Remembrance Day is a day where we remember the glorious charge at Vimy, when we won our freedom, rather than a day where we remember that war is an unforgivable sin. The ceasefire in Gaza movement could not be more timely but none of these flag huggers will call for peace when they have their chance.

DaysBefore posted:Yeah lol the first one I remember was kindergarten before 9/11 and it was some sad WW1 vet who'd been sent to the trenches and told us about the horror and all his friends dying and it was like, drat, we shouldn't do that anymore. Then come high school and it was some dude who did a tour in Afghanistan talking about how badass our snipers were. Okay, I don't give a poo poo about this day anymore lol. All the vets of the only war we fought that mattered will be dead soon anyway Lmao that anyone would unironically use Armistice Day as a recruiting tool, but well here we are

So, I was just in a meeting with VAC where they said GWOT veterans have totally tuned out. Aren't engaging with services, aren't going to the memorials, haven't joined the Legion. It's all top-down stuff from the government, a lot of what you saw was purely the Harper government. Younger veterans also don't feel like they "earned" the poppy because it's no engrained in Canadian national consciousness, especially when we were kids in the 90's, so they've tried to develop a new symbol which they rolled out this year.

Cool how terrible everything is Hey remember when Occupy Halifax agreed to move out of Grand Parade for Remembrance Day and while they were moving to Victoria Park in a driving rainstorm the police took the opportunity to simply arrest them instead?

I'm going to preempt CSPAM jumping all over the bootlicker thing to say that the symbol is absolutely incomprehensible to me and I am dying to figure out who the gently caress came up with this. The war the produced record numbers of single and double amputees being represented by a boot is tone-deaf too.

a while back I participated in a research panel that was testing ads for injured veterans services and one of the spots opened with a guy lacing up a pair of boots, then cut to the same guy tying a pair of business shoes, I guess to show the transition from military to civilian life. almost everyone on the panel called that out lol

Oh man, war and the army rock so much. Wish we had way more of both! gently caress I love this country. I hate this time of year so loving much. People give me poo poo for not wearing the poppy, then they give me poo poo if I explain I don't do public remembrance day poo poo because it is all a celebration of war and militarism. No one ever likes when I tell them "I loving served and you didn't, I get to do whatever the gently caress I want on the 11th."
