You’re jaded, specifically if you think the author of this comic made it as a serious thing where the whole point is the protagonist goes to a panda express and says no tip because of pearl harbor.
Yeah… Probably. I think I’ve just seen too many Vietnam vets make a public scene over stupid shit like this. Or the lack of a military discount. Or people not thanking them for their service when they go out wearing the hat.
It’s probably less of a problem than I think, and just a small minority that stands out because it’s weird.

What’s the exaggeration? Maybe I’m jaded by the Internet, but this seems like a completely plausible scenario.
Without the exaggeration, to me it’s just as likely that the author is being racist and dumb themselves.
