I feel for these troops. And for anyone saying they can disobey these orders because they are unlawful, doesn't work like that.
Can The Military Refuse Trump's Orders?
People who think you can 'just disobey' have been watching too many movies.
They can, but they would lose everything. I wish more would but it's not that easy, yeah.
There are a lot of things you can do but would lose everything.
To me those are things people can't do. I don't expect anyone to make that choice, because I don't think it's a real choice.
I just feel like people get trapped in these thoughts cycles where they think "well I CANT do that, so what are the other options?" And so it never even gets due consideration. What is too much? What morals do you hold that you will not bend?
