Mattis is a symbol of what many progressives for a very long time rallied against. US hegemony, endless wars, military industrial complex, blank checks to the military, etc. Just feels weird for people who are so ideologically opposed to what he stands for all of the sudden praising him.

It would be like a staunch abortion critic who has been a public figure and has cemented views being publicly lauded and highlighted for what he said about the environment by feminists who also care about the environment. Just strange.



Some of us have been consistently anti-war even pre-Trump. Did you so quickly forget how we argued about Syria?


If Obama came out today and said "Trump is actually doing a decent job guys" you wouldn't cheer? puh-leeze. we'd talk about it in pard for weeks, it would be referenced in PARD on a daily basis for years.

Actually Obama is running around saying: "Keep protesting". He's dressing it up a bit, but I noticed he keeps referring to America as "you" rather than we.

I would love for something like this to happen simply to analyze it as a social experiment. Like people watch trump opponents and the MSM coverage.

It's not strange. When you're right, you're right. Pat Robertson is also being praised for calling out Trump. Just because you like what was said by an individual doesn't mean you have to support them 100%.

If they are strong real men beholden to their oath, one would plead guilty. There is really no choice. Weaker men would fight it, not own it.
