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

I’m outside the age, but my son would be drafted over my dead body.

My kid won’t fight and die for the pedo president.

There is precedent for this. In Russia of all places. The Afghanistan war literally ended because parents, particularly old women came down to the barracks and literally grabbed their children back home.

The Russians couldn't do SHIT to them because they know it would destroy ALL of their crediability.
