Whoever told you that failure to register prevents an individual for going to school or holding a job, doesn't know what they're talking about.
@wdlindsy@desertsquare @InayaShujaat @wdlindsy it has been a very long time, but I seem to recall there was something along the lines of it being automatic when submitting something like voter registration or a financial aid application.
I think it's harder to fail to register than most realize, the kind of thing you only notice if you are diligent about fine print.
Again though, we are talking like 25 years ago. My memory isn't that great.

Very subtle…

@InayaShujaat
Okay, I misspoke. There has NOT been a single individual convicted in 40 years for failing to register for selective service. There is a total 14 convictions for failure to register.

Not a single American troop on the ground in Iran.
Just use nukes.
Problem solved, and as a bonus, the entire world is rightfully taught to fear and respect America. -

The U.S. military is an all-volunteer force. Nobody is forcing these servicemembers to fight, it is what they signed up to do.@desertsquare @wdlindsy when there's no jobs other than signing up what do you call that?

@wdlindsy I'm sure those poor kids all inherited his heel spurs.

You've never served in the military, have you? If you had, you'd know that indoctrination isn't the only reason individuals volunteer for the military.
@wdlindsyI have blocked @desertsquare @mastodon.social because the account smells fishy.
He claims not to have posted anything because he - the care giver - has to prepare spring planting but he is responding very much on the other hand...

@wdlindsy Yet it's missing the kids blown to bits in the school yesterday. Other people's kids are the most harmed.

I'm sure whoever created the graphic to which you feel compelled — for some reason — to respond in this way will be happy to have this information, though I can't imagine the meme-maker not knowing this information already.

We are decades past the time when we forced young men to fight in proxy wars, while the economicly privileged were able to buy their way out. You're making a very big assumption stating that most Americans understand that we no longer conscript citizens for war. Posting imagery like this is no different than posting fake news. That is what the fascist authoritarians do, not people who speak out against them. -
