This might be a good thing, and let me explain why.
One, it shows that they're clearly utterly fucking desperate for competent soldiers, and they realized all the diversity hires have basically fucked them over should they get into an actual shooting war.
Two, seventy fucking percent of military recruits have a family member in the armed forces
There's alot of reasons why people don't want to join the military, but I'd be a good fucking chunk of it basically come down to all those family members convincing the younger generation otherwise.
The military has basically fucked that sheep, and it's going to take along, long while until they're no longer known as the sheep-fuckers amoung those who'd be doing the serious work during serious times.
Or maybe I'm just huffing copium, I dunno.
(As an aside, my boss is a navy vet and he fucking loathes Biden. I'm pretty spicy at times, and he's normally really chill, but even he made me step back and raise an eyebrow or two when the topic of Biden came up. Take that for what it's worth.)
I haven't met a "proud" Vet in a long time who isn't a fucking great-grandparent by this point. All the more recent ones are coming back limping into the VA with crippling disabilities, or such an insane hate for the government it would get them banned off every channel if they let it out.
The prestige and honor is running out as all the old grandpa's who inspired the last few decades worth are dying out, and are being replaced by a walking billboard for how awful an idea it is.
I've met a few under 40. One served in the Navy and basically holds the opinion that US agencies can totally be trusted to at least have the country's long-term survival as its priority. He's always been a bit of a normie twerp though. Tried "calling me out" on me not being on board with respecting trannies once.
A gigantic faggot? In the Navy?
Unheard of.
"I heard there were plenty of seamen in this job. Boy, was I disappointed..."
He isn’t a normie then. He had a few “girl penis” when he was on deployment.
"It's not gay under way, it's only queer on the pier!"
"The ship leaves with X sailors, and comes back with X/2 happy couples!"
In this case, no, he's just a total normie who always follows popular trends. Only plays trending games (usually as soon as it comes out), has almost no unique interests or pursuits of his own, etc. etc.
Did he have fond memories of shore leave in Thailand?
Probably more the Philippines.
I've met a lot of veterans through drug treatment. Proud isn't the word I'd use, either. Well, obviously these ones were broken at some point, but they weren't GI Joe. ONe guy just said he was an infantryman, went to Iraq, the whole 9 yards, there were body parts everywhere, and he started drinking back home for lack or purpose and due to PTSD. I say one guy, but that's basically everyone's story.
These people aren't proud that they went over and fucked up other poor people. Mainly, they went where they were told and tried not do die, because who would you attack exactly? The enemy hides and blows you up with IEDs; snipes at you. The closer they actually were to war on the ground (as opposed to sitting at a desk) it seems like the worse regret they have. Maybe regret isn't the right word.
Right. Its not like WW1/2 vets were coming back happy and functional. But they were still able to cope with their scars and disfunctions by having some pride in what they did or accomplished. Even some of the Korean and Nam ones had something like that to fall back on, even with the losses and forgottenness of their time.
All the boys now are limping back and realizing they sold their bodies to the government for nothing more than a shitty paycheck and some weak benefits. Nothing to show for it otherwise.
I got to see it first with my friends, since we were about 18 on 9/11 and then like I said with other veterans of various generations. The only one I still know in there is counting the days until he can retire with a full pension.
Going to the VA is their second chance to die for their country.
Unfortunate.. you will be sent into battle by incompetent diversity officers that hate you for your gender or race. OPERATION stand behind the darkies... but in reverse.
I mean, that would require me being drafted, and I don't see that going well for anyone.
Plus, if there's one thing I've learned from all the ex-military guys I know, if they don't want to do something, good fucking luck seeing it get done.
My impression has been that they've known it wouldn't work ever since Vietnam or whatever. Not so much that people would resist but that they'd be pressing into service people who are incapable of the job.
I have an in-law who is an Army recruiter at the moment. He posts the spiciest anti-Biden memes, I'm surprised he hasn't been article 15ed. 🤣
It isn’t a good thing. They’ll stick all whities at the front line and give the medals and promotions to the lame and gay.
That's the first thing that came to my mind.
They have been segregating you for decades, they have been indoctrinating your youth to kill your young in their womb, to become homosexuals and degenerates, to humiliate yourself and bend your knee, and now they want your strongest men to go and die in the other side of the world, again, while they let rapists and killers to enter your homeland so they can roam free to rape and kill your women and children.
This is a matter of pure survival, all europeans and all the whites in the american continent need to wake the fuck up, complete insanity.
The Saxon needs to learn again to hate.
It's important to hate the correct people.
There's no room left for straight White men you've clear been left behind.
You know I'm right, you know I'm right, you know I'm right.
Surprised that guy's music hasn't been completely scrubbed from youtube.
I really hope the newest generation doesn't fall for this shit.
A lot I know won't. I'm prime demographic for them, I won't.
Could be, given the recent Hamas-Israeli spat and the lack of progress on Ukraine.
Could also be recruitment and reserves are so far down they can't maintain the several hundred outposts where we squat our troops in various countries all over the world.
Oh there's plenty of progress in the Ukraine. Just not from the NATO side. The Russians took Avdeevka earlier this week, and the Ukro army is in shambles with many units even refusing to take the field anymore at all.
The propaganda lags behind the reality of the ground. Right now they're chattering about a stalemate. But that was August. The reality is that the AFU is being routed.
Turns out when you run a war entirely on propaganda and being the talking point for the entire world to give you sympathy and backup, you run the risk of losing being The Thing to another major event.
Yeah. No way russia will lose face. They are probably prepared to do this as long as it takes. Russia has been in tougher situations than this.. like mass starvation of tens of millions and tens million dying in wars.
I still think ukraine will be where the israeli will flee to if they lose. To start the Kharkian kingdom again. Thats the long term plan. We gonna give trillions to make sure israeli have a kingdom in ukraine.
It would be incredibly obvious if Russia actually got serious. They've just been using the war as a training exercise and excuse to modernize / propaganda on the home front. Taking a page out of the US playbook with a low intensity forever war.
Also a way to get rid of riff-raff they've built up over the years: top-heavy military bureaucracy, poorly maintained units, and prisoners. I guess that's one sort of modernizing.
They've been testing out their new Universal Combat Platform, as well as seeing how effective their decades old equipment is at certain tasks (using T-55's as mobile and hard artillery for example). Smart, with the US doing the same thing.
So using tannks to shoot shells at a high angle to hit further targets? Like a quasi artillery gun?
They are using them more as medium or close range hybrid infantry support/artillery with 100mm High Explosive shells. Unlike traditional artillery, which is a very soft target, these T-55s can maneuver into position with infantry and use their large guns to take out hard targets and lighter enemy vehicles. Plus, each T-55 has a heavy machine gun mounted for both air and ground defense. Overall it's an interesting strategy to use otherwise outdated vehicles, but I'm not sure how effective it will be.
Lose what?
I haven't been monitoring the situation, nor have I heard much on my feeds, so I just assumed things were stalled. Goes to show how well the Hamas-Israeli situation is distracting from everything.
Imagine watching the shambolic withdrawal of Afghanistan, only to go back into the fucking Middle East two years later.
IDK, but a carrier alone has like a 5000 person crew.
The dual citizen ship overlords need YOU (AGAIN), the hwyte americunt, to fight THEIR battles again under the pretense that it's somehow your duty and country on the line, bla bla some generic propaganda about your country and muh democracy.
Whatever happened to Emma and the two whores who raised her? Not good enough?
It's a random tweet, so take it for what it's worth, but this amused me.

"14 yo said the recruiters(all branches) were at college day at school today. They had water bottles, lanyards, pens etc. said no one went anywhere near their tables because they are “fake and ghey” according to the older boys. We are in central Texas. Prime recruiting territory."
Central Texas is where that leftist shithole Austin is, so I doubt it.
Looks like the usual suspects are a bit salty about people noticing this.

Too funny.
ettinger eh? he looks as much as i expected
Funny how when shit hits the fan, all the "diversity" nonsense goes RIGHT out the window.
why do you think i would fight for you?
Any white man who signs up to die for a country and society that hates him deserves the suffering that comes with that delusion.
Single scariest clip i've seen since the war in Israel started.
Here, they're brave and strong:

Entering the military as a caucasian is the definition of a dead end job. Not even making a pun here. As you spend your entire tenure getting passed over for promotions and handed shit tasks nonstop, you'll wonder if you'd have gone further in a career in retail or food service.
