veteran

Veterans should be the ones prioritised in any country as they fought for the rights of their people. However, in the woke climate we live in today, this seems rather out of fashion. Making sanctuary cities for illegal immigrants is the way to move forward apparently. X users on the other hand are empathising with the veteran. 

This year has seen a record high of veterans calling their crisis line for help. According to NBC News, the Department of Veterans Affairs has reported a surge in calls to the Veterans Crisis Line, indicating heightened mental health concerns among post-9/11 veterans and service members. In March, the hotline received over 88,000 calls, texts, and chats, marking its highest monthly volume ever. 

Furthermore, this figure is nearly 28% higher than the busiest month during the initial 10 months of the pandemic and 15% more than the spike in calls seen in August 2021 after the fall of Kabul. Veterans and experts attribute this increase to the mental health toll of the 20-year conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, which took a heavy toll on service members.

X users empathising with veteran crying for help

Conservatives state that Americans should pay attention to the homeless veterans as much as they do to illegal immigrants and refugees. Following that, it seems that most are agreeing with this rhetoric. Some find this to be a sad reality as those who served their country are facing abandonment from the country that they served for. 

 

X users state that the way they are treated in America is despicable as billions of Dollars are spent on wars in the last few years. However, with an ironic twist, those who help protect their own country are left abandoned after their job is done. Mental health among veterans should be something that is taken seriously, especially those who are suffering from PTSD. 

In addition to this, Tristan Tate, Andrew Tate’s brother responds by saying that the man has since received proper help. Following that, Libs of TikTok did emphasise that not many are able to be in his position. There are still an abundance of ex soldiers who do not have access to proper mental health care.
