Warriors Ethos Unity Purpose And Life After Service

It doesn't matter the environment, you know, it's the war fighter community who has not only been trained to do it, but has actually done it. They have the experience and they have the experience, they understand the warrior ethos. They have the experience of knowing what it's like to work as a team towards a common goal. These are all things that Americans by and large across the board should be a little bit more intimately involved with, because this is the nature of things. As things become more fragmented, as things become more tribalized, it's the community of war fighters that understand, hey, this is how we keep it together and we move forward. That's what I mean by that. And it gives the war fighter, talk about giving guys like you across the country who have that unique skillset, a real sense of purpose and drawing you away from despair or hopelessness into a purpose. There is no grander purpose than using your skillset that you learned in the military, using that skillset within the civilian context to help save our freedom and our liberty, which is ultimately what this is all about. Yeah, and I think it scares the hell out of certain people. I agree. You know, I don't think there's, boy, I could get into that one. I don't think it's any mystery why when guys come back from war, there's turmoil. Obviously, yes, war does create turmoil. When you come home, there is a separation of, I like to put it this way because I think it's the truest way to put it. When a war fighter gets off active duty, think about when they came on active duty. It's usually at a young age. You're still in a pivotal time in your life. You're still developing and growing, 18, 19 years old. You're learning your values. You're learning a way of life and you take that on. You live it every day. You live in a barracks of people doing what you do. When you're at work, you're still, when you're not at work, you're at work. And so it's a life. It's a lifestyle. It's a way of living. And then you get out of the military and those people that you were in the same environment with that you grew with, that you developed with, well, they're no longer in your life. These people become your family. So when you get out of the military, it's not just leaving a job. This is where people get it confused. You're not leaving a job. You're actually being orphaned. Wow. You're being orphaned. You are an adult orphan. And then there comes the identity crisis, right? And then you got to figure out, where do you fit in this world? Where's the family in this world? And that's not the easiest thing to do. And so there's a lot of isolation that comes with that. But I would also say, if you look at what they did with opiates, you look what they do with psych meds, you look what they do, how they avoid things that actually heal like psychedelic therapy, like plant medicine. When you see all the avoidance of that stuff, but then you see people getting crazily addicted and having their mind completely polluted by other things, completely government sanctioned. I mean, by the time I got off opiates, I was on 30 milligrams of morphine, 70 milligrams of OxyContin every day. And I'm walking around like, I don't have the problem. Believe me, I had the problem. But where did that start? It started being in a hospital and they're just throwing that stuff out. And then you got Pharma in bed with the Sackler family and they're making all kinds of money.
