    I mean… My dad who passed and his brother who is very much alive moved tot the US from Iran in 1968 and served in Vietnam in the Engineering corps and lived through American interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan. My Mom’s family are Iraqi lol

      So they’re from the “America is the land of milk and honey, where there is endless opportunity, and dreams can come true” generation of migrants.

      My own family is the same, but the illusion has been shattered for them over the last several years.
