Shame is a foreign experience to nutballs who turn their strong and genuine conviction that god is on their side into cold hard cash. Works the same way here. The religious have been getting fleeced for years to pay in to causes that were never even intended to pay out. Every single time we get hit with a natural distatser every prosperity gospel preacher and theocrat with a microphone or a camera starts some "fundraising drive" for the downtrodden christians of wherever. There are still grifts running from storms years ago. Here we have the red cross, but the red cross is as much of a shitshow as the red crescent and enjoys a similar mismatch between reality and perception - and they're "one of the good ones". It just gets worse from there. Not, I think, that I have to tell you that. You're likely familiar with the phenomena.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
