Every generation prior to me had some degree of military service; I knew damn well, early on in life, that i would not join under any circumstances. I’ve seen how this country treats veterans; I’ve worked most of my adult life alongside active duty and retirees (contractors and federal employees alike).
Thankfully I’m too old to be drafted. 32 as of writing this, if it had happened when I was younger I probably would’ve tried to get out of it, different ways though since I was so stubborn and I didn’t end up realizing I’m trans until I was 26, almost 27.
If the shit hits the fan they’ll draft up to 55. They drafted to 45 for World War 2 and had authority to go to 65. The only reason Vietnam stayed young is the limited engagement area could only fit so many people.
They’ll be drafted, still, as their birth gender. Forced to live their dead gender while actually dying for their corporate overlords.
The day I get drafted is the day I go underground.

I guess those different ways might come in handy after all then.
I think most of them would prefer prison
Where we will be put into prisons that are full of criminals too violent to draft.
Id rather frag my superior.
Someone tried that in Pennsylvania and missed
Or fined $35,000 dollars or something, as happened to a friend of mine for not reporting that he had asthma when trying to join the service.
Edit: Don’t lie to them mofos, it’ll come back to bite you really hard in the wallet, if not outright get arrested.
