The fact is, young men should not waste their parents' and/or governments' money going to university to study useless SHIT like "literature" and "philosophy" and art.

Young men should either JOIN THE MILITARY to gain life experience or LEARN A TRADE if they don't already have marketable skills.

We are living in a generation that encourages DEPENDENCY and LEECHING. UNIVERSITY, especially in its less useful courses, encourages this.

Let me get this into your head: you are MEN. Not pampered princesses. Wanting to live in a cushy palace and talk about bullshit with your lazy peers is a privilege that should be reserved only for the independently wealthy and royalty. Which you are NOT. Doing that kind of lazy bullshit does not make you a man. It makes you a PUSSY. And being a pussy is a terrible, terrible thing in a male. Get your ass straight, learn how to something useful, and get a fucking job.

>join the military
>not a leech

son you just went full retard

I've been in the army since july last year and if there's anything I've learned, it's that the liberals are right about many "soldiers" being welfare queens

bottom line, the army is WAY too fucking big, we could probably be cut in half and still do the same job

females who don't do shit and get pregnant to avoid deployments, idiots who can't hack it in the free market, poorfags who joined for college money and have no patriotism, all this and more can be yours! just sign up at your local recruiter's office today and in as little as one week, you too can work with these fine individuals

I like the army, just saying. sure is military industrial complex in here. every time the army spends millions of taxpayer dollars on stupid shit like an overpriced swimming pool with massage jets or fuel for air shows, I internally cringe

the army hemorrhages money, it's a crazy scandal and it's going on right under your fucking noses. the army is too god damned big, we do not need millions of soldiers sitting around talking about their feelings and shit with privatized psychiatrists that charge the army $1000 every time you call them

>> No.1742186

>>1742173

The fact is. The army is a job, and it's a job anyone halfway fit with their body intact and that isn't proven to be mentally abnormal can get into.
Therefore there's always this unspoken admission that "Need a job? Can't get a job? No other obligations? Able to run and do pushups? Join the goddamn military."

As a result a lot of losers seem to get in. Some branches of the military are more selective, though, like the air force and the coast guard.

the sad part is this isn't even the case anymore, there are a lot of call of duty generation skinnyfat xbox kids and fat neckbeards in the service too

can't pass your PT test? oh well, we'll just fudge this little bit of paperwork and...

plus there are a lot of senior NCOs who are old and fat or injured and are on permanent PT profiles. this means they do not have to exercise with their unit, they just sit around and get fatter

WHY ARE THESE FUCKERS STILL IN THE MILITARY IF THEY CAN'T RUN OR DO PUSHUPS? KICK THEM OUT

I'll tell you why, because military industrial complex. it's the last haven for losers who have no other option. if the military actually enforced its standards, a large chunk of "soldiers" would find themselves discharged and then you have a bunch of unemployed mouthbreathers and old people protesting in the streets. butthurt, conservative butthurt everywhere

OP, your post, a million times your post, liberal arts college faggots and music school faggots are useless and because the united states has so fucking many of these leeches this is way the other nations are catching up if not passing us up in the global market. We need more people in skilled trades, people skilled in mathematics, computers, and sciences; basically anything that has practical value and not stuff that people look at and go "wow thats cool, big fucking deal." like art and music and other faggotry that should be treated as hobbies and not as a career goal, if you get lucky great, but quit fucking counting on it as there is a massive chance you wil end up working some shit job someone with a GED could do.

OP, your argument is invalid and wreaks of pity for none other than your own self. For some reason you are mad that you didn't go/ couldn't afford to go/ didn't finish or whatever other possible, yet likely, scenario.

I am a Navy veteran. I served 5 years and then used the GI Bill to finish my undergrad. I graduated with a BA in Philosophy and then went to law school. I'm all about working hard and manning up, and I value my time in the Navy for a host of reasons that I could never list here for lack of time. Either way, though, you have to not only work hard but work smart and set yourself up to succeed. People like you, who denounce college as a viable and worthwhile pursuit, only make it easier for the rest of us who are willing to put forth. Thanks for staying out of our way.

I thought it was because Einstein was right in his "Essays In Humanism" and war means treating people like intechangable resources, or numbers; which unwanted cultural influences are always encouraging us to do. Frankly I can think of better criteria for evaluating attractiveness than what best benefits the munitions industry.

literature being the form of story-telling and journalism, and philosophy a purely intellectual art. obviously if everyone was either one of these society would crash, but intellectual pursuits are important too. if i have to explain it to you then you're to retarded to understand anyways. i won't waste my time.
