This meme is circulating on social media today.

@desertsquare absolutely! For example, I'm judging you right now for being too arrogant to read what the fuck I wrote, where I specifically stated that you are free to pass moral judgment.
You can pass moral judgement and still have empathy for people. Still think they deserve better from life.
But yeah. You didn't listen to me the first time so ‍️ ‍️

@desertsquare @wdlindsy in the 1980s alone, about TWENTY men were PROSECUTED.

@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.

@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.

I 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.

@johntinker Thanks — a good reconfiguration.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@foxdickfarms Fantasy is so easy to engage in, isn't it?

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@desertsquare Thank you for providing that piece of information that I doubt will come as news to the vast majority of Americans. 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.

@wdlindsy
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.
