    This image has the same vibes as those valiant soldier on an airplane videos, giving up their metal folding chair for a pregnant woman so she can sit closer to the crooked LED strip lighting along the tiled floor.

      Oh man I despise those virtue-signaling apocryphal stories and images.

      All these suck-ups fawning over the story representing a “real man” and “real service” and always taking cheap shots at the scapegoats of “millennials” or whatever generation and probably libs too because those godless scapegoats haven’t an ounce of work ethic or courtesy in their bones. Then the train of people inserting their own time in the military in their comments “this is how real soldiers do it!” just begging for worshippers to thank them for their service.

      Heaven help you if you point out any glaring and major errors in the story that make it untrue. Like “Sergeant Abraham Lincoln didn’t serve in the Vietnam War bombing the commies with an F16 while wearing a top hat!”…because it doesn’t matter. They reply that story is good and we should worship our soldiers, how can you be so negative? Do you hate soldiers or something? You must be one of those commie libs!

      Fuck, these people are infuriating.
