70 years of liberalism

65 years ago a bunch of 18 year old men stormed beaches in far away lands to put down dictators and restore freedom to the world. Today our same 18 year old men don’t know which bathroom to use, are afraid to wink at a chick for fear of getting labeled sexist, and need a safe space to go cry....

Yep; all these small little progressive changes/improvements they’ve made sure have improved our society and strengthened our country.

But I digress...

There have been more 18-25 year olds that have given their lives for their country in the last two decades than did in the 80s and 90s, by an overwhelming margin.

But I digress...

Yup. Yesterday’s hippies became old & cranky, and today’s snowflakes will also be tomorrow’s grumpy geezers. :p

It always seems like those complaining the loudest are these cranky old men who want to go back to their "good old days" safe space.

a little history for you....

65-70 years ago is hardly the 80's and 90's

405,399 US Soldier deaths in WWII
36,574 in Korea
58,220 in Vietnam

Gulf war, Iraq & Afgahnistan were 6,990 all combined.



Home basing is the single largest QOL improvement in the industry other than living in base.

Probably one of the types who lists education as "school of hard knocks".

What are you blabbering about?

You made an irrelevant comparison about 18 year olds and how they are lazy because the are gay or something . When, in fact, the current generation has died for their country in significant quantities greater than gen x. So, you can make fun of millennials all you want, but they have given more for their country than pretty much anyone born after 1955

Death tolls weren't the original point. My comparison was never between gen x and millennials. He changed the criteria, and then started comparing death tolls. I posted the correct death tolls of the decade I was referencing. There was no lazy or gay reference as you claim. There was a simple statement of fact that we used to have men who didn't need safe spaces, and knew which bathrooms to use. That 70 years of liberalism has not helped society.

now, if there are no further misunderstandings and miscommunications to clarify; lets return to the discussion of Home Basing.
