It would also solve the global birth rates declining, just saying...
5 problems at once. 😁
Complaining about age discrimination? OKAY
welcome to the US Army, private.
I dont see the issue, obviously they'll just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and win the war, it was easy back in their day so it'll be easy for them now. Kids today are just lazy
I don’t think Vietnam is views as easy nor was it successful.
Seems the comment you replied to was a joke, friend
No doubt. In response to such a joke, boomers would take credit for a time when the military was successful. My reply is an attempt to preemptively take the wind out of their sails.
What do you mean? Vietnam was successful at destroying free press so no conflict after it would ever show the people the true horrors of war.

This is exactly the time, send them off to die for the bullshit they voted for.
Draft the rich. Working class solidarity is fundamental for revolution. Boomers and Zoomers need to co-operate to defeat the Epstein class.
if they would start drafting the rich, wars would suddenly stop and there would be world peace.
Soldiers would suddenly make tax free millions while not actually going to warzones. They'd still rape children, like real soldiers
There are many, many millions more of us than there are of them. If we can organize, we can make it happen.
Silly child, we send the young and poor to die. Welcome to Humanity.
How about just republicans. If you vote for trump, it automatically signs you up for the draft.
Nah, to partisan. Id agree with, if your representative doesn't vote in the war time resolution to not go to war, then you are added to the draft list. Doesn't matter if you are a Republican, Democrat, independent, or didn't vote. It would make the representative actually have to represent their constituents, and face the wrath of their constituents if they go against them. (Also, no one exempt from the draft, don't look at age, sex, wealth etc. random selection off of everyone). If your 76 year old grandma gets called to go, she goes. Overweight? You'll probably die in boot camp.
It would probably end all wars ever from starting involving our country ever again, lol
I confess to tapping the speaker icon in the corner. I must be punished.
Did it work??
Shut up. 😡

You want to send grandma and grandpa to war? They fought in Korea and Viet Nam, and some of them in the Gulf War. They're sick of war. And, while some of them are MAGA, they are those who voted for "no new wars" and are now pissed at Trump.
Bernie is a boomer and so are many of the people who support and voted for him.
If you want to stop being painted with one brush, be the change you want to see. It's not a generational war, it's a fucking class war.
How about we send the people who support it, and started it--the filthy rich?
Definitely. Generational divide is another tool of capital to reduce solidarity of the working class.
Discrete generations aren't even a real thing. The idea that 2 people born in consecutive years are in different generations is absurd. They have more in common than 2 people born at the opposite ends of a generation label.
Bernie isn't a boomer. He's actually so old he's in the silent generation that was before the boomers. 1941. Basically he was born before WW2 ended, so no one came back and had all the wreckless sex starting the baby boom yet
Dude why do you think they had Vietnam?
Wasn't enough houses, colleges, and jobs for all of the boomers that were coming of age.
Cull the herd a bit. Get the ones that couldn't afford to avoid it into the military. Problem solved.
Not enough? Have a domestic war on "drugs", selectively target blacks and Latinos, and give them free housing in a state or federal prison.
puts blunt down coz shit just got too real
Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck dick for coke. Now that's an addiction. You ever suck some dick for marijuana?
-- Bobby Kennedy
Or maybe Bobby Sagat. Either way.
Nah Vietnam was because there cold war was too cold and that's not good for military industrial complex. 60k people is not really enough to make a huge difference in housing.
Would also be legit hilarious.
I mean modern weapons are so easy to use that even the elderly can be effective with them. I agree, let's draft them. More jobs, more houses for real Americans
It's just like their videogames on the AARP website.

I ran into an elderly man at the grocery store this weekend, proudly wearing a crisp new "Trump 2028" baseball cap. Make his dumb ass a front-lines infantryman.
Old Man's War by John Scalzi
I mean, with modern drone armies, there's less and less need to restrict the draft to they young...
The Old Bastards have proven the "need" did not exist during World War II. Doubt it existed at any point after that.
Thanks to Amazon there should be a good 40,000 houses available pretty soon.
And they all seem to know so goddamn much, I’m sure they’d be really effective on the battlefield.
Can you imagine how horrific it would be for the sergeants to wrangle a squad or platoon of boomers and actually get anything accomplished?
