We understand we are simple pawns in the game. It's actually not allowed for ANY uniformed soldiers or sailors or marines or airmen to go to politican rally events. This is to prevent the perception of a bias in service. When Trump was elected some of the officers grumbled about the election but they knew down to their core that he was the new commander in chief. Thus public disclosure of thier disaproval would get them into hardcore trouble.
I hate the worship of the US military

I think your annoyance is misdirected.
The men and women in our armed force deserve our respect.
But they unfortunately are used in politics as a rally point to show how patriotic one is vs the other guy.
Which is a major turn off for people, but has nothing to do with actual “boots on the ground” men and women.

It just feels like people are to quick to be reactive to things with out putting more thought towards what it is first.
Especially with political identity/ideology bleeding into all aspects of life.
Anyone who feels the need to be in you face about their beliefs will normally turn anyone neutral or on the other side off.

Perfect example is with excessive bumper/window sticker on cars.
It doesn’t matter if all of them i agree with, it always have an “l’m overcompensating” vibe to it
