People used to always bring this up on oldvoat but overlooked the aftermath.

The "Battle of Athens" was followed by movements of veterans in other Tennessee counties promoting a statewide coalition against corrupt political machines in the upcoming November elections. Governor McCord countered an attempt to form a "Non-Partisan GI Political League" by directing the Young Democrats Clubs of Tennessee to recruit ex-GIs. There were strenuous efforts by the "Crump Organization," based in Shelby County, to counter the nascent GI organization.[27] A convention was held in Alamo, Tennessee, with the intention to establish a new national party. The convention was dissuaded by General Evans Carlson, USMC, who argued that the GIs should work through the existing political parties.[28]

The new GI government of Athens quickly encountered challenges including the re-emergence of old party loyalties.[29] On January 4, 1947, four of the five leaders of the GI Non-Partisan League declared in an open letter: "We abolished one machine only to replace it with another and more powerful one in the making."[30] The GI government in Athens eventually collapsed. Tennessee's GI political movement quickly faded and politics in the state returned to normal.[11][31] The Non-Partisan GI Political League replied to enquiries by veterans elsewhere in the United States with the advice that shooting it out was not the most desirable solution to political problems.

Not to mention the fact that American ww2 vets are responsible for Whites losing ww2.

Luckily something like that cant happen anymore these days.

Just the "diversity" and thus non unity in the armed forces would prevent that.

Can you imagine whites niggers spics and all that one more time in female form standing united and taking risks?

The moment no cops are around niggers would go loot, women would twerk on chinktok and spics would be a wild card.
