System loyalty means justice for nobody
Honestly, military loyalty to the people is pretty much dead at this point. Just look back at what happened during the protests in Los Angeles and DC when Trump sent in the National Guard - they were supposed to defend everyone’s rights, but instead they either just stood around or ignored their oaths completely. No one in charge pushed back, because any general who might have stood up to Trump got fired and replaced with some MAGA loyalist who only cares about following orders, not the Constitution. It was obvious where this was going, but it still feels powerless watching it play out. Now Trump’s got ICE acting like his private army, actually doing the dirty work, while the National Guard is just there for show, making it look like the military’s “keeping order” without ever officially policing. If you think the regular military is going to suddenly save us, you haven’t been paying attention - it’s just loyalists left, and way too many of them are itching for any excuse to crack down on black and brown people. Fuck Trump, fuck ICE, fuck fascism.
