BeepApocalyptic beliefs are no longer fringe—and they’re shaping how people respond to global threats
in4apennyDoesn’t help that the US military are saying the recent war in Iran is to start a holy war and bring about the apocalypse. A death cult with nukes that want to take as many of us with them as they can. How is this being swept aside like every other “end of the world” theory? They’re actively orchestrating it.
Who exactly has been saying, officially on behalf of the U.S. military, that this is the U.S. military’s goal for the war?
According to reports, a lot of military commanders
Sure, but were they speaking officially on behalf of the U.S. military, or were they just expressing their own (distressingly commonly held) view?
Since when has the military ever officially and explicitly stated their actual intentions
According to the person I was responding to, this is exactly what they are doing:

I think it is much more likely that Trump enjoys the power trip that comes from bullying the weak than that he is specifically out to start a holy war, and at the end of the day the goal of the U.S. military is to do whatever he says, no matter what they personally think about it.
When are military personel not talking officially? …have you seen Sen. Kelly prosecution by trump-hegseth-dptOfWar, they claim retired military personel do not have free speech, aka they are always bound to speak officially.
So, I ask again, when are military personel not talking officially?
When are military personel not talking officially?

Actually, what they are trying to charge him for is sedition for encouraging troops to disobey orders, which is even worse (nonsense) than charging him merely for speaking unofficially.
