If a real working class party includes these people I’d rather watch the world burn in hellfire (hexbear.net)

I can literally cite two (recently) living examples of this: Mike Prysner and Aaron Bushnell

I would say these are examples of soldiers we are giving an opportunity to by appreciating their work and sacrifice. We are not dismissing their contributions by rote just because of their former affiliations.

And DEFINITELY NOT someone like Graham Platner who hasn't done a smidgen of what the former soldiers I just mentioned have done.

Again, nothing I've written has been in the defense of Graham Planter. I'm just rebutting the claim that all former US soldiers should be held in absolute disdain.
