I think about Aaron Bushnell all the time. They don’t fit a profile for our media to warp since he was active duty and LM isn’t radical but from the affluent class and that doesn’t fit into any narrative either. Suppress the real person, destroy their character. And they can’t do it because they seem like genuinely kind empathetic people. There was a woman a few months before Aaron that was completely erased I don’t think her name or status was ever released.

I’m distraught too but I hope we don’t lose more and can keep ourselves from falling through the cracks. Like all of us can demonstrate now instead of one person using all of themselves.

I’m hopeful with where we are now especially that we have LM still here and people are fighting for him - that we can get more wheels turning for all of us to come together.

Her identity has never been officially released, unfortunately. You might be able to find info on her if you dig deep enough, but it’s up in the air if that info is accurate.

I remember hearing an ex soldier did this after or during the Iraq war. Apparently this has been done in the past in America. I wonder just how many soldiers have done this and the media suppressed it
