dude's apex was the 'making copies' guy on SNL. one bit.

all downhill from there. he's a no-service shitbag who wants to say other people's kids should be conscripted.

all of this ignores the enormous harm a draft would do to our military - because I guarantee you the rich still won't serve, they'll all have bone spurs and asthma that fixes itself after a decade. and the poor will have to serve instead.

meanwhile, today, we have one of the best militaries in the world because the people serving genuinely want to be there - either for the service itself or benefits after - and all of this ignores the giant elephant in the room: conscription's great for meat waves.

anything requiring skill gets fucked. small unit tactics take ages to learn. logistical operations take longer. and you're not going to get conscripts in the backbone combat service and support units because that shit takes even longer to teach than infantry stuff. two year hitch? hell that's just barely enough time to get through basic, AIT and airborne school. that's when you're qualified to no longer be a danger to your fellow servicepeople.

I don't want to serve with conscripted people who are gonna get high/fucked up and get us all murdered. we saw what happened in vietnam, no thanks.
