I had a messed up childhood and did nothing with my life. I'm the stereotypical old codger with advice, and I don't mind sharing my life with others if I can help some along the way. 20 years ago I would advise young people to Go to College, Military, or Trade school. Now I just recommend trade school.
Over the years I have learned that most people don't care about what I have to say, and some wish I'd shut up, but there is a few that I can tell felt a connection with what I talked with them about.
We have unwittingly been the cudgel of the Cabal for many years. Who knows where that became fact. WW2 Germany and Japan were pushed to the wall. Germany had the Weimar Republic beating them down, and Japan faced sanctions and blockades. We will never know the full truth of that war.
We need to mind our own business and quit being proxy for the Cabal.
I always wondered why Tom Hanks and other cabal types made such patriotic movies about war heroes. Now when I see the sacrifice so many have made it makes me sad of course as it always has, but also beyond sick to my stomach. Even watching It's a Wonderful Life. "On V Day they wept and prayed, on VJ Day they wept and prayed." To think that so many have died for the interests of so few.
They want us to buy into the idea that it is a noble sacrifice. From the perspective of the men and women that fight, it is. But they are being duped, as are their loved ones, as at some point we all were. I really have come to believe that all wars are bankers' wars. We are nothing but pawns to them. Not even. We are like bugs or ants under their magnifying glass. Here for their amusement. Sheep no more.
War is gruesome and it affects everyone who is exposed to it. Just watching the video of Nick Berg beheaded was hard to watch, but that made the hanging of Saddam Hussein an easier watch. Negotiation of conflicts is the way...
As a retired veteran who joined the navy and did a long career, finished in 2004, who has two children one jarhead and the other 8 years in the army with a few to go amd waiting with baited breath to get out. They stifled her career when she refused the jab. She has a highly technical job and the Army Reserves kept her. I agree wholeheartedly. I would not have encouraged it knowing and feeling how I do right now about it all.
Sad commentary, but we now know almost everything we have been told is a lie. For that alone, those promoting the lies should face the death penalty. The escalation of destruction of our country with illegal entries, crime condoned, corruption of most of our government officials at all levels, the corrupt banking, education, and health system, does not bode well for the future of the U.S. and the world. Our military will never be able to recover from the woke leaders and the forced mandates.
First, and most importantly -- thank you for your service, and thank your children for theirs, to defending our country.
Second, I have a son who is an Army captain, and can't wait to get out in another year or two. He got his undergrad degree in mid 2010s THEN decided he wanted to go into the Army. I work in the defense sector...so I saw first hand the damage that Black Jesus did by eviscerating the upper echelon of accomplished military officers who actually cared for leading and training our armed forces, and replacing them with DEI&A obsessed smoothbrains, and I knew that would trickle down (or be forced down) into the ranks pretty quickly. And it was.
I knew all of this would eventually disappoint my son in his Army career, and it most certainly did...of course, I can't bring any of it up because it comes out as "I told you so" but I don't mean it that way.
30 years ago, I would give you a great argument on how you are wrong. today, you are absolutely correct. i find myself thinking, "what would Pat Tillman say about this administration?" then i realize again why you should not join this man's army.
You might have had a great argument 30 years ago, but that would have been only because we didnt know the full truth then. Army has always been a private enforcer for the Bankster families, to help them keep their financial scams going.
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2008/jun/02/ussport Unfortunately for the Bush administration, Tillman possessed other character traits that were soon to prove an embarrassment. He was an atheist, a liberal and a thinker. He also had an insatiable appetite for knowledge and a good nose for the truth. He quickly realised that the invasion of Iraq was a criminal act based on lies. "This war is so fucking illegal!" he told a friend while in Iraq in 2003.
I feel the exact same way. I did 10 in the Air Force. When my daughters grew old enough I couldn't recommend that they do the same.
I will say though that there may still be time to serve in the Space Force since Trump started them. They weren't around during Obama so they weren't wokified. They appear to have a mission that is actually for the USA (and possibly the world?), so there is stil hope with them.
I wanted to go to the army Walter Reed nursing program back in the late 1960’s, but my father, who had served in the army, forbade it. He said he knew what the army was like, and back then you listened to your parents. Looking back, I wish my parents were still alive, so I could tell them how smart they were and how ahead of their times with things they knew and saw. But many children think they are smarter than their parents, especially today. Your words are spot on! Those at the top, have no care or concern for those who serve. Most wars are all about money and control and the serving men and women who are maimed or lose their lives are beneath their notice. It makes me sick: the conditions our servicemen and their families live in on base, the low pay, having to fight the VA for services, the lack of mental health care, the suicide rate of our military and living on the street, while our government sends billions to foreign countries. We can go in debt to send money and equipment to foreign lands, but turn a blind eye to those who have served. I think the time has come to defund the VA. Instead let our military use whatever health care they choose, whatever insurance, whatever doctor with zero copayments. The VA should exist only as a records keeper and to point our military in the direction of where they might receive specialized care for their injuries. Convert all VA hospitals to hospitals open to all and hold them accountable to the same standards. We know the entire health care system is messed up and needs a full over haul too.
The children-are-smarter-than-their-parents myth is a communist insertion into our government indoctrination daycare centers combined with programming in media. Think back on how tell-a-vision and hollyweird incessantly promoted that, every show, for years. Then recall government school degrading religious beliefs and presenting all past as primitive or ignorant. It's a purposely crafted attitude, because telling someone how smart they are actually opens then up to suggestion- you're super smart and this is what smart people believe. (Not think, mind you- BELIEVE)
This might actually be why the govt under everyone else but Trump just let the VA get worse and worse. I never thought about it until I read your idea, but it makes complete sense now. If the govt destroys the VA they could absolutely turn all of the hospitals into civilian hospitals for a new govt healthcare. Then they could finish what they started with obamacare - force everyone to be on govt healthcare with zero choices and death panels. Far-fetched? Who knows...
My grandfather was a Marine in the Pacific for the second [war]. I asked him what he thought about me enlisting and he encouraged me to do what I thought I should do but he also said he wouldn't do it again and it's not what people think it is. I wasn't sure what all that meant but it probably kept me from dieing on foreign soil in a desert somewhere.
It’s tough. I’m 58 and was in the Navy 85-05. I love my country and think she needs defending. But the last few years, boy, I would not want to be in.
I went on vacation in early December and one of our stops was Flanders Fields American cemetery in Belgium. Heartbreaking.
A frequent refrain from me is, ‘America is killing itself.’
Do you think the reserves would be commanded to control UK citizens who protest, let's say hypothetically, lockdowns or illegal immigrant violence against women?
I actually agree with you on this, I think we need good patriotic people in all categories of life. I think the struggle most people commenting on here is that the corruption is so deep, it’s easier to disconnect than to take it over again. Unsure of what the best action is going forward, but I’m not against police, military, or every existence of government jobs. We need to remove corruption 1st, then remove the ability for corruption to take over again 2nd.
Trying to find a hydra head that will sever all heads before severing its own head, good luck… 🤦♂️ God help us.
I think the struggle most people commenting on here is that the corruption is so deep, it’s easier to disconnect than to take it over again.
You know what they say: Evil prevails when good men does nothing.
Also, evil prevails when the good men just run away like cowards.
We got into this mess because we keep on running away and fragment when evil shows its wicked face. The consistant symbol of our Q/MAGA movement, aside the letter Q and Trump, is a lion. But how could we live up to that symbol if we continually run away?
Drones aside, there would not be the best and brightest young people going into the meat grinders. But you're right, since the elite would still create wars, young talented people should totally enlist and sign their complete personal physical autonomy away.
They feed you, house you, and clothe you; this is why sailors make 25k a year, and spend 25k a year on useless or excessive things.
The true underpayment is that you are on call 24/7 for that price, and under many circumstances, they abuse that ability. While working ~100 hour work weeks. You should make ~100k (with benefits) but really make ~60-70k (with benefits).
If you get housing and food they don’t pay you extra but if you live in town you get extra tax free pay 300-400 for food per month and 2,000 ish for housing, depends on rank, dependents, and location.
If the military ever would wake the fuck up and know our government kills it own people every fucking day and they killed all our people on 9-11 it’s just facts but then they would just say IM JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS gimme a fucking break your part of the problem
Nobody that can afford a glock/ ammo let alone rent is going to join the military. If you're poor and conservative you join the military and if you're poor and liberal you join welfare/ state assistance. The globalist machine sends the military to expand socialism elsewhere and pretends it's democracy they're protecting; they don't care how many kids go trans and they protect their voters, they don't care how many poor Republicans go die in war installing their regime.
It's a social cancer aimed towards accomplishment of their agenda and everyone gets stuck paying for it one way or the other.
Imagine what happens when Trump is back in charge and has the military only defending the U.S., as it says in the Constitution. A whole new ballgame with recruitment.
I just heard on AM talk radio today: "Hi, I'm a first time caller, I've got five honorable discharges, and I would like to offer my opinion on ..." Five? Is that even possible? Maybe I should have stood at attention...

A sidearm is only there so you can make your way to your rifle.
True for some, but my sidearm is there because I can't conceal a rifle and carry that everywhere.
Do you think the reserves would be commanded to control UK citizens who protest, let's say hypothetically, lockdowns or illegal immigrant violence against women?
Yes, if we have no armed forces, then there'll be no war
Why didn't anyone think of this sooner

The wage they pay isnt enough to survive.Starts out under 25k a year.

i agree 100%.
do NOT join a FEDERALIZED MILITARY.
it will be the job of the FEDERALIZED MILITARY to go to war AGAINST American Patriots.
It will be up to the Patriots, just as it has always been, to protect our freedoms & of those who are either to blind or scared to themselves.
Our government has been taken over & is being held hostage. The same ones who are responsible, are the same ones in CONTROL of the FEDERAL MILITARIES.
FEDERAL militaries fight on behalf of the private controllers, NOT the country & certainly not the PEOPLE of the country.
If the military ever would wake the fuck up and know our government kills it own people every fucking day and they killed all our people on 9-11 it’s just facts but then they would just say IM JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS gimme a fucking break your part of the problem
What about a local militia? Wasn’t that the way in the beginning? Or would they be considered insurrectionists?
I would counter that you couldn't go wrong with most double-stack Glocks, but otherwise, take my updoot, Fren...
