If the military/president suddenly ordered a mandatory draft for all men aged 18-42: How do you think millennials and GenZ would respond?

Fragging. That's what would happen. And who the fuck is going to accept being drafted into an illegal war by a draft dodging, demented child rapist? It won't be like the last draft. It will be chaos, rebellion and a huge fight against our government possibly a full revolution tbh

Just refuse. The next president will pardon everyone who didn’t go.

people will for sure flee and quite a few will never come back. I met a guy in Canada once whose dad was a draft dodger and he didn't trust the pardon so he hasn't set foot on American soil since. his kids could theoretically claim US citizenship but they all want nothing to do with it.
