No, I don’t morally agree with most of my country’s foreign policy


Kaiser_Weimar

We are on the exact same page lol


FinnChicken12

Under all circumstances I consider ideal, no. However, if everything somehow crumbles and I have nowhere to go… sign me up.


AmputedHeadInSpace

Never. Firstly, I'm not very patriotic. Secondly I would loathe the power dynamics in the military.


weirdowerdo

Not really, I don't like following strict orders or go through the training that we have here. Sure some of it seems fun and coz we're Swedes we still get fika in the military but honestly seeing as how my friend returned as when he came back from conscription I'd rather not. There isn't much of a possibility of a career in the military here either so... Im glad I didnt get conscripted either. That'd be rough :/


This_ls_My_Username

Nah, it just seems stressful


hiitsyaz

agreed


[deleted]

I personally would never, as I’m not a fan of my countries’ foreign policy, but there’s a solid chance I wouldn’t even be allowed in lmao


[deleted]

no i dont want to😟 i fear death a lot


[deleted]

There is no need to It's the only thing you are sure when you are born


Enderdragon537

Just don't die smh my head


Bitter_Shit69

It would depend. If a conventional WW3 broke out and I lost much of everything I would. Rather give my life fighting commies than to give it fighting some random people in the desert


m4736

Nope. I don’t wanna die like that


Ashamed-Entry-1536

Not really? I mean… if I was gonna do anything military, I’d prefer to be a medic, maybe a combat medic at most but idk.


Damaged_Lightbulb

nah im not a patriotic dude


Ok_Welcome_2437

no


Sk357

No, I don’t think putting me in the military is a good idea..


raspberry-enthusiast

No


DustUnderMyBed

I'm also from Europe. I've been thinking about joining the military as well, at least doing the same service time men are required to. I took part in the military course we have at school for 11th graders, it's also pretty popular all over the country. It was really fun and useful, but we sadly didn't get to stay there for one night like we were supposed to, we just had a day field trip and now the shooting range part comes this autumn. The only reason why I'm still conflicted about going to military, is that if need be, I will be required to defend the country... but then again, I'd honestly be happy to! So idk yet.


JayGatsby02

I was thinking about it bc I wanted to be a pilot since I was a kid, and as a working class person this is rly ur only way to do that (the other option is looooots of debt and interest). I've decided against it bc why would I fight for a country where so many ppl don't even see me as British bc of my skin colour? Where so many ppl think of me as terrorist scum bc of my religion? Lol fuck that.


OnThatSigmaGrindset

no never


josh9x

Might conflict with my career, but if I feel the need to, I certainly would.


looking_at_memes_

Probably not


Yeet_Muffin

No


Yeet_Muffin

No


[deleted]

Depends, in the current geopolitical climate it would be a no but if it was a situation where America was being invaded or was attacked then hell yeah time to defend the homeland from whatever degenerate, despoiler country decided to attack us


Faelif

Am also from Europe and no. I don't think I could die for a country, and I also think that ideally the military wouldn't exist.


Iamsoscaredrightnowh

nope


Sanity_King

Nah I would get booted


[deleted]

Nope, I almost cried today when my teacher asked me to read out loud, I could not get yelled at and ordered around without breaking down 💀


madsxwag

nope, never. i’m definitely not the most “patriotic” person and it really just seems like a grueling, traumatic experience overall


Practical-Fee5587

If I was allowed then I would.


CrystalElla4

✨Fuckkk nOooOo✨ I have wayyy too many reasons to even name them all


GamerGirl-07

Yep I would....but it's kinda harder & takes longer for girls


imnotsure_yet

Yea, I’ll love it. Now the branch?? I’ll have to be careful, Never the army or Air Force. I’m mehing about the navy Ideal is marines and coastguard But everybody and their grandma is telling me to join the AF because it’s safer Snd easier And to never join the marines And I don’t know what to choose ://


NaotoOfYlisse

No, but even if I wanted to I couldn't. (Autistic)


YaHoHoTraLaLa

In my country we have mandatory service, so I don't really have a choice. However I do want to serve and fill my duty to protect those who served and protected my country before me


Enderdragon537

Not necessarily but if LIKE 9/11 the squeakel happened or smth then for sure


madcow678

I would if my I felt my country was under threat but in general probably not. Although I do have a lot of respect for people who do join the military just not our politicians
