On June 1st, 2020, following the events in Lafayette Square, Washington, D.C., a group of veterans became Continue To Serve. Our oath is to the Constitution. Not to one ideal. Not to one religion. Not to one person in office.

Stop this bullshit DEI moral panic!

After the outpouring of support for our last video we recorded a followup to talk about just how important diversity is in our military. We recorded this before last night's tragic crash. The soldiers on the ground don’t care about this DEI moral panic. When the shit hits the fan, you only care that your battle buddy has your back.

It is, but just as an example of “one chapter” of it. Anyone opposing them can easily be said to be Antifa as well.

Check out our backstory here: https://continuetoserve.vet/
I can assure you, we as an organization, have been trying fully understand the context and implications of this since this came up under the first T' administration. Its a threat but it shouldn't stop you from considering your next steps and actions, which is exactly what they intend for it to do. The biggest mistake we, the royal we, as a resistance can make is to be caught flatfooted.

If you are looking for inspiration, we @[email protected] just finished a 1.5 hour session with lawyers from NLG, historians, and activists to help service members understand their rights and responsibilities when it comes to illegal orders potentially being issued by this administration.
We just uploaded it to youtube and its available here:

This isn’t just a one-off call to action—it’s the beginning of something bigger. Now is the time to get informed, get involved, and take a stand. If you’ve served, your country needs you to step up and make a difference.

Apologies to the community for this taking longer to organize than we had hoped. However, we think we put together what we hope will be an engaging and useful discussion for current and former service members as well as their friends and families. If you know anyone who would benefit from watching this panel, please share the invite link far and wide.

Lemmy, we need your help! Help us ask the right questions for our National Lawyers Guild panel tomorrow!!
Hey Lemmy,
We need your help. We've been asked to host a panel with the National Lawyers Guild which will be focused on helping US service members understand some basic questions around what is an illegal order, and what they can do if they believe they've been issued an illegal order.
We've got some questions so far, but we want more to come from the community. If you are a veteran, or current service members, or really any one concerned, what questions would you ask a panel of lawyers about the upcoming administration?

This is an interview we did with Don Lemon on the Don Lemon show. We organized a clean up of the DC streets after the January 6th insurrection, primarily so we could take down all the fascist and neo-nazi propaganda they had put up.
This is one of the most toxic, brain-dead, "I intend to learn NOTHING from the mistakes Democrats made" takes possible.
If you think like this, you are mentally broken, and there is probably no hope for you.
I would say it laid the ground work for OccupyWallstreet, which laid the ground work for modern progressive movement.
Partially because "peaceful" and the definition of what would or would not be accepted as valid protest became co-opted by the management/ ivy league class.
Compare the Seattle WTO protests to the 2003-2005 Iraq protests.
