"Go fight and die for a country that hates you" my cousin said that was his military experience.

I have 4 comforts. 1. Im a disabled vet so i can't be drafted 2. I live in nature with solar and a few offgrid supplies, so i am more likely to die starving than city riots 3. I am equipped to end my life quickly & painlessly if necessary 4. I tried my best in political/historical research/dissemination with activism, so I won't carry guilt Outside of that, prosperity or even survival are mostly a matter of luck I hope I find the love of my life before it ends, though I'm not sure how much time i have to be picky

I'm not fighting in ANY war, no matter what. I'll never kill if I have any choice in the matter, and I'll defnitely not be forced to do it by some elitist prick who want me and my fellow working-class to die for the sake of their confort and ego.

It amazes me that the general population are willing to die for the powerful few who never risk their lives yet start the conflicts. They'll be in a bunker while you are dying for the conflicts they started by their policies often over resources and posturing. The majority of the world just want to live and peace with their basic needs met, until propaganda and aggressive policies of their overlords convince them that those people "over there" are threatening their way of life.

I'm not fighting for the elites that hate me.

you are not fighting for your country you are fighting for people who invested in amry manufacturing

My country is the world. I don't want to fight my brothers and sisters

If it’s for those I care about, absolutely I’ll put my life down for them. But for a bunch of corrupt, selfish a holes that say “we will own nothing and will be happy” who I don’t even know exist? Never.

Mate fuck that I ain’t dying for a government who doesn’t care about me

The more important thing is what each of us is doing to prevent it from happening.

Inside my head and heart, I've been in WW3. Ever since people got the internet in their phone, everyone became a Zombie. The world is already dead and fighting in every home, school, mall, hockey game, etc

Its always the public who suffer and not the Government or leaders....This shit sucks

I avoided the 1960s draft by enlisting in the U. S. Navy for 6 years. At 70, I ain't getting drafted now and I feel I have already served my Country well. Please have respect for our Vets.....no matter how you may feel about the USA today.

Imagine fighting for a country that doesn't care about you, and living paycheck to paycheck 😂

People live in their sheltered minds and can’t understand the possibility of losing what you consider to be the norm.

No one wins from a war except the weapons industrial complex 😮

A lot are not understanding they're actually fighting for their loves ones and fellow man just as much as they're fighting for their country. Fighting for your country is much more than being willing to sacrifice your life for your Government. If an external and existential threat is imminent from another country, it would be dishonorable and cowardly to not resist the attacks potentially responsible for the demise of everything and everyone you love.

Already picked up a rifle for the country and don’t plan on rushing into one and those that chant for a war are those that would be first to run when faced with the opportunity in my opinion. I always hear “I was gonna join but…” I’ll say no one but the top profits everyone at the bottom suffers hence the lyric “I ain’t no senators son”

I think we may be obligated to fight if your country or an ally is attacked. But I live in Poland, and from this perspective what Russia is doing is pretty scary.

I’m not fighting 💀

Is it willing to die? Or is it willing to kill? Dying is easy. But, for who, and for what are you told to kill being a armed server. Might be a good idea to start thinking about making your own country of you wherever you are

I’m not fighting Joe’s war

I will refuse to comply with a military draft and I will refuse to fight in a civil war. I have nothing to gain from participating in a conflict. I do not owe my country anything, because I do not identify as a U.S citizen anymore. I think this culture and general public are not worth fighting and dying for. I would proudly go to prison over serving in a draft.

Am I going to end up on a Government watchlist by viewing or commenting on this video? Well, it's too late now...

For more than 90% of human history there is no archeological evidence for war. This only started showing up with the rise of agriculture. Even after agriculture was invented, many densely populated societies (like the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture in Eastern Europe) lived in egalitarian and peaceful cities. Even in modern times (even today) many societies like the Maori of Aboriginal Australians engaged in warfare without any concept of "armies" or "conquest". I hope people realize that war is not "inherent to human nature" or anything like that. War is a historical anomaly.

I will protect the America soil if any invader attack's....But as far as going into another country..OR SEND UNGODLY AMOUNTS OF MONEY TO IT.....I wouldn't go

Great insights and gave me a sense of peace

I'm 25, raised in what is now known as the most dangerous and most poverty stricken area of the UK, Teesside. For all of my childhood as long as I can remember I always wanted to join the a marines or at least some branch of the forces, I'd say this peaked at age 10 until around 13, however growing up through my teenage years under what is widely regarded as the worst government in modern UK history, even far worse than Thatcher's, having every possible means of living decently stripped from my hardworking, caring mother who had to relocate homes due to the Tory bedroom tax, 0 hour contracts, appalling living wages, and that's not even covering the last 8 years since the genius idea that was Brexit came into conversation, we suffered greatly, I was in and out of counselling, my mam put on anti-depressants, and left with barely £80 left at the end of each month... I wouldn't dream of going to war for these posh, greasy charlatan freaks, and more fool them. We've suffered enough without me being pulled into fight a war. This country has reaped what it has sowed, and will continue to do so for the next half a decade at the least, while anyone but the Tories attempts to recover it. Petition to send every tory backbencher and all 5 prime ministers in the last 10 years to war with no guarantee home. I love this country, and am full of pride (For the hard working people), that doesn't mean I'm not embarrassed, ashamed and sickened by the people who run it, they don't represent us, and if you are from a rough area like I am, and vote Tories, you are as much of an enemy to me as they are. You are simply dense and lack common sense. This country is beyond embarrassing and the Tories are deluded if they think the young men who've suffered immensely, thanks to their greed, would dare give themselves up and be conscripted. What a massive joke. GE 24.

Imagine fighting for a '"country" which is literally just lines drawn on a map. It made sense in previous eras because there was actually something worth fighting for like religion or your tribe. In 2024 you're fighting for globalism and big banks 😂😂

Well said. I agree with you.

keep going best regards from algeria

This is an AWESOME video for today's days day....KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!!😊

Finally some new content 🎉❤

I’d fight not because I like this country, but because our reality would drastically change for the worse if we loose

I aint going

I ain’t fighting for a country that doesn’t give a flying fu*k about me

I will unalive myself before I unalive anyone else

Depends on the threat.

I have three words. The fallout series. A game series i know and love, and that tackles the aftermath. Now, go on

I am here for all the lonely navy wives

Conscious global citizens!🙌

Men have the right to protect their lives .. consceiption is a crime

Let the world destroy itself as it will anyways, lol.

I'd love to hear your take on veganism.

You have the most consistent videos on the platform Ear candy

How would I fight for a piece of earth? I could fight for my government but why? I should fight for my nation's people but would they for me? No I'll keep working towards immortality if I must fight for it sure then. God bless.

My country? Yes. My politicians? No.

this is now eerie

I would never fight for my country but rather for my people and nation

I was in the Canadian Army and I went to fight in Afghanistan because of what happened on 9/11 (to another country). It's less about fighting for your country and more about fighting for your way of life. I don't see too many Americans, Canadians or Europeans scrambling to emigrate to Russia, which tells me none of us find the idea of living under that regime too appetizing. If push comes to shove, there are plenty of us willing to take up arms to keep that scenario from ever coming to pass, not just for ourselves but for our loved ones and for you too.

It doesn't matter if you want it or not, what matters is if your country can force a draft or not

As a Filipino, defense of state is right to do as the Philippines depends on the maritime trade. However, outside the defense, it is problematic.

I’m an American male, my biological clock yearns to fight on a European battlefield. No jk jk. I’m a recent veteran where we weren’t really sending many regular forces over to the Middle East, and I saw what those wars did to my mentors. If I were to fight again I’d only really go if the US was invaded. I would fight to protect my homeland and way of life. However, India vs China flares up or Iran wants to fuck around in the Middle East? I don’t care, can’t call me up anymore I’m done with my inactive reserves time lmao

We have fighting each other for centuries in the name of “Nation”, and we still are. We have claimed victory over each other several times by just one thing, one weapon most powerful of all and that is the strength that come with unity, Allies defeated Nazi regime not America nor Britain nor USSR but Allies together united against one common enemy, having witnessed the power that comes from the unity of human beings we have overcome the great threats throughout the history. And yet we fail to realize that our destiny, the Mankind’s destiny is to walk together as we have through centuries in tribes, kingdoms, nations. Now it’s time we walk together towards the better future not as nations but as a human civilization and conquer not each other but over the threats within, we fight against poverty, hunger, diseases, and grow outward conquering the universe.

For everyone in comments who say : I will not fight for government who doesn’t care about me there are hundreds of dudes who will fight just to watch world burn….

I don't even have a country per say. What is my country? The country my race is majority in but I've not ever lived in. Or is it the country I currently live in, where I'm always an immigrant. I would rather fight for survival

By reading the comments it seems to me like I'm in the minority in this discussion. The way I see it, it's not about (or at the very least not all about) people prying on others to fight for their benefits (whether that's financial or power). Sure, some people gain a lot of money or rise/maintain power and use war as a tool for their own good but the question I ask myself is who are we fighting? Maybe your country doesn't have good healthcare and education but perhaps the alternative (the enemy you're fighting) is far worse and that's worth fighting for. I live in a western country and our enemies hold completely different belief systems. I argue living under a dictatorship or an extreme muslim religious regime is objectively worse and if those powers threaten your way of life then it's justified to fight for your country for it even if it means some people gain power from the war and it doesn't make it any less just.

gladly. not for my leaders... but for my family, and friends.

I’d fight, not for my country but just fuck it, fuck the whole thing but man what can you really do if it comes down to it and whatever anyway

When the great Tao is forgotten, goodness and piety appear. When the body's intelligence declines, cleverness and knowledge step forth. When there is no peace in the family, filial piety begins. When the country falls into chaos, patriotism is born. Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching

WW3 was basically the whole year 2020, tbh in that sense, lol.

War will always be stupid to me . Love peace and harmony my friends ❤😊

Hell yeah im game

Nothing to be proud of or for a sane person to want to do in the first place. Everything is not permanent, and I still have no desire. I'll continue to see life as a Buddhist . Let them fight themselves.

as a Marine Corp Vet I would not join this worthless fight. In the suck fighting for your lives and freezing your balls off, while the ones responsible for this war are getting rich and eating steaks every night in their mansions

no one will simply fight for their country just cause their leaders say so. for example if your country is the aggressor and starts a war with another country people won't be as willing to join the military voluntarily or otherwise, the vietnam war is a good example of this. whereas if your country was being attacked and the other country is the one that started the conflict then you would be more willing to fight for it.

I honestly have a hard time believing we’d slip into another global conflict.

It all depends but most likly

I took an interest in China and learned too much about the history of the US, my own country. If world war 3 starts, it'll be our fault. How could one morally defend a hypocritical bully? And no, I wasn't brainwashed. I learned factual information about the decisions we made, the actions we took, and our failure to make things right. The US does horrible things to defend and spread our specific cultural values, economic system, and style of government. To defend freedom, we remove the freedom of others to differ. But if the ends don't justify the means, and the means are atrocity, what does that make us?

What does the nation/state paradigm mean in the case of empire? How does one "love" a country when its interests are not in its citizens, but rather in domination of the entire world, economically and in nearly any other sense.

great video

7:12 Me. MAGA baby

If any country get invaded by ground forces you have to resist and fight. That is fighting for your country.

title should be "economics of fighting for your country"

What makes you think insects will face the same fate?

There's no ethics to doing a fictional state's bidding

If ukraine boils over into a larger conflict, im avoiding the draft. I am not interested in dying for a foreign conflict that really has nothing to do with us. Same with israel.

Wow

🙏

Never fight someone else’s war

I don't have a country. Rich elites do. Would I fight for them? Fuck, no. Stop identifying with the State & get a grip, people.

I won't do anything for a country that's run by criminals

We are humans we dont need a war

After learning basic war knowledge from ww1 onwards,and after the red scare everybody thinks the next war will be nuclear.but I think it’s going to be rather political and technological because we are sitting on the face of it right now and it’s bound to happen because of so much tension since then

I wouldn't fight for this country even if we were invaded when the Invaders get to my town that's when I'll fight but for this country hell no

No way bruh! I was just watching a comedy video about getting drafted to thearmy for World War III😮😢 Algorithm do be stalking me...

Soldiers fight for freedom

they dont fight for us

If I'd fight for my country i would be a candidate to solve all that garbage here

They won't take me 😢

What about a war for peace 🤔

I mean if my country is invaded fuck yeah I will. I fucking live here lol

share this video to all your friends !!!

👍

The people that have been told who their enemies are will fight, the people that KNOW who their enemies are wont.

WW3 and ethics🤣

2024 would be a bleakest year ever..

Bro talked in circles the entire video

That entirely depends on the nature of the conflict and the nations involved. Everything isn’t so black and white like it seemed in WW2.
