      Technically it is true, war has created plenty of friendships that would not have existed otherwise.

      However, that is not what I wrote, I wrote that compulsory millitary service is in general a good idea and that one of benefits is unity and understanding between citizens.

            Because you are finding a trivial benefit to something bad and pretending that’s normal. You can go be a scout, have a sports team, a million other things to have camaraderie. But no, you want the fucking military. In a time when everybody is jerking off to war and finding excuses to enact shit you want the army because friends.

              Yes you are right on all those points, but the topic was mandatory military service, not scouting, joining a sports team or a million other things.

              Is it strange that I focus on the topic of conversation and not list irrelevant topics?
