bro how do you make coffee after you fought to the death
set a timer on the coffee machine, easy
I’ve got an idea, let’s find this Nicholas Drummond fellow, and
Of course he’s a former br*tish officer. What’re the odds he was some sort of supply officer or other rear echelon support crew? It’s always the ones furthest from combat that are the most supportive.
Then again even if he was in a “combat” unit his combat experience would most likely be riding around in an mrap or heli, shooting some people that he claimed were armed, and heading back to base for boiled hunk of beef.
Also if they hold their positions to the death they won’t be doing fucking anything afterwards, because they’ll be facedown in the mud, dead so you can write how the brave slava Ukraini fought to the last from your comfortable London office. Put your money where your mouth is, pick up an ak, and hold that shell hole to the death you ghoul
Dude in one of these pictures looking over at an 18 year old standing next to them
These men are survivors, meaning they’ll frag their commander the moment he orders them to their deaths and surrender over the radio
An army consisting of 17 year olds and 68 year olds.
This will fix issues with unemployed youth and wasting money on elder care. A great neoliberal solution.
No-man’s-land for Old Men :kelly:
Tell some lib that a Chinese government official said this and watch their outrage
Human waves
Human…stagnant ponds?as someone in their mid 40s, there’s a reason they target 15+ for recruitment. 30 years ago I bought in to all that bullshit.
if I was drafted today to fight an unwinnable war for the rich, you’re damn right I’m playing it cool until I can get a grenade in the same tent or vehicle as a bunch of flag officers.
That’s been an idea I’ve had for a long time but never really confirmed it, that main part of recruiting younger people. My uncle got drafted to go to Vietnam after he was already 30 and he despised it. I’ve only known two types of veterans: people who knew from birth they wanted to be a soldier, and older people who did it simply as a job or family pressure. That first group I’ve known have all ended up racist chuds, the second group all hate war now or they simply don’t talk about it.
Younger people are consistently the most bright eyed and willing to believe liars. They assume the best of everything, they assume everything is good-faith until proven otherwise. You don’t just see this with military but with younger people supporting liberals in europe as well, they believe their bullshit as long as it’s presented in an astute and professional-ish way like they’re used to from their academic setting.
Those reaching late thirties and early forties get over the bright-eyed shit through life experience. They’ve seen how much lying there is.
Also I think young people often lack the life experiences to start thinking outside the dominant ideology. I remember being a teen and believing everything pop history told me about communism even if I had a very strong anti-establishment biais and already hated capitalism. It took meeting with maoists during uni to start questioning bourgeois myths
This is true but a lot of people carry this way into even their late twenties. I see younger people getting abused in the workplace the most because they’re often naive, believe bosses who are stringing them along and don’t realise how much they’re getting fucked. They’re poor advocates for themselves who often believe just working hard is enough… To their own detriment.
Can some military person tell me if their helmets are supposed to look like they don’t fit? Or are they so strapped for supplies they don’t have properly fitting helmets
They are supposed to look like this, since they are made in one size, they look out of place on thin older men though.
I was mostly looking at the dude on the left who looks like a Spaceballs extra
The Russians call him the Killer of Khmelnytskyi and speak of him only in whispers
It’s the same helmet, dude’s just small.
Wonder how many different heads those helmets have sat on in the last 2 1/2 years
Old men can’t run away quickly
No but they can surrender fast
Westerners are way too proud of their view of life as disposable.
The average?
Bro…that’s not good
Of course he of all people would say this, but come on
Defense industry ghoul watches poor old men being fed to the very war machine he “analyzes” and “consults”
And he paints it as a “good thing”
Also from terf island
Everybody’s a tough guy when they’re sending someone else to be murdered on their behalf.
