The officers I've known have been overwhelmingly liberal/left/whatever. The handful of chuds were all evangelical or adjacent, and mostly kept it to themselves because they knew they were outnumbered.

Mustang posted:Junior officers are mostly young and idealistic and are representative of the college/no college split you see in politics today. While junior officer chuds exist if they post about it on social media they will probably get dogpiled by their peers. On the officer side I heard plenty of jokes at Trump's expense, never anything positive about him. Huh, that’s actually oddly reassuring. I mean Miley, despite loving up in the park walk, probably helped protect American democracy in 2019-2020. It’s comforting to think that Junior and Non Junior Officers embody that, far more then the CHUD life, and actively mock it. Thanks.

Platystemon posted:SCOTUS stripped you of your Miranda rights earlier this month. Well I guess it isn’t that bad then. But seriously you know some celebs, who should know better, are getting ready to share their “political art” with us. That’s not to dumb on all political related art, just that a lot of it sucks and makes you want to not care.

Marshal Prolapse posted:I thought Officers are generally CHUD/Brainworms? Oh tons, but it’s the only institution that is maybe mostly liberalish or centrist overall I can see that could possibly be wielded outside the control of the capital interests backing the two major parties. Extremely unlikely, but like, I can see it actually being possible. Balkanized USA would definitely but better for the world as a whole and especially Latin America but that’s the only mechanism I can see where you have a strong federal USA that isn’t just a tinpot fascist regime in thirty years from now.

I saw results from a survey somewhere that mapped political leanings for service people broken down by service and officer/enlisted. IIRC the chudliest group were Marine enlisted, and the least were Navy officer. I can't find it now, so maybe I hallucinated it.

Thanks! I seem to recall Marines also loved Ron Paul in certain polls I’ve seen. All of this providing excellent material to goof my dad. Granted I’d always think Air Force would out CHUD, but there seems to be an effort by leadership to clean up the Christ Force rep, and understanding that it’s not just cracker Jesus freaks in the AF.

In my military experience this means that they have identified you as someone that they cannot share those opinions with, and this is another way you are absolutely ignoring the systemic issues in your service.

I still remember how big of weenies the 2009 Senate Democratic Caucus was. So dedicated to ~decorum~ and ~tradition~ of the filibuster that they built the ACA clusterfuck to try and save their seats. Then when the majority went to 59 from 60, more weeniedom. Naturally, the ACA was the big thing they did that stuck, and they completely blew opportunities to codify Roe, finally fix immigration, etc. I don't think they had 60 pro-choice Democratic Senators at the time, but they probably had 50+ and decorumed the opportunity away.

The handful of chuds were all evangelical or adjacent, and mostly kept it to themselves because they knew they were outnumbered. The "I don't like how he talks, buuuuuut" contingent among officers re: right-wing assholes is pretty drat strong. Regardless, it's not hardcore one way or ther other. More like a 50/50 split +/- 5 points depending on who you ask. The USMC is consistently more conservative than the other branches. And as you get older and more senior, you find a lot more generic republicans, but so go males in general, and the older you look in the armed forces, the more male it becomes compared to new recruits and young officers. E: I have seen a lot of the generic republican mid-grade to senior Os be quick to jump down the throat of firebrand younger officers who seem eager to try to own the libs or something. One example was a young captain going out of his way to talk about the 2A reference civilians on the battlefield and whether it could be expected in a wartime scenario in Generic Europe Scenario, and it was basically a 3-way stomping as even gun-owning conservative senior leaders were just like "why the gently caress would you bring that up thatt way or shoehorn in the Second Amendment and poo poo-talking Europeans right now?" mlmp08 fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Jun 24, 2022 |

For sure, personally I'm skeptical of any field grade when I first meet them. It's no surprise that the most conservative are also the most likely to stay around and spend 20+ years in a conservative organization. I sometimes go out for beers with my last boss and its always with other MAJs and LTCs. Whenever politics comes up at least half of them are conservatives, something I never ran into when politics comes up when going out with a bunch of lieutenants and captains.

Comments really illustrate the difference between left and liberals, since the libs just cannot conceive of the concept of broad solidarity or working class emiseration without breaking their fundamental assumptions are bunch of them are talking about how owned this chud is because he’s too poor to register his car and how awesome the cops are even though there’s nothing about him to suggest he’s a chud other than he’s not visibly a minority. Like poo poo how little money would it cost relatively for a public service that was like police but actually existed to help the community to just be like “well okay that cars hosed but we’ll get it to a mechanic for free and help you get it registered and stuff so you can work and live and be happy and productive.” Instead we’ll be paying thousands a week to keep him miserable in a cage for being poor probably.

Obviously this happens to black people more but the point is that this is the life of the underclass in general. For liberals, there HAS to be an explanation why some underclass as a whole deserves it and is not actually oppressed by the institutions they support since they can’t question the system itself. When they can’t fall back on just claiming it was specifically racist bad actors oppressing the poor they default to making poo poo up why this guy is actually secretly a Nazi bothering our hero cops.
