Is there a way to "support soldiers" without supporting the military? Because I could get behind that.
The "military" doesn't make decisions. We vote for politicians who tell the "military" what to do. The military carries out tasks that the government tells them to do. The military is simply the entire group of soldiers at once. So why are you against the military, but support soldiers?
