February 7Feb 7 comment_28885602 Thousands of active-duty military personnel may have been "pressured" into seeing the Melaniadocumentary at cinemas around the country, a watchdog has warned.The $75 million Amazon film opened last week to $7 million at the box office—despite universally terrible reviews.According to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, those numbers have been artificially inflated by pressure from MAGA-aligned officers leaning on their troops to buy tickets."People are scared," Mikey Weinstein, president and founder of the MRFF said he has letters from members of the U.S. military at eight facilities worldwide, complaining that they were encouraged or pressured to see the film by their superiors.He told Business Insider. "They were pressured to see the movie. Your military superior, that's not your shift manager at Taco Bell or Starbucks. They have complete and total control over you."The MRFF, a non-profit founded in 2005 to promote the separation of church and state within the military, has roughly 100,000 members."Nobody that I know wanted to go except for those that did not want to get jacked up by our unit commander for not attending," one of those members told Weinstein in a letter seen by journalist Jonathan Larsen.Full: https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/military-pressured-to-see-melania-whistleblowers-warn/ Link to comment https://atrl.net/forums/topic/525586-military-pressured-to-see-melania-against-their-will/ Share on other sites Share on Bluesky Share on X Share on Facebook {lang="reddit_text" Share on Pinterest More sharing options...
