Is a debate about how the US government handles mental health problems amongst veterans really “wildly relevant” to the Technology community on Lemmy?
Idk, to me it seems like they’re not actually that related at all, beyond them using a database to attempt to figure out who’s more at risk.

Sorry Zek, when technology affects people’s lives it’s technology news. Especially when affects who lives and dies.

Of course it’s a political discussion. It’s a discussion of whether the US government should have their system for triaging veteran mental health changed (if what this article states is true, then yeah maybe they should).
I’m not really sure why something being a matter of politics makes it a bad thing.
Regardless, it’s only tangentially related to technology. That’s my point.
