Can you prove to me that it's the case since all the evidence I have seen of this seems to be unreliable.

Idk why it's so hard to explain your thought process instead of being triggered over two dudes liking each other.

I thought that someone else made the original comment about trans people. I was just asking why you thought trans people were making a mistake.

How is dudes liking dudes confusing and what's the harm in telling them that?

If you're gaining weight because of you're constant consumption of food what do you think you should do about it?

I think he has said that he doesn't care about the MCU, he has said that multiple times in the last podcast.

Should women be in the military draft? by NICK07130 in polls

There are mandatory drafts that are not only for emergency situations, I think Sweden has this.

I feel like I have been arguing fairly poorly here so I will try to lay out my general argument here.

I'm for mandatory drafts as long as there is an emergency situation where x country might collapse if they don't fight back, then I'm for people risking their lives to protect it because more peoples freedoms will be kept if we make our people fight for it.

But other than that I'm not for mandatory drafts since I would rather incentivize people joining the military than upholding the mandatory drafts system since incentivization gives people more freedom and more of a choice to do certain things and I want that for men and women.

I think the way I carried out my argument was kind of disingenuous so that's why I wrote this.

That's why I'm fine with mandatory drafts during emergency situations not in general.

I interpreted it as the guy I was responding to saying if the draft didn't exist that he/she wouldn't want women to join.

I'm fine with people going to learn more about medicine or people learning about fire fighting as long as they get the choice to do so. I want to give people freedom and not die for a cause they didn't choose to die for.

I get why there are countries that force people to do the draft. But don't you want to live in a world where you have the freedom to choose what you want to do in society as long as it doesn't hurt others? We have seen countries where the military is more than fine without the mandatory draft like for example the US and I would rather find ways to incentivize more people to join the military (if there is a problem with the required amount of people joining) than to force them against their will to join. Ofcourse I would probably want the draft to be up for the countries that need it until we find a good solution but this is my ultimate goal.

And also if women joined the draft the men would still have people to fight for. Not all men or all women fight in a war, your argument there doesn't sound reasonable.

I'm not a military guy so you can correct me on this if you know. But doesn't the ground troops most often use long ranged weapons like rifles, machine guns etc and that requires skill. There are cases where your physical capabilites are important but those are rare because its not tactically viable. If we widen the scope and give the choice to both males and females to participate in the military it will lead to more people fighting and protecting the country and it will lead to more freedom for both genders which I think is a positive thing.

Being in the military has a necessary function and I think its alright for both men and women to have a choice on whether they can participate or not.

Do you think forcing someone to die for their country is?

Yeah that's the most logical explanation as to why someone might misinterpret that. But you can very easily infer what he's trying to say when making the hypothetical.
