@basedbagel I recall a shill on 4chan (pics related) going on about how men should be fighting for their families and country.
What families? Many young men are not able to get a willing and marriageable woman, so they have a lot less stake in society. And if you have no family to care for, you probably also will not have strong feelings for your country either. Especially not when the government of that country shows nothing but contempt for the young men.
@WashedOutGundamPilot @basedbagel I saved them from your posts. I just selected a few that were relevant to my point. The whole exchange was indeed great, and it shows how the very people who the system needs to be willing and able to fight are not going to be so willing.
@houseoftolstoy @basedbagel That's the most interesting part: 4chan is supposed to be the thunderdome, filled with idiots and shills....the fact they can't even get a chorus for recruitment going bodes extremely poor for their aims going forward.
I don't think there's anything they can do to quickly flip things around, either. Pearl harbor would just get laugh reacts & memes in 2025
