    It’s going to take the young to fight the fascists in America. Hope they are ready.

      After learning about the term ‘puriteens’ I’m not sure the youngest Americans will want to.

      They young or the fascists? Because the fascists don’t look to be in much shape for a proper beating.

          Young white men seem to be one of the biggest demographics for trump supporters. It’s not just the old.

            A shit ton of those Caucasians are overweight. Sadly that’s just the state of our health nationally. I went back to power lifting and am getting to my three plate goal for benching. I haven’t lifted this much in decades. But I’m still big bellied. So I have work to do to get ready. But I do expect there to be a need to be in shape soon enough.

                Have you read the military reports on how limited the population pool is for healthy and passable individuals? There’s a concern there isn’t enough healthy fighting age males.

                  I haven’t. Is it a function of willing able bodied men being lacking, or is it talking about a draft?

                    It gave a warning that there is a shrinking pool of healthy individuals that could serve or pass boot camp.
