Something about being sent overseas to fight wars under the guise of protecting American freedoms, and here they are actually protecting American freedoms and being vilified for it by those who gleefully send them to overseas wars for the sake of corporate interests
Funny story: while most of the protestors are verified non violent protestors, there is a group of antifa anarchists that are willing to protect their nonviolent bretheren by putting their bodies in the line of fire to block "less than lethal" and chemical weapons from being used on our brothers and sisters that want to protest police violence without getting gassed or assaulted. Here's to our antifascist front liners who allow us to protest police brutality without taking serious bodily harm!
Edit: this got a lot more attention than I thought it would. If this resonates with you check out r/antifascistsofreddit. You don't have to be on the front lines to be anti fascist, just willing to oppose fascism in whichever way you choose.

They like vets, but only when they do not ask for better pensions, living conditions, aids, less useless wars and more left leaning policies
