because there aren’t necessarily organized armies and battle lines, but not all wars are fought that way, especially not in this day and age. But while the nature of war may have changed, some things have stayed the same.
In the first US civil war, Lee wanted to capture Washington DC, because if you control the US Federal government you control the United States of America. That’s still true. Well, guess who has control of the US Federal government. The liberals and the leftists are losing a war they didn’t even know they were fighting. My advice to liberals and my fellow leftists is: start fighting back, or get used to living under permanent Conservative rule.
Just remember, the French Revolution went on for years. At some point the tide will turn.
The guy who made the decision was fired from Space Force for doing right wing podcasts, wrote a book about Marxism in the military and asked Trump to root out “monsters” in the military who support diversity. He’s anti-vax, pro Jan 6, basically his brain is completely given over to any right wing racist concept or conspiracy theory you can think of.
Fucking gross
The insurrectionist and traitor to the United States? Cremate and leave her in the dustbin.
my read: this is an attempt to show the public that the military is unified in support for j6. i don’t buy it. something about this feels like someone swallowed their own pride and honor and self respect to make this ‘honorable’ funeral happen. someone trying to keep the peace. military officers are not ignorant of what j6 represents, in my admittedly anecdotal experience. for another thing, observe party commisar the honorable mr lohmeir’s name on the order, as opposed to any general staff officer’s.
it’s bad, very bad. but we’re not quite ready to start putting people against the wall yet. we’re still thinking about how we’re gonna get people to think about that first.
edit: the honorable mr lohmeir is a published author. I want you to guess the nature of his book before you click this link.
Nah, this is feeding the MAGA base. They have been ginning up conspiracies about her death since it happened, pushed by fox news/Tucker Carlson. They needed to find an excuse for one of their zealots being rightfully killed that day, in order to downplay the whole insurrection.
Her mom has kept the conspiracies alive, and conniving politicians have gone along with it because the media engine gives them a boost with the fanatics
This is just the latest example. MAGA can now go “see! She didn’t deserve to be shot! even though the air force says so!”
Yeah that seems plausible too. probably more plausible than my read tbh. i’m a little afraid my read may be tainted by copium.
I know an air force vet with expertise in Russian surveillance who has been working for US intelligence agencies after their service, going on four decades now. I see so much through this person’s perspective, not because they can tell me anything, but because I’m forced to be concerned for this friend every single day. This is absolutely a purposeful slap in the face and a declaration they want to take over the country illegally, whether we wake up and realize it or not. This regime is terrorizing its true patriots even just by constantly threatening their livelihoods.
