Something that we never get a full perspective of is all the different sides and facets of war. There are those are for it because they are believing in the good, and then there are those who are against it because it only leads to endless violence. Then even on the other, other side of things, we have those who want outside help because they believe that it is needed to stop violence and those who believe that outside interference will only make things worse. All these different stories and opinions give value to what war and trauma can cause. There are just so many opposing sides that we can never really understand the full perspective or story at one point. What we have to do is take a stronger and more critical approach to things because a liberal vs. conservative approach may never really detail all the experiences that everyone accounts for. To have a liberal point of a view is a privilege yes, but we still have to main critical and validate those other points of view because otherwise, it hurts the thoughts and opinions of those who don’t have this privilege. The Viet Nam War was a great example of how we’ve been told these little things, but now we have to understand that there’s so much more than what we’re being told. What’s there left to understand and ponder of the many great mysteries of war?
