That’s okay, obama’s generals will just lower the standards.
Education has long abandoned the goal of increasing cognitive function so no wonder there’s so many morons.
I’m sure most if not all of them are glad they wouldn’t quality as they are probably scared of the idea.
I’m scared of the idea of not being able to tie my shoes without groaning and gasping, or not being able to run a mile in an emergency, or not being able to do some hard work. But these young people are in for some physically hard times and early life suffering, medical problems etc. I would have to force my kids to stay outside and play and limit their time on video games.
Glad to say they are all in good shape and health conscious now.
What these dope addled, obese, mentally deficient young’uns don’t know is this: If our masters decide to throw a big war most of those dope addled, obese, mentally deficient young’uns will be scraped up and sent to do bullet catching duty without regard to their health status.
Not only the military but police departments as well. Certain criminal offenses used to be disqualifying, not any more.
Affirmative action and quotas has also lowered the bar to drastic levels. When hiring involves a certain level of minorities and a certain level of women, it is incumbent that those same levels also graduate.
The stories I could tell about unfit (can’t drive, can’t shoot a gun, can’t push their fat butts off the ground) that miraculously graduated from the academy and subsequently put out on the streets, scary stuff.
Yeah, that’s been going on since Clinton. Nothing new.
My sister had her son diagnosed as Attention Deficit Disorder. It’s in his school and health records. He never used any associated dispensations, and she took most of the Ritalin. Now, he’s been trying to join the Army for almost a year, and the ADD/ADH has turned out to be a huge stumbling block. Because the military has had big wash-out numbers with the kids whose discipline issues were deemed a handicap, they are reluctant to even look at them.
So while she thought she was gaming the system by giving him a “disability” boost, she actually harmed his future prospects greatly. Karen strikes again.
Special shoutout to the NEA and AFT.
Job well done.
Lance o Lot- That’s awful! Can he sue his mother to get that on record somehow? (I’m not kidding)
I think robotics and AI have become sufficiently advanced enough now that they can be given the mission of protecting our nation and make people mostly unnecessary and obsolete.
That solves the problem.
Fat homos can simply identify as skinny homos.
Whatever they do don’t bring back the Draft. At the end of the Vietnam War the military had way too many misfits and absolutely worthless dummies who should’ve never been drafted in the first place except for the manpower shortage needed to fill quotas for cannon fodder. I hated the draft which is why I enlisted in the Navy when I did in 1972 because I didn’t want to be a ground pounding grunt fighting in an extremely unpopular war that we should’ve won.
But the left wants them unable to serve!
If Biden is elected I’ll buy them icecream to keep them from signing up cannon fodder the Lefty criminal Milidustry.
Deviants of all stripes should be roundly rejected, they are a threat to good order and discipline.
They wouldn’t like the military anyway, they use guns in there!! at least for now.

Defeating military robots via cyber attacks might be easier than killing a soldier.
If such robots are autonomous, it may work. If they have some or most of their actions initiated from a server or controller somewhere, that becomes a single point of failure. Sure, they would likely have backups, but then all backup controllers could conceivably be compromised.
The worst scenario would be the enemy gaining control and make the robots turn around 360 degrees and attack us. Sounds like sci-fi, but then again, we’re talking about robots.
All you need to to know robots, they can become Daleks or Cybermen or the Borg real fast if controlled by the wrong side. I’ve probably read too much scifi to know not to trust robots.
the mostly grobiden votuhs have 2 unzip for counting to 11, de-bra for 12. competent in working negro-phones & diversity “knowledge”, but can’t tell north from south or make change for a nickel.
