It is absolutely insane to see how easy Americans are susceptible to fascism and look no further than TikTok
People are posting themselves with videos of Hitler’s speeches in English and saying “yeah that’s right”

This in no way changes the fact that Ronny Jackson continued to commit Stolen Valor from 2022 to 2025
That entire time he had Rear Admiral instead of Captain on his Twitter bio and elsewhere is stolen valor. It’s the *exact* definition
