The thing is that I wrote an essay about how some of the problems veterans face stem from that fact that America doesn't LISTEN.

In response, a number of liberals tried to turn my comments into a referendum on their pet environmental cause.

THIS is why Trump is President.

Folks, you can plow under your lawns, bicycle to work, recycle your plastics and compost your garbage, chain yourselves to a supertanker, march in the streets and occupy the banks, you can stand in the rain protesting oil drilling in the arctic until you die of pneumonia...

... but if you can't get your shit together and FOCUS, if you can't LISTEN, if you keep going down every silly rabbit hole, if pedantry is more important to you than the bigger picture, if you DON'T DROP YOUR PETTY BULLSHIT AND COME TOGETHER, then it's just masturbation.

Because if you don't defeat Trump, if you don't get these assholes out of office, local, state, and national level, then they're going to burn down your planet and poison your future, and all your self-righteous jerking off isn't going to mean a goddamned thing.
