"Veteran Flies US Flag Upside Down After Losing VA Job. ONe of thousands of veterans gets wacked by DOGE, considers suice and flies flag upside down. An Iraq war veteran who lost her job during Trump cuts to the federal workforce has begun flying the American flag upside down, a sign of distress, outside her home."

So what? She’s an idiot. She should have flown the flag upside down when she realized there were no WMDs in Irak and that she was sent on a wild goose chase to die and enrich the MIC. The Americans were the bad guys who illegally invaded a sovereign nation, destroyed it, tortured and murdered one million innocent men, women, and children …. committing war crimes and crimes against humanity. Why didn’t she fly the flag upside down then?

"Retired Sergeant First Class Joy Marver, who lives in Burnsville, Minnesota, said she took the step "not lightly" after suicidal thoughts following her release from the Veterans Benefits Association, which forms part of the Department of Veterans Affairs, in February. Suffered a traumatic brain injury during a rocket attack in Iraq."

I am a Vietnam war veteran. Do you think we didn’t suffer traumatic brain injuries over there? Do you want to guess how many Vietnam War Veterans took their own lives? We were the bad guys too. We formed groups of Vietnam Veterans against the war. We marched to Washington, we flew the flag upside down, and most of all we brought the war to an end. What did this woman do? Nothing.

"Is this what MAGA voted for?"

What does Trump and MAGA have to do with it? Trump and MAGA are Making America Great. They are trying to stop the people who illegally started and perpetuated the wars in Vietnam and Iraq and Serbia and Grenada and all over Latin America. What is this woman doing about it? She contributed to the death of a million innocent men, women, and children in Iraq but all she does is bitch about losing her job. Well, boo-hoo. Fall on your knees and pray for all the people you helped to murder instead.

Empathy biases us in favour of individuals, so it creates some of the worst decisions, like keeping wasteful government workers on at the cost to the taxpayer. So you knock your pan in with empathy, I'll stick to rational compassion, and all government workers are overpaid, underworked spongers.

Wow, it’s impressive how they typed an entire paragraph without ever remotely describing what the job actually does

I’m going to guess it was a “non-essential” role.

I worked for state government as a nurse at a veterans nursing home. There’s a ton of office workers performing utterly pointless jobs

It really shouldn't matter. People are being fired illegally.

BS. You idiots have been brainwashed and you are going to learn a very difficult lesson about how wrong you are about government workers. The private sector is far less efficient and more wasteful. In the private sector, you can write off waste as a cost of business and get that money back in taxes, In the private sector you don't need credentials. Anybody can start a private business. Children have started businesses. But children don't work for public health.

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Empathy surpasses rational compassion because it fosters genuine connection and mutual understanding. While rational compassion operates from a sense of duty or logic, empathy allows individuals to truly feel and share in another's emotional experience. This emotional resonance creates a bond that transcends mere obligation, encouraging deeper care and authenticity in interactions. Empathy drives people to act not just out of a calculated understanding of suffering but from an intuitive desire to alleviate it, strengthening relationships and promoting kindness. It cultivates a world where actions stem from heartfelt concern rather than detached analysis, leading to a more harmonious and inclusive society.

Retired Sergeant First Class Joy Marver, who suffered a traumatic brain injury during a rocket attack in Iraq, was laid off last month.

Yawn, I could say the same the same thing about veterans in this area. I saw no shortage of flags flying upside-down by veterans during the entire four years of the Biden admin. What is really telling is to look at the quality of house that the flag is flying from.

I know the recruiting station in Concerned American's district has an upside-down flag for him.

Nope, but there were a lot of upside down flags flying in this area between 2021-2025. They are flying beautifully, right-side-up in the sunshine since Jan. 20, 2025. Try again donkey.
