The Government would like to remind you that they can send your only born son off to die

in a distant land. You should have no hope of your lineage continuing.
This may be the most dystopian thing I've seen all year.

There will never be another draft in this country’s history

Thought for sure that had to be fake. It is not. Wow.

The ad seems straightforward and fairly innocuous. The draft has been around for a while. Seems perfectly predictable that some people may think that their child is an exception for some reason when they are not. Besides, who follows the Selective Service on Twitter anyway? Posting this there seems to be the biggest headscratcher about it.

I waiver on this issue. Nothing is more dangerous to liberty than forced conscription, but you better believe folks would be less likely to support America policing the world if their kids were going to be drafted and sent abroad. Neocon butt cheeks would immediately pucker and deferment letters for the children of America's biggest warmongers would soon be written.

Let’s hope there is never a reason to activate the draft, but of the situation is that dire, all hands on deck. Freedom is not free, just taken for granted the US. What a shame..

This coming from the same government that can’t define a male?

The hell there won’t if Leftists control the country for another decade. You think a political movement that tells you what kind of car you can or can’t drive, what size soda you can drink, or that you have no say in whether your child has sexual mutilation surgery is going to draw the line at compulsory military service???
They’ll just call it an “unplanned career move” and start rounding up able bodied males.

I will have my boy declare himself a woman if another draft is instituted.

You think if the US is invaded, manpower would be an issue? Lol

Its a paid promotion, so it shows up on the twitter feed as an advertisement.

You don't think its unnerving that at a time when we are looking at a possible war in Europe our government is sending out reminders that they can take our sons at any time to go fight in a war that no one wants anything to do with?
And they're not even saying "all males must sign up for Selective Service at the age of 18." They want you to know that they can take your only son away from you at anytime that pleases them.
Posted on 10/10/22 at 4:54 pm to boxcarbarney
Unless, of course, that son comes from a family with political connections and/or significant wealth.
Posted on 10/10/22 at 4:55 pm to sta4ever
I agree. We are so far ahead of everyone else militarily we wouldn't need one and even if we do go to war with China there will be no shortage of volunteers. It's not the 60s Vietnam era anymore.

Well no shite.
If there is ever another draft it will be in this country's future, not its history.
