Since Diaper Donnie is soon going to be rubbing his hands in glee to send Americans now into his meat grinder over wars he starts, how do you plan to avoid the draft?
I’m too old to join, thank god. Too old and too out of shape for them to bother caring. Plus a lot of psychological issues that will make me more likely shoot my superior that’s telling me I need to kill innocents to help king pedo succeed in his bullshit missions.
I still find it hard to believe it could happen, and certainly dont want to be proven wrong. Probably helps that I wouldn’t be eligible.
So the average person is out of shape, overweight, and knows nothing about the military or how to use weapons. Army boot camp may be only 10 weeks, but you have a very unready population and war has gotten much more complicated than it used to be. I find it hard to believe even the war-mongering fools currently running the us, would get us into something big enough and long-running enough for a draft to make a worthwhile difference.
Look at Iran. They might have started a never-ending war, but the approach is to sit back and bomb it. That won’t lead to a draft
Stepping back a bit, what about Iraq? That’s a bigger question since I don’t think we have the readiness to do that again, and it did require a ton of people. But they never instituted a draft, and the buildup was far too quick for one to be useful. … although that was also an international presence and the current regime is making sure that will never happen again
Then we get to Putin. Look at everything he’s gone through to avoid a draft, despite getting his country bogged down starting an absolutely brutal war resulting in hundreds of thousands of Russians killed or maimed. We all make the agent krasnov jokes, but there’s far more in common from one tyrant to another than any of us like
