they’re gung ho until they have to sleep in a tent
I dont see the issue, obviously they’ll just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and win the war, it was easy back in their day so it’ll be easy for them now. Kids today are just lazy
I don’t think Vietnam is views as easy nor was it successful.
Vietnam war medals are participation trophies.
Send ICE
This is exactly the time, send them off to die for the bullshit they voted for.
It would also solve the global birth rates declining, just saying…
5 problems at once. 😁
I’m cackling for this one folks
Complaining about age discrimination? OKAY
welcome to the US Army, private.
I confess to tapping the speaker icon in the corner. I must be punished.
If you want to be punished I can connect you with some people.
How about just republicans. If you vote for trump, it automatically signs you up for the draft.
Nah, to partisan. Id agree with, if your representative doesn’t vote in the war time resolution to not go to war, then you are added to the draft list. Doesn’t matter if you are a Republican, Democrat, independent, or didn’t vote. It would make the representative actually have to represent their constituents, and face the wrath of their constituents if they go against them. (Also, no one exempt from the draft, don’t look at age, sex, wealth etc. random selection off of everyone). If your 76 year old grandma gets called to go, she goes. Overweight? You’ll probably die in boot camp.
It would probably end all wars ever from starting involving our country ever again, lol
You want to send grandma and grandpa to war? They fought in Korea and Viet Nam, and some of them in the Gulf War. They’re sick of war. And, while some of them are MAGA, they are those who voted for “no new wars” and are now pissed at Trump.
Bernie is a boomer and so are many of the people who support and voted for him.
If you want to stop being painted with one brush, be the change you want to see. It’s not a generational war, it’s a fucking class war.
How about we send the people who support it, and started it–the filthy rich?
Bernie isn’t a boomer. He’s actually so old he’s in the silent generation that was before the boomers. 1941. Basically he was born before WW2 ended, so no one came back and had all the wreckless sex starting the baby boom yet
Would also be legit hilarious.
I mean, with modern drone armies, there’s less and less need to restrict the draft to they young…
The Old Bastards have proven the “need” did not exist during World War II. Doubt it existed at any point after that.
I mean modern weapons are so easy to use that even the elderly can be effective with them. I agree, let’s draft them. More jobs, more houses for real Americans
Dude, I have trouble operating a cell phone.
I ran into an elderly man at the grocery store this weekend, proudly wearing a crisp new “Trump 2028” baseball cap. Make his dumb ass a front-lines infantryman.
There is a compelling argument to partially revert to the days of warrior kings. Every government who wants war has to be conscripted to fight on the front lines.
