Military training is made to drive out people totally unsuited for stress, and to knock alpha duchebags down and teach them to be cogs in a fighting force, not stars of their high school sports team.

People that are mentally fit sorta coast through training and end up just a bit more bitter with stupid people and humanity but otherwise don't suffer mentally.

Typically smart soldiers get out before reaching the higher ranks leaving idiots in place to continue through to being senior NCOs who come up with retarded regs to drive out intelligent people and ensure the rise of morons

Most smart people don't join the military unless they're poor or need easy job experience in fields where getting entry level positions are very competitive. Those that do join, typically don't go career unless they have a commission and have a reasonable chance to reach top brass. Also being intelligent ain't the same thing as being smart.

25S have a shit-ton of math in their courses. That equipment is a combination of expensive, complex, and sensitive.

But these days a good 25B is pretty much critical to everything. Easier to be an IT tech and learn radio and satellite than to try to learn IT stuff from the other way.

I did very well in school (top 15%) but my graduating class was almost 600 people and there were about 100 kids who had gone to the best schools and had the best tutors their entire lives, and maybe 50 of them hogged all the scholarships to universities. Of those 50, probably 8 actually needed and deserved the money as the rest were wealthy and already had trust funds. When I applied for FAFSA and stupidly answered that both my parents had graduated college, I qualified for $250 over four years. Only the most destitute white kids qualified for anything and the rest were left to figure it out

>>
>>34871499
The enlisted side of the military forces you to be stupid if you have any inkling of intelligence. It's built for and around the lowest common denominator.

The officer side of the military encourages you to be smart in and out of the field, but hamstrings you with bureaucracy, bullshit regs, and dealing with the lowest common denominators.

Anyone can use it. Education is only expensive if the only idea of an undergraduate degree is a 60,000/yr private low-t liberal arts school.

I live in California and get fucked daily, my annual tuition is about 7200 a year. I get tuition covered in full along with a big check every semester that covers textbooks, a parking permit, and living expenses. I'm not even a vet either, so I don't have any GI Bill assistance.

I am an O-3 (Captain-equivalent, but not US military) personnel officer in a staff role for a deployable unit of approx 250 personnel. This includes a mix of logistics, communications and combat force personnel.

Basically, your people will fuck up at any given opportunity. Every afternoon, every weekend, every exercise, every post-exercise leave period, every Christmas and Easter.

Soldiers, sailors, airmen, and (presumably) marines get married (paperwork) then divorced six months later (more paperwork), they hit eachother in the nuts on exercise (paperwork), they say stupid shit to one of the fifteen females in the formation (paperwork), they get drunk and cut their arms open and go to hospital (paperwork). Anything you can imagine.

At the end of the day, their section/platoon/flight/division etc. commander ends up having to do that paperwork, and discipline them, and maybe try not to laugh, and try to defend them and get them out of jail or out of hospital or whatever.

For a young man fresh out of whatever training school, to get posted in to do this kind of job, ages you quickly and exposes you to a lot of experience in a very short period of time -- and that's before we start talking about actual deployment.

Me? I drink.

"Gee officer anon is a nice Lt"
I was easy to work with, pulled my weight and took the knocks with a somewhat good banter... As a captain, that kind of evaporated within about 6 months and you quickly realise that if you aren't an absolute cunt every waking hour of the day making sure someone's not fucking up, its going to literally turn into Lord of the Flies meets Deliverance in about the time it takes you to turn your back. Actually deploying isn't as bad as at least then you just have to stop them getting shot and blown up more than usual, but most of them quickly knuckle down and find some focus. Or the great tradition of military peers tends to sort out the slackers without me ever having to deal with it.

I would sooner drag my dick over broken glass than do it in peacetime though.

Hitting is the lazy way of doing things to begin with. They are allowed to use force if it's in self defense (you take a swing) or they think you're a danger to others at that moment, but in reality using it instead of far more effective methods is just stupid.

And there's always one or two idiots who just can't be trained, and they get recycled and eventually just get a general discharge.

I'm going the Academy route so it's basically guaranteed if I pass a flight physical which I should. The Air Force has 1000 pilot slots every year, usually about 500 go to Academy grads and the rest barring a couple will go to ROTC.

So basically, go to the Academy. If you can't do that, do ROTC and get a STEM degree. If you can't do that then you better be shit hot if you want a chance at the scraps left over for OTS.

Assuming you mean you want to join the U.S. military, you'd need to be a resident I believe. Not totally sure about that, because I know foreign nationals that ENLIST earn citizenship. I don't see why it would be different for commissioning.

If you're not talking about the U.S. then I have no idea how to commission into other countries.

This and the "It's Already Gay" comic are probably the most accurate things he's done. I swear give people a real taste of how military personnel are and I guarantee we'd have a smaller military where you have to be basically in great shape and have 95 or higher on the ASVAB.

Then the DADT repeal about them servving openly. And now you get the same doom and gloom bitching about letting Trans personnel serve openly.

>>34882144
The difference between gays and transsexuals is one is mentally unstable and their entire identity is revolving around a mental defect.

There's no difference though. The rate of same sex rape has trebled since DADT was repealed. Trannies are just faggots that went the full monty so they can take instead of receive. And neither of these deranged categories of human beings has any place in the pressure cooker of a combat zone, at a civilized minimum.

If any military spending is going into their transitions I would consider it a total waste and I personally could never trust them fully to hold up to stress in actual combat if they ever got into any, which if it's a sentiment anyone serving also felt could have some obvious consequences.

Total expenditures were 1/10th that of Viagra, and the personnel count so low as to be completely meaningless in terms of readiness (which it must be noted they avoid the timed to avoid deployment) compared to off-duty sports injuries and female personnel who intentionally get pregnant so they spend the deployment on Rear D.

here in canada, even well before that, they would cordon off protests. same for any kind of block party or festival and especially for parades. they wouldnt bother with concrete barricades because $$$$$ but there'd be at least a squad car and a pair of bikes at every turn

and not even for peace trucks, just for retards who'd try to drive through and then get stuck and then cause* an altercation with their presence in a car in the middle of an unrelated parade/protest/other event

By the Church declaring that combat in the Crusades wouldn't require penance, it became economically more sensible for a knight to wage war there than in whatever current fights were going on at home. Getting monks to pray away all your kills got expensive. Especially if you were King and responsible for every death on the field.

God forbid you end up discovering how good of a man Godfrey of Bouillon was and learn that the first Crusaders were essentially men who left home knowing it was unlikely they'd return for no real personal gain.

And I'm well aware of Europe's bloody history but implying that Europeans were incapable of nothing more than consistently killing each other is retarded.

Ah yes blame the fact that Islam's singular purpose of domination having cultural and technological consequences is the fault of evil Europeans because muh crusades and not at all having anything to do with, you know, the fact that it's a one-dimensional religion? Also ignore the fact that men like Saladin still existed long after Christianity was receding from the east or that most of the famous Arabic philosophers were Christian.
>>
>>34889595
Aha so the theory is that the moors were ever European, and that the moors can be conceptualized as black... I heard people refer to Irish as black but meh. /k/ is for guns, Europe is for europeans, reconquista was comfy for the karolingians
>>
>>34889610
And then a few hundred years later Europe conquers the world to turn it into a resource farm off the near slave labor of the locals.

>Reminder that officially Islam considers Judaism and Christianity as Predecessor beliefs of the same god, and that worship of such is protected in their countries as long as they are natively Christian rather than engaging in Apostasy from Islam

>shifting the goal posts so hard because you don't like being unable to twist the defense of a homeland into being evil because Europeans did it

I'm not talking about the few hundred years later nor even really past the First Crusade. I don't care. That wasn't the debate. However, if you really want to start talking about slavery, all I'll say is ask who started it, who regularly practised it, who profited mostly off of it and then in the end who ended it. You might not like the answers.
>>
>>34889653
>and that the moors can be conceptualized as black
They were dark-skinned African Muslims, so, yes?

> I heard people refer to Irish as black but meh.
Probably more because of how historically shitty the English treated them, which followed into the US during the Potato Famine.
>>
>>34889695
Slavery's ancient as fuck. The Old Testament dedicated a ton of passages to the taking and treatment of slaves.

Or are you referring specifically to the Chattel Slavery system of the early Colonies/USA?

>>34889714
I'm referring to the slave trade truly starting and booming under Muslim rulers.

The Ottoman states basically had to be completely crushed by the French to stamp it out in North Africa and to some extent the north western regions still have it in some countries. Heck they're calling for it to be re-introduced in Saudi Arabia
>>
>>34889756
Which ruler? I don't know, but it began as early as the ninth century once sea routes under Islamic control had been solidified. It was an extremely profitable practice and well-maintained. Captured populations of cities if they were Christian would often be enslaved and sold into Egyptian harems even during the 10th and 11th century.
>>
>>34889776
Naturally, the Islamic world is trapped in a 7th century mindset and constantly tries to return to it.
>>
>>34889803
Lot of their 'scholars' have basically put it into the same category as jihad, something that is inextricably connected to islam
>>
>>34873994
I am unsure, maybe it is due to the military being so hyped in the US?
Of course your hugely varying degreesbof school quality might also influence that.
>>
>>34889815
Yeah, but the problem is that the relatively modern Wahabiists have hijacked most of the education in the region because their Saudi sponsors fund it.
>>
>>34888317
You should read up on this. On one hand it was about muh christianity but also about money,lands and plunder.

But also about Muslims conquering the cradle of christianity and making trade hard as fuck.

Seriously, the first expansion Wave of Islam was a crusade/djihad without the excuse of reconquest.

And the ottomans and their forebearers warred every summer against their neighbours for conquest and Plunder.

Summer campaign.

Anyone who thinks the Muslims were innocent victims of an evil crusade doesn't know enough to be talking about the crusades in the least and have the same mindset that caused the messiness of the later crusades.
>>
>>34889662
You do realise that Mena being Muslim was not predominantly due to them being so awesome?

For example:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umayyad_Mosque

Wikipedia fails to mention the Basilica was torn down when the Muslims had reached a high enough Population.

When they where a minority ruling christians they played nice but later decided to tear thr Basilica down and show dominance by builiding this thing with the help of christian architects.

To be fair, they did pay a sum to the local christians for reimbursement.

Just because we already spend money on dumb shit doesn't mean it's acceptable to spend money on more dumb shit. I don't even think women should be allowed to serve in the first place for that reason, and the fact that they aren't required to meet male P.T standards.

"Historical value" is kind of a thing that's treated as dangerous there too, though. It's a huge debate in the region whether it was right for the Saudis to tear down the ancient city around the Kaaba to put up more hotels and modern shopping centers.

On the one hand, the Hajj has 1.5 million pilgrims a year, and that's only likely to increase and boost the amount off lodging, both in hotels and the tent cities, needed.
On the other, they turned what was a city with deep historic and religious meaning like Old Jerusalem into a theme park.

They hate history and forbid archeology for possibly producing stuff that soes not support their views.

They are right anyway from a religious reason and want to keep power as well so they just shit on history like old iconoclasts. Another similarity to IS.

When you are si RIGHT even facts do nit matter.

No, it's actually based on however they're currently interpreting the Koran's ban on "idols and iconography" meant to prevent, for example, the worship of Saints like in Catholicism.
>>
>>34871541
This is wrong and you know it. You can sense peoples intelligence and it effects how you act toward certain people. Its like going to the grocery store and buying tomatoes. You inspect the fruit and see if it is clean and large enough. Its the same way with people, they can be naturally athletic and have more "perfectly shaped" brains.
>>
>>34871499
There are many jobs across all five branches of the U.S. Military that require higher intelligence. Maybe being in the Infantry of the Army or Marines may take little intelligence, but I'm sure doing intelligence and technology jobs in the Navy, Coast Guard, and Air Force require you to be quite smart.

Torni wasn't a nazi though. He did a stint in the SS and was eventually kicked out because he wasn't interested in learning German and really only wanted to join to kill Russkies. If I recall, he was SS for less than 6 months before he went back to service in the Finnish military. His primary goal and motivation was to kill commies, not to advance National Socialism.

Trans people are 10 times as likely to commit suicide than the general American population, which is at about 4 percent. Are we to assume that trans people are bullied ten times harder than normal people (or gays for that matter), or are we just gonna finally call it a mental disorder so they can stop lying to themselves and get the help they need?
>>
>>34902370
Attempt rate. Not completion, but hey, keep acting as if there aren't other factors involved.

I'll remind you that the military suicide rate is twice the general populace too.
