Radical-left opinion outlet Vice ran a hit piece on the United States Marines as over a dozen were killed in Afghanistan, stating that “so many” are “Neo-Nazis.” The piece had the headline, “Why Are So Many Marines Neo-Nazis?”
The disgusting comments came on the same day that over a dozen United States troops were killed by suicide bombings from ISIS-K members near the Kabul airport in Afghanistan.

“While many vets are being outed as far-right extremists, one branch keeps popping up when it comes to neo-Nazis: the United States Marine Corps,” Vice claimed.
“The Corps reported to NPR in April that it had, in the past three years alone, found 16 cases of extremism within its ranks,” Vice said. According to the NPR report, the 16 “ties” to “extremism” were “mostly” linked to “postings on social media.”
“Though these numbers account for only a tiny fraction of those Marines who enlist and serve,” Vice admitted, adding, “the problem is worth noting, especially given the USMC’s past.”
The piece went on to say “at least seven former Marines have openly avowed or been identified with neo-Nazism or the extreme right, with some allegedly involved in planned terrorist acts.”
Conservative commentator Meghan McCain blasted the outlet, telling them to “Go f*** yourselves.”
McCain, who voted for President Joe Biden, appears to regret her decision after the Taliban completely took over Afghanistan after Biden’s disastrous withdraw.
Did you see this? Gold is in trouble, this is NUT…
“I have been physically ill, more depressed than I have been since the beginning stages of the pandemic and filled nothing short of pure rage and anger since the calamity of a ‘pull out’ which will be seen as one of the greatest foreign policy catastrophes of my lifetime,” McCain wrote on Instagram. “I am furious our President was so incompetent not to see what every expert on the planet could have seen coming. I am furious for my friends and family who have been fighting in these wars since I was 16 (many who have lost limbs, had their life terrorized by PTSD from their experiences in war and deployments, or worse).”
“I am furious seeing our allies and innocent Afghan citizens who trusted us are being left to be slaughtered or so desperate to escape the pure evil the Taliban will bring in that they are falling out of f***king planes,” she added. “This is not who America is; this is not the values this country was founded in. Our veterans deserve better; the innocent Afghan people and our allies and translators who have stood by us for the past 20 years deserve better. The shame, dishonor and embarrassment the Biden administration has brought to our country will take generations to undo. Not to mention our standing in the world and the cruel reality that the likelihood of another significant domestic terror attack has now risen to the highest levels since 9/11 and will usher in ISIS 3.0. — I could say so much more (and have been raging on Twitter), but please reach out to your veteran friends and their families — everyone I know is struggling. May God have mercy for what we have done to these people abandoning them.”
“Biden is unfit to lead and I am nothing short of disgusted he and his staff can’t seem to be bothered to leave their vacation during an international crisis of our own creation,” she concluded. “There should be an emergency congressional hearing before more innocent lives are lost. My heart is broken, this tragedy will absolutely haunt our country. Also — every single Afghan refugee fleeing must be granted a safe haven in America!”

Not all can be a marine that’s why there slogan is ” the few the proud the marines”
To “VICE”,
You disparage the entire Marine Corps for the opinions of seven “former” Marines and state that sixteen posted “extremist” views on social media. What is your definition of “extremist”? Any viewpoint to the right of the far left media is called “extremist”. What used to be patriotism is now called “extremist”. It seems that anyone who loves this nation and is willing to stand up for the Constitution and the basic rights is labeled an “extremist”. I served 30 years in the US Navy, rising through the ranks from E-1 to E-9, W-3 to W-4, and retired as a LT (O3E). I still hold those beliefs for which I swore to uphold and defend as being an eternal promise. Yet, I suppose that this would result in being labeled an “extremist” by the “mainstream” media. I fly my American flag 24/7 (illuminated) on my front porch. I have yet been challenged for this but am surprised that the left leaning neighborhood where I live hasn’t petitioned for me to remove it. As they say, over my dying body and from my bloody hands.
