TexasVet, AKA Sean Sweat, is scamming right-wing communities out of money claiming he's an sick & unemployed veteran, while using said money to buy scopes and ammo (farright)

Who is TexasVet?

He , moderates www.altright.com 's official discord, owns the 14words discord server and is a member of Identity Europa.

TexasVet's real name is Sean Sweat, a self-professed army veteran from Texas. Very active on social media, Sean/TexasVet has leveraged his position to launch a successful GoFundMe asking for money to buy food and gas because, in his words, he has "skin cancer and failing kidneys" and can't find work or drive to the VA.

However, at the same time, Sean/TexasVet was bragging about his new purchase of rifle accessories, something that a person literally having to beg for food and gas money clearly couldn't afford.This "sick, unemployed veteran" has been scamming people out of money with a pity story, using their charity to buy luxury items.

But is Sean/TexasVet even unemployed? in this video, he claims to have to cover up his face because being outed could cost him his job. Said video was also linked to from his public twitter profile, which is under his real name and features a selfie as a profile picture, so it's not clear what's going on except that this guy is lying through his teeth. He has tried to build an image as a prominent right-wing speaker, only to leverage it for a cheap charity scam.

He also calls himself a "Vet," even though he was never deployed.

That isn't the definition of veteran.

A veteran is anyone that serves 180 consecutive days of military service. You do not need to be deployed, you don't need to see combat, you don't need to even be in a combat role.

This childish shit of you all trying your best to dox and attack people is really getting old.

Fuck that faget then , if you didn't deploy your a worse than a fobbit.

So you have to be deployed to be called a vet? Or just in the Army?

A Veteran is someone who served in the US Military and was honorably discharged, the reason is irrelevant. Has nothing to do with deployment.

It's very specific: Title 38 of the Code of Federal Regulations defines a veteran as “a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service and who was discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable.” Now a combat vet is something different, and has a subjective definition.

VicariousJambi ago

Yeah, that's what I thought. So @The-Chronic s comment is a little misleading.

What's misleading about it?

Whether he was deployed or not doesn't matter. He was a Vet either way.

chickenosis ago

What do you mean by that? I'm still not understanding. Maybe your definition of "vet" is different?

That's a cheap way to call yourself a veteran still. But I guess he could be one.

VicariousJambi ago

It's not cheap, it's the literal fucking definition.

chickenosis ago

Then calling yourself a veteran is stupid. It doesn't mean much imo

VicariousJambi ago

It just means you served in the military. It's not really supposed to mean much.
