The LGBTQ+ community should start talking this up; Getting professionally trained to defend themselves and other minorities; setup defensive positions, drone support, etc. It would absolutely scare the fuck out of the MAGAts picturing fit AF people in drag with perfect eye shadow, carrying ARs, flying a flag with a brick.
lmao anyone who thinks this would work either hasn't met or hasn't paid attention to someone under the age of 20 recently. the idea that any young person in America worth anything to the military would choose to help this shithole country is laughable. I know an entire 10th grade class who would unironically choose jail time before helping the US military fuck anything else up. the ones who like the military are already on track to enter it and are, uh... not typically of "high value" from the government's perspective.

Id be for mandatory armed or civilian service if it was paired with major tax hikes in the rich, universal health care, public works initiatives(high speed rail, Internet, bridge works) free college for all, training counts towards or in lieu of apprenticeship programs for trades.
