Military recruiting crisis?

[EndtheMadnessNow]

So do you Rogues think that the military of The USA is weaker today than what it used to be.? Or stronger, but maybe not even close to the strength it could be, in optimal conditions (No wokes, No recruiting problems, great VA?)

I would really like a strong American military. Our countries could be allies soon. I hope that happens, but it is not my call. It is the call of a Turkish dictator.

I exited the Navy shortly after Clinton granted women on combat ships. I was about to re-enlist, but thank my lucky stars for getting out. A few of my buddies had stayed in and within 2 years were slaughtered due to saying the wrong words. Post 9/11 really did a number on the younger generation and their kids into a weakened, childish snowflake society high on emotional fear, confusion, hopelessness & social media rage. AND now woke roaring 20's appears to be devastating. I know there is youngsters that see right through the woke crowd, but they're overwhelmed by them. This culture war will eventually pass, but it's going to be awhile.

Can hardly wait toward the end of this decade when I think the pendulum will swing the other way. We're either going to start seeing alot of secret highly advanced formidable weaponry being rolled out, or a whole lotta marketing fluff that's been sold to the Pentagon generals & congress that doesn't work very well in the real world.

"You would think intelligence would count for something in the intelligence business. But, do you want to know what it really is? What really sets the agenda? Military-industrial happiness.

You keep the coffers open in Congress, you keep the money flowing to the contractors."
