@iminlovewitheve Bad men did a bad thing and were quickly and deservedly met with violence. Nobody walked away from this thinking, "man, I want to be like those pirates"

@ComicDaveSmith It's because WWII is the foundation of America's second "creation myth". The first was the American Revolution (American Republic) and WW2 was our transition to Empire. The WW2 narrative is what "justifies" everything that we've done for the past 80 years.

Frisch & Simonsen (2015). https://t.co/pc2BLwL7Wq
Jones et al. (2024). https://t.co/YJnSwvaFd8
Parker et al. (2023). https://t.co/J5CsfIJJEc
@diol2n My spider sense tells me that this was just two service members fighting - one drunk in civvies and the others in uniform. Haircut, sleeve tattoo, dumb boots all suggest lower enlisted shenanigans.
