    How does this apply to all of our veterans who experience all of the above because we fought stupid oil wars? And, I really want to stress I’m not saying that to diminish anyone’s struggles. I’m saying it because since 2001 the conservatives have had a veteran fetish. I have experienced all three of those issues because I am a wartime veteran with PTSD who was given no support when I separated. Obama and Biden are the two presidents who actually shifted the overall tone for the VA enough that I’ve been able to get help.

    Fuck man. I’ve already been having a small mental crisis because my chosen career path after university has been obliterated by Trump before I’ve even earned my BS. It’s like every time I stand on my own I get pushed down again
