US servicemembers: You have the right and duty to disobey illegal orders. But what exactly does that mean? How does that work?

    None of these people look like the type of folks that law enforcement or military folks are going to want to agree with. Not a decent haircut in the lot.

    Should that matter? No. But it does.

    Edit: Uh oh, apparently I might have hurt someone’s feefees by saying “masturbation” below… Fucking mods. Please daddy mod make my spacer safer so that I can pretend my bubble is reality (don’t mind the fact that people are literally dying, feels over reals).

        Who needs to have their minds changed about this? DHS, local PD, reserve, national guard, etc. And maybe their families/friends if those folks aren’t afraid of them.

        So, I think the original comment is right: the most impact would be had if the panel looks like the folks we see using horses to trample protesters (or in military leadership etc). Or like tank-on-Tesla guy.

        Tank on Tesla

        That said, the conversation’s gotta start somewhere, and I appreciate these folks doing it and putting their names/faces out there in this climate.
