      He could've easily used the morally defensible one. But no, let's go with the war caused by imperialism and a messy tangled web of defence treaties.

        WW2 is more than just “defensible” for a majority of the allied fighters, it’s absolutely the right thing to happen :USSR:

      The implosion of western colonial hegemony in the most idiotic manner possible?

    WW1: You're drafted to defend JP Morgan's interests, get sent to France and die of trenchfoot because the quartermaster "thinks Papists should just pray to their fancyboy in Rome if they want socks".

    The fact that so many people wanted to fight the first world war was a problem, actually

      Especially what the European socialist parties did by supporting the war. One of the worst things ever.

        This (well the internal party structures which lead to the war credits in 1914 and the break of the international, which showed its faces in the 1890s) was one of the biggest problems of history for free societies.

      Also really gotta love the built in assumption that, if that were true, it would be a bad thing.

      I am honestly not sure about that. People REALLY resisted WW1 here, and in Europe the younger generation was prepared from a young age to want to die to prove themselves, which is why boy scouts was created for instance. Even then there was this serious dissonance which came to a head when those more liberalized boys got sent to the trenches cause their grandpas wanted them to die so his dick could get hard again after having not fought in a conventional war himself, and ended up being faced with death and having to kill.

    Changing your gender to avoid getting drafted to fight in hellish post-nuclear wastelands is praxis, actually

    God these people aren't even good at trans jokes. Like i know exactly what my gender is, it's the fucking chuds that are confused. Like trans people are the first ones to fucking dunk on gender!

      It turns out jokes about gender are actually pretty good if you’re making them from a queer perspective.

    World War 1: this reactionary treat pig sits on their ass and yeehaws whatever the maximum death drive option is

    World War 3: this reactionary treat pig sits on their ass and yeehaws whatever the maximum death drive option is

    Any social issue until it's the supply of their treats: this reactionary treat pig sits on their ass and yeehaws whatever the maximum death drive option is

    I mean, the obvious imperialist solution to that would just be to draft everyone regardless of gender...

      I'm still working though the idea, but I think I currently unironically support a universal, mandatory draft. ANYONE age 18-65 can be drafted, NO exceptions. It's more fair than the de facto poor draft we have today, and I think people would view war a lot differently if there's a chance they'd have to serve.
