the country needs an outlet for violence. all societies do. there was no UFC back then, no YouTube, no Twitter, no political unrest, and no wars. The only thing America had was the NFL and the occasional Mike Tyson fight. For an entire decade.

Not real wars. The total number of US casualties in those was less than a football roster, and the number of unfriendly casualties was like 300. That’s like one summer in Phili.

It took boomers about 12-15 years to *really* make sure they were too old to be made to serve. Then they could begin voting for Wars again. They had to age the youngest of their cohort out of harm. Then bombs away, faggots. Gulf War 1, Serbia, Global War on Everything

say what you will about boomers, but they lived through the Vietnam War draft and when they came to power they made it so the country never had a draft again. GenX and every generation after never had to worry about a draft, not even after 9/11

ljl when i was in grenada i read the wiki on that "war" and it was laughable, grenada had like 400 troops with 2 APC's and nothing else, the US still suffered multiple causalities mostly from friendly fire or complete furk ups, i think navy seals literally got lost in the water and had to go back. its a 180 read actually, it makes u realize the US military is just simply incompetent from top to bottom and nothing changed to present

war was way more consequential back then because the Cold War was at its hottest point since the early 60s. not something to be entered into on a whim as it is today.

Vietnam hangover was still very real. the first Gulf War was really the 'We're BACK!' moment for war lovers.

People were too busy trying to clear their NES backlogs. Games were hard back then.

Reagan & Israel were busy funding Afghan Jihad & Iran. Israel was also funding Hamas on top that. All that work in the 1980s set the stage for the Afghan Jihadists to launch 9/11 & for Hamas to launch 10/7.
