So the media could do a better job, but also the people we're talking about are not reading news stories, watching the news, or even documentaries. They get their "news" from Facebook posts or message boards. They believe every urban legend because they don't trust anything that challenges them

Random firings of federal employees disproportionately impacts veterans anyway—like 30% of Feds are vets—and the VA stuff also directly screws them, Trump is already the worse president for veterans since the Bonus Army

I could've written 4x as much about the rise of Gordon Ramsay/2000s era reality TV, and why his macho jerk reputation is incorrect, but I settled for this quick column on why he's such a good example of how "kind" does not always mean "nice": www.bostonglobe.com/2025/02/19/a...
