Probably not what people want to hear but re-enacting the draft would be a surefire way to weaken the US military. Without the draft, the US military has formed a uniform ideology. It's mostly hogs and imperialists who choose to enlist.
If unwilling participants were forced to enlist, it would weaken the whole structure. Especially with how unpopular the US-Israel-Iran was is. If libs started getting drafted, they might start doing some actual resistance, not just like funny sign parade.
I agree 100% except I think its a good idea.
Yeah... and the possibility of revolution becomes infinitely more likely if there's military support
I hope they do it then. There is also the benefit of seeing the most dedicated imperialist foot-soldiers die before the draftees, thinning out the more dedicated fascists would be a net positive too.
