As pretty much any political minority will tell you, the country constantly uses us like ping pong balls and cat toys to win elections or internal battles.
I am sick of my rights, welfare, sense of safety, and hope for the future being dangled in front of me and ripped away over and over again so billionaires and career politicians can be greedy.
So, yeah. Not interested in serving. If my country wants me to fight for it, then it should fight for me as well.
I have two sons in their early 20s and I’m scared to death one of these fascist chucklefucks decides to get us into some conflict we don’t need to be in just because he wants to prove he has BDE and reinstates the draft.
I was in the Air Force in the late 70s. Twenty years ago (roughly) I pushed both my boys into the military, because they were being fuck-ups and I didn’t know any other way at the time.
I’m thankful as all hell that they had the good sense to tell the military to get fucked when in Basic and got out.
No, we don’t want to fight for racist, corrupt, misogynous, traitorous shitheads like Trump and DeSantis.

Learn from my stupidity.
That was honestly the main reason why I didn’t join the military over the last few years.
That and I just refuse to be a part of it.
