Please draft me. I can definitely be trusted around military material and commanding officers.

A lot of zoomers are getting too old to be drafted for the front lines now at least. But hell, knowing how much the ruling class loves killing kids we might have to worry more about protecting Gen Alphas
The draft age goes up to 35 iirc so still the majority of millennials
It's 18-26 for draft service. 17-45 is the emergency militia range. Which means anyone over 26 will be press ganged into national guard status after the current waves are deployed.
In Ukraine they've successfully demonstrated that drafting 26-65 is easier. I wouldn't put it past them to change the draft age in order to reduce resistance.
Holy hell I thought it was way lower. Like 16-25 years old for front lines.
I need to educate myself.
Wow so I could be drafted. That would be wild. Imagine my owl ass on a battlefield I'd probably accidentally explode myself or something.
In Ukraine they're drafting 55 year olds. 👀
I thought I was safe when I turned 36 
You were thinking of the normal recruitment age. For a draft the range is higher.
Draft is whatever they want/need. Recruitment will be exhausted first, then they'll expand it. Older people will get drafted based on profession (medical professionals will be drafted at basically any age).
I think the ruling class learned in Ukraine that drafting older people has less resistance than drafting young people.
I would not put it past them to create an army of 26-65 and leave the young out of it in order to reduce resistance.
Zoomers are currently hurtling toward 30 and definitly arent kids
the younger zoomers are still in high school but the middle section of them are prime military recruiting age which I think is the point of the meme
Is he flossing?
Yeah isnt flossing from like 2016-17? Thata ten years ago
Could be but kids still do it all the time
hell yeah, generational war is stupid.
It's understandable when it's against boomers because intragenerationally the psychos manipulated the lead-brains into purging any leftist sentiments, but even they are the ideological descendants of gilded age perverts.
cognitihazard comment, most of the world boomers are victims of colonialism and lived the struggle through post colonial rebuild, the non-white boomers in the first world faced apartheid and segregation laws, when you say "boomers" don't forgot you're also mentioning poc boomers who were forced out public spaces, queer boomers who were forced to stay hidden and all of them are victims of lead poisoning. Don't forget that.
Anti-boomerism is a great way to ease people into class politics.
If we can convince millennials and gen Z they’re ontologically proletariat and the boomers are the generation that got a massive lucky break and conspired to leave everyone younger than them holding the bag, that could be a contender against racism. And with zoomers, we can larp as rightoids for a bit and say “us zoomers literally saved the GOP and made conservatism the cultural hegemony again…and boomers STILL call us easily offended! What a bunch of ungrateful bastards! This is why I left the right!”
Again, this is a great start to a possible leftist pipeline. “Boomer” will be a dogwhistle for “bourgeoisie”.
I feel like with boomers it had a lot to do with them being the wealthiest generation in history. Wealthy boomers did a lot of class warfare against literally everyone else, and after it started impacting peoples lives significantly that's when the anti-boomer stuff became common.
Which in a way kind of sucks because it ignored that there were plenty of poor boomers, and leftist boomers. It also distracted from the fact that it was a class issue, making it easy for it to just be co-opted by the right later into generational warfare.
No war but the class war stays true once again.
shitting on boomers gets a pass. only exception.
If it really comes down to it i look like one of the bad guys I'm going for a high ranking frag someone with stars on their shirt i don't really know the ranks
(I'm not even in the us so it'll have to REALLY come down to it)
I dont think I can legally say who I would go after.
haha no america has to fight to the last man sorry no backsies.
