Date: August 10th, 2025 12:43 PM Author: infuriating house-broken mad-dog skullcap windowlicker 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. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5760732&forum_id=2#49171793) |

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.

They had to age the youngest of their cohort out of harm. Then bombs away, faggots. Gulf War 1, Serbia, Global War on Everything

GenX and every generation after never had to worry about a draft, not even after 9/11 (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5760732&forum_id=2#49172783) |

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