When I say this it’s because I’m talking about all my friends who killed themselves because they served in Iraq and Afghanistan. I was against it then and I’m against it now, just waiting for people to start asking me “so you support terrorists??” again
Inability to constructively engage with nuance, complexity and contradicting goals is the worst blight on political discourse.
My condolences for losing your friends.
