They get violently upset at the drop of a hat and fly off the handle without thinking of consequences or even stopping to determine the best course of action.
They don't care whose lives they ruin or break apart as long as their narrative or point is made.
Will they know how to fight a war?
They'll order airstrikes and nukes before they even know what the issue is.
They'll send hundreds of thousands of troops to their deaths before they even stop to consider peace or negotiations.
Will they have the stomach?
Theu have the ability to block out all reason and truth and continue to push an issue for years without the thoughts of how it affects anyone but themselves.
They're already domestic warmongers. If the #blm SJW crowds get into higher political offices they might be the most tyrannical war mongering people you've ever seen.

No generation or individual knows how to fight a war until they are in a war. The "Greatest Generation" included. George Patton knew how to fight a war, but he fought in WWI. The generation that fought WWI certainly knew next to nothing about war. War comes down to one thing kill or be killed. The youth of today are probably more mentally prepared or conditioned to react to that scenario than many of the men that fought in previous wars. We're a much more violence oriented society than we were prior to previous wars. They will figure it out. Just my opinion.

Probably considering we've been at war since they were 4 years old.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say today's college kids won't be able to wipe their asses much less fight a war.

All of which have no shortage of youngsters applying for it. Of my three nephews one is currently serving in the Army, the other is lifting weights and running track to get in shape to join the Army, and the third had a bad heart which kept him from joining when he was alive.
Every generation, in every country, frets that those darn kids won't be up to snuff when it comes their time. Almost every time they are proven to be completely full of shite when the next generation steps up and does what has to be done and quite often does a better job of it then the generations that came before them.
Least we forget, the "Greatest Generation" was, for the most part, drafted to fight the war. Most of the soldiers from the Baby Boomer era who fought in Vietnam were volunteers.

We already have plenty of drones, remote M.E.C.H. is on the horizon. Call of Duty has been training them to become the ultimate cheetos eating warriors.

The amount of butthurt on this board about the incredibly small minority of SJWs at various colleges is really remarkable to me.
People really seem to be expressing some hurt feelings about SJWs.

Do you know how to fight a war? What the frick have you done that's so great?
Posted on 12/16/15 at 10:27 am to Slippy
What's funny is we fought two wars. One was the longest in history. Not to mention the shitty entitled economy boomers created for us.

They are offended about other people being offended. They're hypocrite pussies.

Did they know during WWII? We still have the armed services and the academies to take care of that.
