This sentiment of 'I'm not going to fight' is funny until the war actually starts. And then it's either you fight early, or you fight late. Sometimes too late.
Nah. I'd legitimately rather kill myself than fight for my government.
Save a shell for me. ♥️✨
War sounds kinda fun tho (please don't look at my avatar)
Which one?
USA
Fair enough.
Will you turn into spaghetti?
Wasn't that amaricas strategy in the past 2 world wars. Like we basically just waited for everyone to wear echother down.
Until someone was like, check this MF out just sitting there, they're just waiting it out for everyone else to wear each other down!
Incidentally, this was Russia's plan, too. In fact, still is. We should really pounce on those fuckers while they're weak.
100% agree. The only thing that makes me feel better about a lot of the dumb tankie shit people say here is that I know most of them are under the age of 20.
I said dumb shit when I was young too. But I grew out of it. I’m hoping these kids do too.
Nah. I'm in my 30s. Fuck dying face down in the mud in a foreign country while protecting ruling class control over others. It's not a sign of maturity to claim fealty to a system that doesnt care if you live or die, so long as you make your landlord and boss richer.
lol… okay. No worries. When the time comes… others will do that for you so you can sit on your ass and complain about how bad everything is while doing nothing to change it.
Don’t bother responding. Blocked you like I have everyone else with shit attitudes similar to yours.
We’ll keep your Mrs happy
Doubtful, she doesn’t date children.
You thought to yourself, "now that's a zinger. You've done it again, Pratai of Bangalore, you son of a gun did it again!"
And the kid who said they’d “keep my Ms happy?” I’m assuming you responded in kind to them as well?
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
I thought you blocked me. Also, what?
Ok boomer.
I love it when you kids make it easy to know who has anything useful to say- and who to block from my feed.
Oh no. Anyways..
Then you became an enlightened centrist?
that's the main issue though, at least in the US, many citizens feel it would be better to have a complete clear of the entire country so they likely just wouldn't fight if invaded, the amount of anarchists and just anti-government folk have been gradually rising ever since the pandemic. It doesn't seem like health wise the country is doing well regardless of the economy status. It is super demoralizing seeing all the news platforms only focus on external wars or how the south is arguing over if it's legal to jail someone over abortion that happend outside of state line, meanwhile a good portion of folk despite having one of the lowest unemployment rates in years is still living barely paycheck by paycheck. Most feel there's just nothing they can do.
The USA probably has the most brainwashed people you could imagine, they'll find all the canon fodder they need for their next war
They don't go far enough, we need a complete global makeover. What was that about a Great Reset? Isn't that their idea? Because honestly it sounds pretty fucking good to me about now...
I figured I'd just fuck off out of here before shit goes down. In fact I have no idea why I'm even living in this shithole instead of a paradise island. It costs about 1/10th as much, is tropical, beautiful, and so poor nobody would ever think of invading it. I don't know about you but I can make that work.
Something tells me you're from the USA. There are other Western governments, and other places that are arguably better (as in, more comfortable/safe) to live in. Many people have dependents, or things to loose that they value over one's life.
So yeah, it may be an option for you but that beautiful tropical island won't fit millions upon millions of people living in the collective West.
I try not to go too public with where I'm from online, and use multiple accounts and contradict myself just to fuzzle the algorithms.
But I am actually from an (allegedly) very stable and very democratic nation. Allegedly.
Things change, sometimes rapidly, but I've seen the writing on the wall for at least two decades now, and honestly I feel like I'm running out of time.
Actually committed now and moving in a few months, permanently. There is nothing left here, and the future is bleak.
(and apropos, I am most certainly not moving to any Western country, or any particularly developed one in the slightest. I think the West is about to find itself in an absolute shitstorm, and soon, and I am NOT getting caught in that crossfire)
