Exactly. Most people who sign up for that are actually pretty cool people. Their nobility is being taken advantage of. Now, one could argue that the "I'm just following orders" excuse is no good. On the other hand. I bet a lot of them are going to be doing some malicious compliance, effectively pretending to follow orders by showing up, but just doing nothing the whole time.
No, they aren't. Many of these people are just people don't want to play soldier on the weekends and collect extra money. A lot of them are starting to become the national right-wing bullshit idiots joining because it's easier to join the national guard than it is to join up in the army.
🤷♂️ The two national guard members I know are left-leaning and liked the idea of helping people, of course yes for money, but understandably so. But yeah, I guess I can't say "most". I do think that most of the jerks are still more drawn to the actual army though, and that does definitely help the jerk ratio of the national guard.
