Girl Fireman Rushes Into Burning Building To Tell Victim He's Too Heavy But The Real Firemen Will Be Here In 15 Minutes

[JoeB131]

Gen Z is far from monolithic

There are queers, and also manly men

Cat Ladies, and women who marry and have children

Pajama Boys, and real men who want to serve their country while seeing the world

Except they aren't signing up, are they? Not because they are "pajama boys", but because it's frankly not worth it at this point.

Here's the problem with Gen Z. We were at war when they were born, and we've been at war most of their lives. Why would they sign up for THAT?

They are not signing up for the reason I already gave you

The woke military is a turn off for the sort of men we need to fight our wars

Or do some research.

America isn’t ready for another war — because it doesn’t have the troops

The US military’s recruiting crisis, explained.

www.vox.com

Army surveys of Americans aged 16 to 28 conducted in 2022 revealed that the top two reasons this cohort wouldn’t consider serving were fear of death and concerns about post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Furthermore, most Americans wouldn't encourage young people to join the military.

Most Americans Would Discourage Young People from Joining Military as Enlisted Service Members, Report Says

The study found that 54.4% of respondents would dissuade a 17-year-old from joining the military as an enlisted service member, though nearly two-thirds would encourage them to go the officer route.

Most Americans would discourage a young person close to them from enlisting in the military, but a wide majority would encourage them to join as an officer, according to a new Rand Corp. study published this week.

The study found that 54.4% of respondents would dissuade a 17-year-old relative from joining the military as an enlisted service member, though nearly two-thirds of Americans would encourage them to go the officer route, either through a service academy or the Reserve Officer Training Corps, also known as ROTC.

Of course, it doesn't help that 77% of young people can't qualify for the military.

77% of youth cannot qualify for military service, non-profit "Mission: Readiness" aims to help - ABC Columbia

"It's a challenge today and if this trend continues, what we're going to have in the future generations of an all volunteer force -- is no force," says Former South Carolina Secretary of Veterans' Affairs, Will Grimsley.

According to an organization called Mission: Readiness, 77% of American youth between the ages of 17 and 24 cannot qualify for any branch of military service, but through their physical and cognitive programs, the non-profit is hoping to change that across the country, and here in South Carolina.

But, no, no, it's because of those damned gay people, because Mac is insecure about gay people.

Army sees safety, not 'wokeness,' as top recruiting obstacle

The Army is trying to recover from its worst recruiting year in decades, and officials say those recruiting woes are the result of traditional hurdles.

apnews.com

Officials said that based on the surveys, young people simply do not see the Army as a safe place or good career path, and believe they would have to put their lives and careers on hold if they enlisted.

Army leaders said very few say they are deterred from enlisting due to “wokeness.” In fact, concerns about discrimination against women and minorities is seen as a bigger issue, along with a more general distrust of the military.

“Wokeness” is a slang term that originally described attentiveness to issues of racial and social justice. Some people and groups, especially conservatives, now use it in a derogatory sense implying what they see as overreactions.

But the Army says that on average, only 5% of the respondents in the surveys listed “wokeness” as an issue, compared with 13% who say they believe that women and minorities will face discrimination and not get the same opportunities.

What the survey tells me is that your generation is against military service and that is influencing their children

Whether the woke military admits it or not the woke culture in the current military is a turnoff for the most likely military candidates

As for young people not being physically fit that shortcoming can be worked off of them in less than a year

 

[JoeB131]

So much stupid... so much.

What the survey tells me is that your generation is against military service and that is influencing their children

Which generation do you think I am from? (I'm actually from the tail end of the Baby Boom.)

You think that parents need to tell kids that death, debilitating injury, and PTSD are downsides?

Or is it more likely that they are seeing an endless war as a turnoff.

Whether the woke military admits it or not the woke culture in the current military is a turnoff for the most likely military candidates

except only five percent of those who don't join cite "woke" as the reason.

As for young people not being physically fit that shortcoming can be worked off of them in less than a year

Why invest a whole year into someone? When I went through, basic training was 8 weeks and AIT was 8 weeks for my MOS. I guess Boot Camp is now up to 10 weeks. Why would the Army invest a whole 52 weeks getting someone up to snuff?

The Babylon Bee... stridently not being funny since 2010.

Not for easily triggered, humorless liberal useful idiots, at least.

25% of female service members report being subjected to sexual harassment.

How do you know they’re female?

Past generations used to tell their sons about freedom not being free

But in lib la la land everyone wants to know “whats in it for me?”

Even the traditional heterosexual conservative males that the military relies on

You have pushed the woke military to the breaking point

Past generations needed to be conscripted.

I'll be blunt. When I signed up in 1981. my first thought was "what's in it for me." In my case, it was paying for college. But I had a little talent and stayed longer than that after the college was paid for.

What you call "woke", I call making it welcoming to women and minorities.

The problem is, the white, heterosexual, conservative male isn't signing up because he has the privilege to do other things.

If we have the draft whites will be conscripted along with everyone else

But after drafting straight white males dont make them accept the perverted homosexual lifestyle as a condition of service

The OP put this in Satire but it is the truth!

It's disgusting...those creatures will never be able to save anybody from a burning site!

They can hardly walk by themselves.....Jezzzzzzzzz

Fuck DEI for an Eternity!

Why not?

If someone showed up with Klan tattoos in the service, they'd have a talk with that guy.

Same with the homophobic soldier.

A draft isn't going to happen. So do we gear the military to the 30% of the population who are white males who won't ever show up, or the 70% of the population who are female, minority, or LBGTQ who might to gain an experience?

What you call “homophobic” is just a natural reaction of normal people to blatant sexual perversion

Guy, Gen Z doesn't have your homophobic view on life.

If the military was recruiting 50 year olds, you might have a point.

But most kids these days have a very open view about LGBTQ.

Nice graph on how propaganda affects youths more than older adults.

Actually, no. Homophobia has to be learned.

It's why anyone under the age of thirty will give you a dirty look if you say "F@990t" out loud.

Or that younger people just aren't as hung up about it as older people are.

You mean they are being taught to not be bigots?

Good for them.

The bigotry of our generation will be looked back at with the same disdain people today look back at segregation.
