      They probably still assume you’re a Right-winger though?

      I’ve seen chuds who have the thin red, blue, green flag combo. I just assume anyone with any of those or the black and white US flag is a fascist. Am I wrong here? Then again I just assume anyone with any US flag is a fascist.

      When you’re go to move during a riot is to get your fire gear on, set yourself on fire and calmly walk towards cops, I know which side I’m rooting for without hesitation.

      I mean…it’s a public serving pretty decent gig where you’re on for two weeks but have the next two weeks entirely to do whatever, you need to be buff and you’re automatically popular. It’s probably one of the best options for an institution to flood with leftists. It’s already got a red colour theme going.

    firefighters are reactionary in the same way that nurses tend to be - they hate taxes and “bureaucracy” and in some cases “wokeness” but will be sympathetic to any person they come across in a state of vulnerability, instead of viewing them with suspicion and wanting to subjugate them like cops do

        I think it’s because both firefighting and (some specializations of) nursing pay pretty well so they’re materially well off, and they both also attract people from blue collar backgrounds which tend to be culturally conservative (not denigrating them for this, but it is what it is)

          Always be thinking about this (as a very academic-background far left nerd going into trades)

      If your politics don’t get in the way of my medical care or my fire being put out, during the time I’m having a medical problem or unwelcome fire I really don’t care what their politics are. If my home is ablaze and a fascist goes in to put it out good, he’s fixing my fire problem for free and risking harm. It’s a double win here.

    I have to also point out that whenever pigs and firefighters fight each other, the firefighters usually beat the fuck out of the cops.

        And more of a tendency to run towards danger, rather than away from whatever they percieve as danger. No firefighter is gonna start doing barrel-rolls because of an acorn, that’s for sure.

      I heard about this cops v firefighters hockey game once where there was a bit of a brawl, as hockey is to do, and the firefighter absolutely beat the shit out of the cop. He’d probably been waiting to do that forever until the ice gave him a pass.

    Firefighters in the US are carbrained macho goobers who insist in unnecessarily oversized apparatuses and consistently fight street safety projects. Don’t tell me they care about lives, they can munch my shit.

        i feel like it’s usually just a firefighter, someone with connections to one, or someone who’s witnessed the good work they do. i doubt most people without one of those would bother with it. unlike the thin blue line, they’re not trying to make a political statement, and almost everyone respects firefighters. i don’t see it any different from an EMT or conservationist thin line flags
