US needs to break up into independent states as people will have choices to
go to where they want it.

The blacks and whites and minorities can choose where they want to live
comfortably and congregate normally without having to live against each
other.

The US does have a lot of flag ranked military officers, the following is 15 years old.

"How many retired admirals and generals are there?
It’s hard to get good numbers, but the Explainer estimates that about 4,700 general officers are enjoying their retirement in the United States right now."
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2006/04/how-many-retired-generals-are-there.html

Percentage wise, about 2.5 retired flag officers had signed the letter.
The number is not large. But the language is indeed extremist.

Unfortunately, it will probably become necessary for
the survival of the nation and people. The more they
try to purge non-Marxists from the military the more
they harden hearts, hasten the moment. When a
govt treats the military as the enemy - guess who's
going to lose ?

Of course a coup is NOT a great thing. There will
be damages. It may also not be possible to un-do
such a thing - martial law for generations, like in
so many shitty countries. They may get rid of
the Marxists, but there is a risk they could become
just as bad. Power intoxicates, always demands
even more .......

We HOPE American military leaders still have a
little true patriotism, integrity, and would resist
falling into that pit. America is supposed to be
what most of the world is not - a Land Of The
Free.

So sad that the "Great Experiment" has come to
this in barely 200 years ....

Most people in uniform support Biden.

----------

Just because they are flag officers, it doesn't mean they know a lot about anything beyond fighting. I think their motive is to safeguard the lunch of the military-industrial complex. Even in Europe, people do not have the kind of hysteria that Americans have towards socialism and Marxism. To most of the world, the greatest threat to world peace is the US.
