    My dad did 4 in the navy and got out chillin on ships and seeing some places, I haven’t talked to him for a long time cause he burned that bridge in other traditional shitty family ways,. Over covid out of the blue he commented on Facebook on one of my posts that protestors aren’t a problem if we shoot them, and that I’m “a pussy lib who hates America.”

    I’m 100% with the VA for injuries sustained in an IED blast. ^(and he knows that)

      Bruh, I am so fucking sorry that not only does your father seem uncaring in general (going off the “traditional shitty family ways” comment), but the fact that he completely disregarded the very real sacrifice you endured for the United States in general sounds like the most unbelievably frustrating and demoralizing thing ever. I’ve been fortunate enough to never deploy to a combat zone (all of my deployments have been to friendly zones), and I cannot imagine what you’ve been through, and how you’re contending with a family member disregarding it. I hope you have all the support in the world my dude!
