The above Facebook image captured this statement of support of the American military, made by a young woman who apparently lost her job over the incident.

As the comments on said Facebook image demonstrate, the above video roughly describes the response that she received.
I think that at this point, it's time for me to once again quote, from one of my favourite analyses of America's current political situation; Lawrence Britt's 14 Defining Characteristics of Fascism.
4. The supremacy of the military/avid militarism. Ruling elites always identified closely with the military and the industrial infrastructure that supported it. A disproportionate share of national resources was allocated to the military, even when domestic needs were acute. The military was seen as an expression of nationalism, and was used whenever possible to assert national goals, intimidate other nations, and increase the power and prestige of the ruling elite.
The real tragedy is, that in WW2, the American military perhaps really was defending freedom, but at this point, the roles have actually reversed. America is now playing the role of Nazi Germany; invading and tyrannising other countries abroad, and brutalising its' own population at home.
An idea that has always scared me where that is concerned, is that it was the American military, under General Eisenhower, who liberated the concentration camps in Nazi Germany. When the FEMA camps in America become active, who will serve as the cavalry then?

I think that just about sums it up exactly.

No, it was not the American military who liberated the concentration camps in Nazi Germany, some were liberated by US forces, some by Soviet forces and at least one by British forces.
this whole thing doesn't smell right. sounds like a psyop to
make people mad at the military members.

You're right, it sounds fake from both sides, and that's usually a sign of both sides being just one.
