firefighters are reactionary in the same way that nurses tend to be - they hate taxes and "bureaucracy" and in some cases "wokeness" but will be sympathetic to any person they come across in a state of vulnerability, instead of viewing them with suspicion and wanting to subjugate them like cops do
If your politics don't get in the way of my medical care or my fire being put out, during the time I'm having a medical problem or unwelcome fire I really don't care what their politics are. If my home is ablaze and a fascist goes in to put it out good, he's fixing my fire problem for free and risking harm. It's a double win here.

What's up with this?
I think it's because both firefighting and (some specializations of) nursing pay pretty well so they're materially well off, and they both also attract people from blue collar backgrounds which tend to be culturally conservative (not denigrating them for this, but it is what it is)

Always be thinking about this (as a very academic-background far left nerd going into trades)
I have to also point out that whenever pigs and firefighters fight each other, the firefighters usually beat the fuck out of the cops.
This is because firefighters have physical fitness standards
And more of a tendency to run towards danger, rather than away from whatever they percieve as danger. No firefighter is gonna start doing barrel-rolls because of an acorn, that's for sure.
You can’t be 300 pounds and sit in your cruiser in front of the donut shop as a firefighter
I heard about this cops v firefighters hockey game once where there was a bit of a brawl, as hockey is to do, and the firefighter absolutely beat the shit out of the cop. He'd probably been waiting to do that forever until the ice gave him a pass.

I love how French cops and French firefighters have a fued and fight whenever Paris riots
I mean...it's a public serving pretty decent gig where you're on for two weeks but have the next two weeks entirely to do whatever, you need to be buff and you're automatically popular. It's probably one of the best options for an institution to flood with leftists. It's already got a red colour theme going.
They have silver outfits, but yeah. One of the few jobs that lets people just people without any any worries
Red trucc
Only issue is you can't have facial hair
When you're go to move during a riot is to get your fire gear on, set yourself on fire and calmly walk towards cops, I know which side I'm rooting for without hesitation.
I like to have a red lives matters flag on my car, because cops are easily confused.
They probably still assume you're a Right-winger though?
I've seen chuds who have the thin red, blue, green flag combo. I just assume anyone with any of those or the black and white US flag is a fascist. Am I wrong here? Then again I just assume anyone with any US flag is a fascist.
What's the green stand for? Forestry?
Weed plug/dispensary workers
good post!
Military I think
You don’t understand the brave sacrifice of those who jerk off in an air-conditioned port-a-potty for several hours a day.
Financial services
🫡 back the boys in blue (armani suits)
border patrol
The thin green line between civilization and a world of stolen picknick baskets
Communist firefighters 
"All workers matter"
That scene from movies when a lady is like "my baby", but it's an old guy going "my assets" and the cops breaks into the house to rescue hard drives and portfolios.
if only there was some way to unite librarians, firefighters, and based nurses we could actually build a dual power social service system
Most nurses I’ve met are turbo libs 
Lucky. All the ones I know are conservatives that think being bisexual is a mental illness
All the worst girls in my school went into nursing. 80% of them are still anti vax
Firefighters in the US are carbrained macho goobers who insist in unnecessarily oversized apparatuses and consistently fight street safety projects. Don’t tell me they care about lives, they can munch my shit.
Yeah but if my house is burning i'll still call them
I see more than a couple 'red line' american flags and it's always mixed feelings
Same, I squint really hard at first because I think it's thin blue line flag, but then relax after seeing it's the thin red line, but then again wonder if it's a coded dog whistle. 
i feel like it's usually just a firefighter, someone with connections to one, or someone who's witnessed the good work they do. i doubt most people without one of those would bother with it. unlike the thin blue line, they're not trying to make a political statement, and almost everyone respects firefighters. i don't see it any different from an EMT or conservationist thin line flags
I've never smoked weed with a cop.
