    Our military actually operates on a bottom-up model, so firing top generals doesn’t really do much.

      That’s concerning, because I’ve found they are less likely to fight against this; many of them are Maga white supremacists who take out their anger that should be against the very government that left them broken, but they lash out against immigrants, lgbtq, woand women. I’ve dealt with the rank-and-file military over the years, that’s how I know. I have little to no respect for the institution now, much less its members. I wanted to join the service but bullshit like this kept me back, and this was pre-Trump.
