To prevent a veteran from committing suicide, I’m not choosing to go bomb kids in the middle east for subsidized college. Sorry they’re sad about what they did, if only someone would’ve told them what they were signing up for. /s
Another thing I never see anyone in US is talking about: If US veterans need so much help (and they really do), what is happening to people in counties they were fighting against? And those are not only soldiers, but whole families. Everyone ober there has witnessed same shit they did, kids, elders, moms…
“Developed” countries see “undeveloped” countries (or whatever euphemism you want to use) as Others. We may be the target of their charity or of their pity sometimes, but we remain a mysterious monolith. I’m reminded of that whenever someone says “The US is [generally something bad] among developed countries”.
I’m not angry about it. I get it. I still wish it wasn’t that way.
As trivia, at least one “undeveloped” country has universal healthcare.

Least ignorant Redditor.
