Kill all the bugs!!

People who vote, might end up voting for the “wrong candidate”, and we can’t have that now can we. People who enlist, don’t really have the opportunity to screw up like that.

and dying for israel too.

As if we haven't already had to sacrifice enough, now they want our lives directly on the line. Hey, you know all those years your spent paying off ludicrous college debt at shitty low-paying jobs, living in unaffordable housing, pushing back starting families? Well, now that you've finally found your footing, we want you to upend everything you've been fighting uphill for and take on a new fight you didn't ask for! The country that's done nothing to help you, but that has demanded you to give more and more over the course of decades (and that shit on your generation for taking so long to meet adult milestones through no fault of your own), now needs your blood for yet another pointless war.

milleneals are likely aged out of the services, at least most of them. gen z is thier target, and upcoming alpha EVENTUALLY.

Problem is that most of them would fail qualifications.

This way we get two birds stoned at once!

ICE is reserved for domestic terrorism. You need professionals over there.

And more than enough training to die for their country.

they would probably turn on each other before that happens.

Canada's enlistment age has been up to 50 for quite some time now. Basic gets you into shape... Or it doesn't, and you fail out.

In the grand scheme of things this really doesn't seem like a big deal. I think it's newsworthy because it reflects a clear anxiety in the US Military about their inability to fill their recruitment numbers, but beyond that It's not really all that unusual.

I had the body of a soldier, but it took too much space in the freezer.

Yeah, I didn't want to die for an idiot government in my 20s, but now I don't want to and am not getting up and into a warzone. I'm too old for this shit and I'm already in my pajamas. And my feetsies hurt from walking too much and I'm full of cheese.

I don't care if a bunch of self-delusional 40 year old MAGAs think they're tough enough to go kill all those weak Iranians, and end up getting themselves killed. The more the merrier, as far as I'm concerned.

[The younger generations] also watched generation after generation of veterans get sold down the river…

General Benjamin Button probably wouldn't work out, anyway.

read an article about the enlistment problems back '24, most are still preparing for college, and they see even some min wage jobs have better pay then the military, and better hours. why have shit hours and low pay and very restrictive requirements, when you can have part time job that pays more. maybe works in rural areas where theres practically no jobs, instead more middle income neighborhoods.

the militaryganda movies did help enlistment somehwat(aka top gun maverick)

More meat for the grinder.

I just turned 40 a few months ago. Luckily I'm Canadian and live in the UK, so this doesn't affect me....however my knees and back ache just thinking about it....

I thought that answer was 42?

Overweight and low IQ… oh wait, that want the question.

And Trump will be one of the first people on this list.
