...and the hat that he probably picked up in a gas station and has no experience being one, just figured he could wear the hat and flag and POOF he's now magically a paramedic in a "war"

ding ding. Teens and twenty somethings are easy to brainwash and 100% full of themselves. China's cultural revolution, which installed communism and killed millions, was led by university students. Same deal with the bolsheviks.

Yeah, a lot of chaotic revolutions are physically driven by the youth...upper-middle class college age usually. They've got the resources and stupidity to be the puppets of whoever is pulling the strings. See the French Revolution for an example. And China's "Cultural Revolution".

The American Revolution was different in that it was organized by established businessmen and landowners.
