    They really shouldn’t want disgruntled millennials. I would be a truly catastrophic draftee, and not because I’d be incompetent.

      Could be hearsay, but I saw someone say even mentioning knowing what Fragging is during your interview is enough to get you disqualified.

    Can’t the US government and their enablers just calm down about waging wars? They’re quite literally one of the biggest issues of this world, and they think that they’re not the problem…

      At the same time we should not give up diplomatic options. We should send Iran the entire cabinet as a gesture of good will.

            While a great sentiment, it’s unbelievably unrealistic. There will always be things people will die for. Likewise, there will always be things people will kill for.

              Yankees bombing schoolchildren is not just “a fact of life” good lord. Your army is the single most murderous force in the last 100 years or so. Death to Amerikkka.

                It doesn’t matter what country we’re talking about. People on a fundamental level will never stop killing eachother. Downvote me all you like. It will never stop. We will always find some reason to kill other people. Whether they’re poor, or a different color than us, or because your government tells you they’re a threat to you, or whether they’re building bombs to use on you, or they’re raping and pillaging your home. You act like there’s some magic light switch you can just flip and turn off all the violence. It must be nice to live in fairytale land. You yourself are a contradiction to yourself “oh stop all murder! Except amerikkka! Kill all Americans!”

                  lmao your yankee propaganda has you convinced that everyone is just as murderous as your stromtroops, they’re just faster and better equipped, but I can assure you that neither is true. You’re so deep in your propaganda that you can’t separate a population from it’s government either. Do you realise that your life isn’t magically tethered to the yankee government and people won’t just flop to the ground all over your occupied areas as soon as the white house is bombed?

              We should start getting rid of the people who actively want that. Dangerous line of thinking i guess, but nobody can tell me that the wold wouldnt be net positive for removing trump, putin, xi, weidel, etc.

              Edit: counts for everyone next in line as well so long as they try to keep the idiology/insanity up

    After watching Russian soldiers getting blown to bits by drones for the last 3-4 years, I am good on ever joining the army.

    They recruit those gen-z maga true believers focused on looksmaxxing though. Army uniform looks cool. Makes you Chad.

    Raised from 35 to 42, which is a big jump. At 35, the physical downward spiral is just beginning. At 42, it is typically well underway, especially in the U.S., where obesity runs rampant. They must be anticipating a slog similar to that when Russia invaded Ukraine.

      Not just in Iran, Lindsey Graham seems to think we’re also gonna invade Cuba, probably parts of Latin America, and who knows, maybe Canada or Mexico to top it off. Multi-front wars aren’t a bad idea right? We have the logistics to fight two separate long-term wars, so what’s a third or a fifth?
