Since Diaper Donnie is soon going to be rubbing his hands in glee to send Americans now into his meat grinder over wars he starts, how do you plan to avoid the draft?

I’m too old to join, thank god. Too old and too out of shape for them to bother caring. Plus a lot of psychological issues that will make me more likely shoot my superior that’s telling me I need to kill innocents to help king pedo succeed in his bullshit missions.

      Autist here, i refuse orders on principle, the only way people can get me to do anything is to have me decide that i agree on doing so.

      My expectations if i was ever forced in a military setting would be to get punished for Insubordination at a constant rate, i assume to get beaten, locked up, be given the extra shitty food (which i just wouldn’t eat).

      When it comes to being put under pressure i have a lifetime of experience. They can hurt, torture me all they want but will never rule over my independent thoughts.

      I am no hero, nor a vigilante but simply holding on to what i know is right is what gives me strengt. And while i expect coming out bruised, broken and traumatised it will stil not be close to the horrors my own mind will inflict on me for going against my nature.

      Whether I would actually shoot someone giving me orders, depends on the person, the context and the orders. But chances are they will already know i am more trouble then worth something to them and wont be handed a weapon.

        insubordination in time of war generally means court marshall and life in prision or execution under extreme circumstances.

        Its one thing to say you will do it and another to do it and accept the unknown but likely extremely bad repercussions.

          Its another thing to literally be so autistic that the extremely bad repercussions simply don’t matter.

          It wouldn’t really be a choice on my part. If society finds my existence so offensive they execute me for it thats a problem for their conscious not mine, i will die some day anyway and i am content to do so for not betraying what i know is right.

          Feels bad for my family though but being an example of making unethical compromises is worse.

      People in this comment thread seem to think it’s like one commanding officer in a room with them, so they do 1v1 combat like it’s a flipping video game.

      Isn’t it the logical thing to do?

      I mean, actually killing the innocent is out of the question. Shrug.

      So what are my options, what can I do?

      1. If I sit there and do nothing, that boss shoots me, and then he simply orders the next one to kill the innocent. No good option.

      2. If I kill myself, the same as above.

      3. Only if I kill that boss, then the source of the trouble is fixed. The only option to fix it.

      No, I am not in a position to try it out. Much too old and much too far away from Usa.

        This was about things to say in the interview at the draft board. What do you think will happen, if you say stuff like that?

            Bonus points if something huge happens while you’re saying that and the regime literally all dies before you finish saying that sentence.

              Oooh double meaning on sentence, I like it.

              It’d be like the reverse of that Futurama ‘war were declared’ scene :D

                “You’re going to jail and when you’re done you’re joining the battlefield anyway… unless war were undeclared.”

                (Phone rings and is picked up)

                (Indistinct speech)

                (Hangs up)

                “What was that?”

                “War were undeclared.”
