Me not having kids and ending my family line with me:
When I was a kid, I thought this line was a joke
It is a joke, just a different kind
I don't have kids, but if I did, I sure as fuck wouldn't raise them to join the military. I saw though that shit after 9/11.
Dude, I go back to Vietnam. Wait until Trump calls for a draft, with lots of loopholes for wealthy kids.

Irans kids.
Brutal. 😢
While in israel there's a draft, in the US it's voluntary.
Nitpicking but still an interesting distinction.
I have to keep saying this, and I apologize for the repetitiveness, but Republicans can stop all of this at any time. They can fire him, reign him in, anything to stop this.
Yep. But they won't. Go to the conservative subreddit. They are fucking LOVING it.
Those conservative subs are 80% bots. Of course, the 20% that aren't bots are being swayed by it.
I hate seeing this comforting fiction.
The truth is there are absolutely tens of millions of people who think Trump is fantastic and will bend over backwards to vocally support him for virtually anything he does. Some of those people have Reddit accounts. Most of those frequent /r/conservative.
Are there bots among them? Almost certainly. We do see slowdowns there whenever overseas propaganda mills go down. Then there's the Twitter fiasco where so many of their MAGA influencers turned out to be from Eurasia.
But patting each other on the back about how 80% of them are bots serves only to undermine the passion with which people should be opposing MAGA. I guarantee many would-be Clinton and Harris voters stayed home because they were sure MAGA was an extremely vocal minority almost entirely propped up by bots. Just look at the aftermath of those elections on Reddit and Lemmy; it's generally mass confusion.
I'm not comforting anyone, this is reality. How many Magas show up here? They can't talk to us because they get their asses handed to them. The bot to maga ratio also doesn't lend itself to helping them out. If you're talking truth social? Then yeah, maybe it's 80% real people.

What’s a subreddit?
😂
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. You must be cautious.
It’s where bots go to argue with each other.
The sub of a domreddit obviously

Imagine if we could all agree, every side of every conflict, that all the soldiers just turn around and point the guns at the people telling them to kill.
Saving this for later. So many fucking boot lickers loooove our country but will never have to worry about being drafted to fight ANOTHER pointless fucking war
Yes but everybody will say to them "thank you for your service". Fucking killers for hire.
I don't know if that will be true for much longer. I think people's attitudes on american military worship might be beginning to change, starting yesterday. I'm already seeing a boatload of it.
The lower class always suffers the most during a war. The MAGA fucks are visiting their private doctors to get a bone spurs excuse.
When the rich wage war it's the poor who die.
I'm choosing to interpret this as the regular people's kids have armed up and are hunting down Trump and Netanyahu's kids.
What a better world you're imagining.

It has been the rich versus EVERYONE ELSE since time immemorial…. Even the fucking Pharaos back in Egypt
"it ain't me, it ain't me. I'm no senator's son"
Are my kids aiming at theirs at least?
I don't think my kids are terrorist pedophile bootlickers
No but they might be drafted in the pedophile autocrats decide so.
When will NATO do regime change for the U.S.
Help us please.
That's my hobby, too. We need all the help we can get countering the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
Raise your kids so they don't volunteer as an imperial enforcer.
You forgot the kids of the Iranian regime.
For thousands of years it has been like this. The internet showed everyone how it has always worked:
The rich vs. the rest of us.

I'm very happy I didn't reproduce. For me, the bottom picture is simply a blank space
I’ve felt this way before, but I also wonder if I would have had kids in another life where the world wasn’t so fucked. I feel occasionally that I was robbed of parenthood by our current state of things.

The one small consolation is that we don't have a military draft, and most young people who pursue the military have a family with military service background. However, the other largest cohort are young people with no family support structures at all, so they give their lives to the war machine to try to do things like get an education.
Still, people choosing to enter military service is way down and more US citizens than ever fail to meet the fitness standards and requirements.
So, it's not really "your kids" unless you chose to push them to military service or were such a bad/absent/dead parent that they had few other choices.
Now, if they try re-instating the draft, than this meme will be a lot more accurate.
This of course is not meant to minimize how insane this push for war is, nor how damaging it will be to those who are in military service, for whom this meme is very accurate.
I work with 100% veterans and active duty. I have thousands of clients, all veterans or active duty.
The vast majority of people do not join because of family tradition. The vast majority join for the absolutely insane benefits that come along with service.
Many of them also join because it is basically their only/best option.

Unfortunately yes, and in some cases a whole people of a place send themselves to serve in exchange for those benefits, like American Samoans to recruiting stations as much as Nepalese to sign up hoping to become Gurkhas.
