Veterans make up about 7% of all homeless adults in the U.S.
even though they only represent around 6% of the total U.S. population.

In his defense, he doesn't think of them as people.
I would say these ghouls don't think of anyone that is not a part of the ruling class as people.
They pretend they care when children are shot in school shootings. But when one of their loyal soldiers is the target, that's when you get to see what their reaction is like when they actually care.
If you reading this actually care about progress and results and not just arrows next to your comments and emotional validation, I highly encourage you to contact FOX news and add your voice to the wave of pressure to fire Kilmeade, but don't fucking stop there, keep spreading the clip of his rhetoric on every social media platform you're currently addicted to. Recruit others to do the same.
Will it make a difference? Who knows, but whether or not it's going to cure you of "nothing ever happens" syndrome should never be the point of going out of your way to do something that doesn't feel rewarding. Get off your asses. MOBILIZE EVEN IF IT'S THIS ONE STUPID THING.
Consider it practice for if the left ever decides it wants to try uniting.
edit: Also, please frame it in ways that make FOX look bad to its own viewership, stop posting your own identity politics expecting the dumbest people in the world to care, start stabbing them in the kidney with lines like "FOX HOST WANTS TO EUTHANIZE US VETERANS IN THE STREET IS THIS THE AMERICA YOU GREW UP IN??" seriously, learn some clickbait hype and stop taking the high road you pansies.
Edit 2: Weowee wow, sure would suck for advertisers on FOX news if people started tagging them with clips of Kilmeade advocating for murdering innocent people. Sure would suck if there were publically accessible lists of FOX news advertisers and sponsors.
seriously, learn some clickbait hype and stop taking the high road you pansies
Fucking PREACH! The conservatives have absolutely whipped our ass on the propaganda front and I have no qualms fighting fire with fire.
The best part is that you don’t need propaganda on the lying or omitting truth sense. All you need is the spine to say loudly what they’re already saying themselves in a critical way instead of a supportive one.
Seriously, it's become a meme. "How do we know Charlie Kirk's shooter wasn't a real leftist? He would have needed 300 more shell casings to etch in his nuanced and inclusive ideologies with every possible qualifier along with detailed explanations of every position he has and why..." etc, etc.
We need to rub our mangled country in their faces like a bad dog that shit all over the carpet. We need to hit them with their own short, strong, often offensive and stupid rhetoric until they feel shame.
How do you know when they're ashamed? Easy, they will get mad. Leftists remind me of the children of narcissistic parents, who spend their whole lives thinking they can craft the perfect argument, the perfect rebuttal, the correct sequence of lines and phrases to make their abuser suddenly realize how bad they've been and everyone will be happy.
That is NOT how conservative mindsets work, if it did, they wouldn't be clinging to conservatism. They are reactionaries and only know how to feel things in the moment and the moment keeps changing. That's why we have to be a lot "stupider" and a lot more consistent, but more importantly, we HAVE to start engaging directly with them more, we have to abandoned these cordoned off spaces and start sharing reality again so they feel social pressure.
They're like children deep inside, the anger and hate is a defense mechanism, but when they interact with you directly, they actually DO want your approval, they want to feel accepted or validated, and they will twist and rage if they don't get it. We need to start recognizing these tantrums for what they are.
Okay i'm done. (I'm not.)
Betty Bowers is a national treasure.
That's different, those vets are "spent", it would be so much easier if they all just, y'know, dropped dead.
Disgusting.
The kind of people who propose these things (murdering all homeless people) have no idea what they're saying. They're so detached from reality it might do them some good if they go touch some grass.
I'd like it if they became homeless.
well yeah, making common experience might install some common sense in them.
The hypocrisy is a feature, not a bug. Reasoning with them is like shooting an arrow at a target that doesn't exist.
calling out their hypocrisy VERBALLY is complimenting them. maybe we got better ways to call it out than with words
Fucking psychos.
Why did you make your post about veterans? Do you think willingness to kill brown people on the other side of the world for free collage makes you more deserving of not being hunted for sport?
