    I mean that would’ve been my attitude for just about every war.

    Except maybe WW2. Killing Nazis would actually be enjoyable.

    But while I’m medically immune to a draft, if it happened to me for this war it’d be a death sentence. If I survived the team killing exercise, I’d be executed for it.

    Our entire military should effectively be on strike. The ones caring out Trump’s orders I actually hope they die and fuck it up so bad nobody wants them to make it home. Fuck every one of them.

    Can we stop talking about this nobody?

    I agree with him, but I’d also agree with my neighbor who probably does something more important than market themselves

    The finding out stage.

    Just what the fuck did all these assholes think they were supporting?

    They are so worried about posturing as being masculine, I guess.

      soon as someone informs him he’s too old for the draft he’ll move on to his next incorrectly appraised outrage

      Don’t remove people’s agency. Joe isn’t some evil mastermind he’s just a meathead with a microphone. All those people chose to listen to him of their own free will.

        You can both hate the meat microphone for echoing support and hate the meat sheep for following instructions.

        Don’t remove Joe’s either. He’s in a situation of his own making.

        He chose to be a dumbass meathead who promoted every dumbass grifter that came by and gave him some money to his dumb as shit gullible audience. He cultivated the intellectually incurious as his core audience, then proceeded to shove far right propagandists in their face.

        We all knew this would happen, and he was more than happy to support these people until it started having real negative effects. I hope Joe enjoys the products of his career. Namely, being associated with bringing trump to power. I hope he never gets to live it down

    The draft never left, that’s what the Selective Service is and all men in the US are required to be part of it at 18.

    The Service is supposed to be turned off when we are done with the draft.

        I cannot tell you how many people thought that Project 2025 was just a “liberal conspiracy theory”.

        I’d try to tell them it’s a PDF they can, you know, download and read, if they had any actual doubts.

        Crickets. I know, the idea of getting someone to read something, never mind if they are also some winger, or a low-info non-voter or a reactionary centrist…but still.

          Not as far as I know, I think the only reference to the draft was this one:

          The Army no longer reflects national demographics to the degree that it did before 1974, when the draft was eliminated.

          There is a bunch of other stuff in there though about military recruitment in high schools, and all high schoolers taking the military entrance exam (ASVAB).

      What?!

      Like, yeah, rogan is dumb as fuck…

      But he’s telling them that they should go if they’re doing a draft because he knows they won’t

      For fucks sake man, how did you not get that immediately?

        Sure, now he does, but he’s been talking about these folks as if they were normal people for a while now; they are not contributing anything except hate, they do not have good intentions, they are not for the people. They are fakers, liars, grifters, leeches, vampires and he supported them through and through.

          It’s not that what you’re saying is false, it’s that there’s no logical connection to the discussion…

          Like you’re just saying random things about the subjects of discussion, with no regard to topic

          Like, if I said Starlink was causing satellite pollution, and you replied “Elon got his dick mangled trying to make it bigger”…

          Even if true, it’s just derailing any attempt at conversation, and who really knows if it’s true?

              If you want to waste time having a discussion about this monkey go right ahead

              Even this…

              Valid point that this is a waste of time, but if you hadn’t typed that it would already be over.

      I don’t think he has a side other than money tbh. He hangs out with whoever gets his podcast publicity and he agrees with whoever is on his podcast. And once you let a few fascists in, it’s gonna be mostly fascists unless you do something about it.

    By cultivating radical individualism conservatives shoot themselves in the foot. In their vision of freedom any obligation on the citizen is an outrage.

    America is weak.
