I was highlighting the fallacy in your argument, but that was clearly a waste of time.
You obviously don’t know the history of veterans in the U.S. or what brought this type of culture to the U.S.
You probably see the military as an extension of a government you hate (understandable) and think of its members as fully endorsing said government (not correct at all).
That you get butthurt over a discount says a lot about you though.
If it’s due to history of mistreatment and lack of care, then by that logic we should give all minorities a discount as well.
But here’s the thing. Today’s soldier ain’t even CLOSE to dealing with what Vietnam vets or older vets dealt with.
Today’s wannabe Punisher is just a likely wife beater loser who had no direction in life, served a few years, became even more bro, and then went to a policing agency afterwards where he could flex his control fetish over the general populace. That motherfucker that needlessly makes every interaction more intense than necessary needs a blanket of worship for simply having signed up to serve in a military that basically takes anyone? How special.
Our garbage collectors do more difficult and thankless work today than most military. Tending to the Officers golf courses doesn’t warrant shit.
I’m not the same person of the original comment. For you to personally insult me while not bothering to read the name of the user says a lot about you too though.
I hope you have a great day.
Edit: Also, nowhere in my comment did I mention that I hated the US government or the military because it’s completely besides the point, I said that I didn’t understand why a subset of people that contribute as much as others are supposed to get get special privileges. I’m not even from the US, it’s not a thing where I’m from. You sure assumed a lot about me.

You think that’s an insult?
I’m commenting on a behavior, not a person.
Doesn’t matter if are not OP, your sentiment is clearly the same and my comment still stands.
Your comment, however, screams that you are faux offended, so you can feel like you are on the high road.
Edit: No place I know l let’s you have a vet AND a senior discount. It’s one or the other
I see student discounts a lot. What has a student done that an electrician hasn’t, so that the student deserves a discount but not the electrician?
The right answer: Who gives a shit?
It’s a STUPID FUCKING argument that just highlights a really fucking petty person.
Now if a person acts entitled to a discount, then that is an entirely different story.
