All my Army buddies under E-4 are being advised by command on how to get foodstamps, yet we can shovel billions into Israel and Ukraine. Why 'defend' an empire that hates you?
@RegalBeagle as an outsider, how usa treated its veterans never made any sense to me. I am talking past decades, not recently. Like a homeless vet was a thing in usa since at least vietnam and was normalized in tv, movies and press.
@Justicar The Rambo series kicks off with homeless veteran abuse, by shitty cops no less. I'm slow. It took me a while to figure out that I had been lied to when I signed up. I try to talk people out of joining/re-enlisting, but the propaganda is thick
Could be worse they could refuse food stamps for veterans
I am not disagreeing with what you said,
"All my Army buddies under E-4 are being advised by command on how to get foodstamps, yet we can shovel billions into Israel and Ukraine. Why 'defend' an empire that hates you?"
@shortstories When the VAIDs kicks in, I'll bet the military will hold medication over soldiers' heads to get them to re-enlist. It's already that way if you get divorced while you're in.
