i literally don’t know what you are responding to because it seems like you’re addressing something completely different.

men are disposable, meaning their lives are not as valuable??? i mean.. men in the US have to sign up with the military at age 18. cause fuck ‘em, let them die.

That doesn't mean you are disposable. A draft is possible in most countries in time of need and some even removed gender restrictions. But the US hasn't fought a defensive war at home in a long time, so I get your resentment. But this does not mean you are worthless in a vacuum. that's an insane generalization.

This country treats men as being disposable. I don’t know what your issue is.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No it doesn't. There isn't even a draft here.

...that is far from the only example of men being disposable lol. idk why you are so weirdly adamant this country doesn't treat men like they are disposable when it does, objectively. men are always expected to sacrifice themselves.

did you mean “how so?,” because i can point to centuries of data where men were head of household and patriarchal. do you know the phrase “women and children first?” perfect example of men being seen as sacrificial when expectations are high.
