I'm getting irrationally irate because of how stupid this is. Bad weather for an amphibious assault can cause you to lose your entire army.

Like obviously this poster wasn't thinking about this literally. But if my commanding officer said that I would consider it my responsibility to frag him.

The silver lining to all this performatively and wilfully stupid toxic masculinity that they are injecting into the US military is that it degrades their ability to do evil.

It is probably going to have a lot of nasty spillover domestically and it is going to make Yankee stormtroopers even more brutal on an individual level but overall this is going to hurt morale, recruitment and the ability to adapt efficiently to situations.

It was really heroic of those guys to go kill Nazis, but it's not good to have D-Days. We should not strive for D-Day toughness. Especially anymore where you have drones, snipers, and Minecraft redstone contraptions everywhere. Like getting sober is a heroic thing to do, especially as a struggle, but never abusing alcohol in the first place would likely have been gentler on the soul. I only bring up the example to say that not having Nazis in power in the first place means not having to rouse an army to resist them and then there wouldn't be a multi-country wide, multi-generational psychological scar about having to be shot at in a boat. We'd be better off not ever having to know what it's like firsthand. I've never broken my leg and I don't need to experience it myself to understand it's something to avoid if I can help it.

And if I'm being real, if I had literally no choice, I suppose I'm capable of shitting myself in a boat, getting out, and getting shot. It's not like it's a physically demanding thing to die and if you don't then you were what? Sitting in a hole? Running up the beach with a gun? You could be part of the writhing mass of damned poor souls. But, again, what if we just didn't damn souls? That's the sad and horrible part of d-day. It's not like more masculine energy was going to deflect the bullets and explosions

This has to be satire or bait or something. I just can't imagine someone saying that genuinely.

You know what?

They send a entire battalion to attack during a tornado because "They'd never expect it"

WW3 will be fought by generals who think they'll be remember like WW2 generals but will in fact be remembered like WW1 generals
