With all the current discussion of flag/anthem protests and the right-wing’s rhetoric around “insulting those who served/died for the flag”…
...I’ve noticed more and more Kossacks mentioning their service, or the service of a family member. Reading the comments in the various diaries leads me to suspect that military veterans and/or family members may be over-represented here at DailyKos in comparison to the general population.
We’ve never really asked that question, so I’m going ask you to do three things:
a) Answer the poll question honestly (please don’t spoof it one way or the other),
b) Throw a recommend on the diary to keep it visible for a while (I’d like a decent sample size), and
c) If you wish, describe your connection to military service in the comments. (If you’re currently serving, you might not want to post comments to that effect — just answer the poll, please...)
Thanks!
