Shortfalls in some of the military services' recruiting goals for fiscal year 2023 demonstrate the challenges that lie ahead for the all-volunteer force, the Defense Department's acting undersecretary
I mean, I find it weird the teens think the US military is evil but also think NATO be invading evil Gommunist Chyna Vuvuzela cuz no iPhones red fascism
If it helps just remember that they have deeply unexamined views. Also, as a former teenager, I can attest to it being a very stupid chapter of my life.
teens are very stupid, but today’s teens have even less reason to ever read things and examine things than we did bc their environment is 1000x more distracting
their gestation periods were also spent in a womb with 50% more plastic and various other things, which probably contributes

also literacy is seriously on the decline and in addition to being “distracted” they’re also more overworked and more underpaid by an even more ruthless economy. Even if their attention spans were perfect, I doubt someone is going to roll out of their 3rd job itching to read volume 1 of capital. They’re going to go home, sweep up, do dishes, take a shower, and collapse in bed.

ehh I’m not sure that matters much for teens
I just did some research and found extremely conflicting data on teen labor force participation, but I think teenagers’ behavior has very little to do with the job market directly, although some of their anxiety might be traceable to their parents being more stressed from said market.
Isn’t this mostly cuz young people are too out of shape these days? I don’t think anti-imperialism posting is the main contributor here.
That is a factor but also kids really do see through US propaganda much more often nowadays

The US military has repeatedly decreased recruitment standards in that regard (or so I’ve heard), so I don’t think that’s it.
Chud Zoomers think that the military is soy while the progressive ones think it’s evil.
