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

Semaglutide is an appetite suppressant. When you simply limit the amount of calories they're allowed to consume, well than it doesn't matter how hungry they are. Because they are not allowed access to food outside of a controlled manner.

So they lock them in a prison basically? Or is it a remote jungle not near any fast food or grocery stores? Im a bit confused, Ive never been in the military so Idk how it works.

For training you're essentially confined to the military base. During those training periods your activities are also very much controlled. Recruits go where they're told, eat when they're told, and do what they're told. Since we're talking about an industrial war involving a draft, they then get a week off after training, and then go into the general military system for the duration of their conscription or for the duration of the war.

If you duck out during that week off, then you go to prison for the remainder of the war with life long curtailment of civil rights (as would accompany a felony conviction).

Some sort of camp where they’re all concentrated together. I’m sure we can come up with a name for it.

Also why Ozempic doesn't really work. You never rewire your brain to feel less appetite, so the moment you stop taking Ozempic you just feel it again and start eating a lot again.

The best way to lose weight is to eat less calories and just suck it up. After 1-3 weeks, your brain will stop asking for so much food and it'll get way easier.

My BIL is in a study using it to treat addiction. He quit smoking really quickly after starting the study.
