As we told you earlier today, David Hogg got a lesson in fairly recent history after slamming “US military imperialism”:

Alexa, what does US military imperialism look like? https://t.co/p0awbnnDgO

Purple Heart recipient, American Warrior Initiative co-founder and author Sean Parnell served up a quick schooling for Hogg:
Alexa, what does a beta male look like?
Oh, & one more lesson you won’t likely learn at Harvard. We fight to liberate & protect. Not occupy & take.
We fight in defense of freedom worldwide. Wise up kiddo. https://t.co/qHSUqoWpdw— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) April 23, 2019
When Hogg says things like this he impugns the legacy of my men who fought & bled on foreign soil for the freedom of others & asked nothing in return for it.

When people thoughtless criticize policy w/ nonsensical talking points, how do you thing that makes men & women serving on the front lines feel? It cheapens the altruism behind their service.
What Hogg said isn’t fair to those who lost loved ones in support of global freedom.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) April 23, 2019
MSNBC analyst and Time Mag contributor Elise Jordan took up a defensive position around one of the Left’s favorite gun control activists:
Can you imagine how low your self-esteem has to be to go around hate-tweeting a rising college freshman? https://t.co/6b6yuRJsoZ

Parnell wasn’t buying that:

Hell, I had 20 men that were his age getting shot at & wounded everyday.
He’s entered the political arena time & again spewing nonsensical garbage. In this case, garbage that impugns the legacy of our troops.I think Hogg can stand to take some well deserved criticism. https://t.co/jPXH1SF8wi

Liberals and the mainstream media (which is often redundant) need to decide what they want Hogg to be: A national figure and anti-gun activist, or a college freshman who should be left alone.
The media made his voice critical in changing laws that effect us all.
At that point, he is legitimately open to criticism. That's how it works. https://t.co/Hz2KJlgnkt

If you didn't want him to be a national political activist that is subject to public criticism, then maybe you shouldn't have elevated him to that status to begin with. https://t.co/hp4TYAlexQ

Bingo!
David Hogg is a political activist. If he can't handle disagreement, he should try something else.

“Wise up kiddo,” is hate speech now? I can’t keep up.

Hogg is an adult who chose to become an activist on the public stage and use his platform to say vitriolic and stupid things. Criticism directed towards him is perfectly acceptable and richly deserved. https://t.co/TwYQznbUgY

He's David Hogg! When you enter the political arena to the degree that he has, you lose your cover or leeway https://t.co/HZ58osiv72

The college freshman in question spends every waking moment attacking anyone that isn’t a commie, so let’s stop pretending he’s just minding his own business.

Sure, Elise. The problem is @SeanParnellUSA, not the adult with nearly a million followers tweeting out ignorant drivel about "military imperialism." It's so "imperialistic" to offer aid to allies like France and help African nations in their counter-terrorism efforts. https://t.co/JXv7B8i6am

He's fair game. Stop running interference for the moron.

Wait.
Did we raise the age of acceptable criticism for public comments again? https://t.co/9tAxeXSzfg— Chad Felix Greene (@chadfelixg) April 24, 2019
Apparently.
