They can't even stomach milk from cows.

Nope. High standards of living breed weak men.

Of course. Everyone just needs a little push and either they get in touch with their baser instincts for self-preservation or they perish. Simple as.

The generations that fought WW1 had the highest standard-of-living up to that point in European history.

For the first few years, no.
After the war had enough time to grind the whole country into shape, yes.
Keep in mind WW2 pretty much pulled America out of the worst economic depression in centuries.

they cant even stomach having their fee fees hurt. like they'd last about a day before they fell apart because they couldnt see how many likes they got.
pathetic. i weep for the future.

Most people would be able to after getting thoroughly traumatised so they could completely mess up the next generations again with their crippled emotions and unwillingnes to talk about anything of the horrible shit they went through so you could at least understand.

Whoah, check out the paint on the second helmet from the right, is that some rare camoflage?

Most likely self-applied in the field.

Where is all the raw WW2 footage? Why is it all hoarded and only ever released in pieces in documentaries with unwanted commentary/music?
Like footage which goes on for hours or even just longer than a few minutes

not westerners anyway

>generation raised on ultra violent video games and school shootings
>stomach it
We've been at war for 17 years, 4 years aint shit.

Only one way to find out

This, except unironically

rise up

Yes, but only because buried beneath a landfill of out of shape, selfish yuppies there's still a core of battle hungry fighters waiting for their time. The yups will be marched to detonate IEDs while the real men take the initiative.

so only american kids will be any good soldiers at all since they have school shootings every month

Not for long. Internal elements inside western civilization would commit sabotage from the inside.

>MUM

Yes, every generation has been "Softer" than the last yet still able to put up just a hard a fight.

Men are still men.

young people nowadays have no respect for their elders.

Where would you go to view this?

>implying shitloads of Chinese conscripts won't break down, freeze up, or go completely off the reservation if their command structure ever experiences the least disruption.

War is Chaos. It is ironic that approaching war with formlessness was uplifted as the ideal in the Art of War, but the modern Party thought is utterly unable to integrate this foundational concept into their philosophical control state.

This chinks lack creativity

>muh VIetnam conscripts
Still shot gooks fine

it's tough to say. I think it's a matter of how united the people of the nations are politically. if the political left and the media put on that trademarked "war is never the answer" spin, and decide it's their moral responsibility to do nothing but talk about exagerated civilian casualties and make it their mission to end the war by shitposting the public into division again (see: Vietnam) then the answer is a definite "no". that being said, even the sjw types could at least support a war in principal if you convince them the enamy racist or something. maybe. just hope the west never fights China, we'd be doomed by the far left since they love communists.

People can stomach a lot of things when they have to.

But >we don't have to so we won't.

I can't see why anyone would want to have a grinding total war, assuming that he has anything of worth to do in his life.

By what unit of measurement do you calculate that by?

they sleep too much, they fiddle with their phones, they have no respect for their elders blal bla

t. Boomer

Anything that would require intelligence goes out the window since modern China has deliberately made the citizens as fucking stupid as possible to make them easier to control.

>QUOTATION: The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. Socrates (Σωkράτης; c. 470 BC – 399 BC)
Get a new sentiment, the one you're using is older than Jesus. Fun fact. Socrates also lamented the fact that reading and writing were a thing because it meant you no longer had to remember everything. It was his "kids these days are so lazy for being able to look everything up on their smartphones"

I never implied I wasn't.

Fucking so much this. This shit has been a complaint for millennium. Throughout all recorded history, men and women have complained about the newer generations.

You're just in a fucking information age, now, so rather than having to search for evidence of kids being shit, that information is brought to you and laid at your feet. These people have literally always existed. Your ability to recognize them hasn't.

u do know ww1 had lots of brown people fighting in them but it's all white washed

same shit will happen whites go in lots of casulties suddenly brownies from 3rd world shit holes get drafted and sent to die

no one cares about the brown folks so no loss of votes and war goes on

Somebody has that medival drawing with two lines saying
>this of old
books and a quill
>this of now
beer and cards

I got you senpai. Had to search for a while.

kek, thanketh thee broth'r

Yes yes the western front, a conflict of european nations, was saturated with people of color. People like you making these claims enrages me

Any given government that is as willing to frivolously spend the life's blood of their own citizens as the powers of WWI were deserve to be overthrown and their leaders publicly executed. I'd hope that people wouldn't have the stomach for another protracted murderfest like that, but I know better.

What said.

It would be rough at first but people are adaptable. Or they die. I mean fuck, for a lot of Tyrones in the hood war would be an upgrade from getting ambush-fucked up with no gun on them.

I am pretty sure that was the joke, user. His quote is almost verbatim what I remember hearing apocryphally for some Sumerian guy. Though judging from your citation Socrates is the first or only case we have of it being legitimate.

I always liked how Hesoid's whining about living in an iron age is the first (that I know of) case in history of the "Le wrong generation".

From what I understand, the reels of film are public domain and held by government institutions, and the footage is digitized by companies who then sell licences for said footage to be used in documentaries.
It's been monetised, basically. Even though the film itself is public domain, the files recorded and processed by the companies are their property and are only available in high quality without a watermark by licensing the clip to use in a product. That's why you only see short snippets in documentaries, and the footage trickles down to the masses this way.
The companies also have websites and Youtube channels where they upload watermarked and low resolution footage, but at the very least it's nice to be able to see the footage at all.

>shoot him because he's in my way and he didn't stockpile ammo

Wasn't it a massive deal in WW1 how the American troops were so soft they were called "dough boys" and were coddled and naive to war, thinking it would be a big adventure? They still adapted

one of my coworkers was telling me that right before the civil war both sides thought it was gonna be some great, grand and glorious war and that it'd be over before christmas, I mentioned how pretty much everyone has thought that before like every war.

I have faith in the us military though, army infantry and marines are some of the healthiest and fit guys we've had

though I have heard of chinese soldiers being weaklings and retreating at any sight of warfare, I wonder how Europoors would react to a conventional war

How is that even possible?

There were literal spectators at the first battle

But they really mean it this time, wouldn't you say there is more than enough justification

No chance.

he never mentioned the western front specifically, he just said WW1 in general. in which case he is correct, since there were WW1 theatres in shitskin parts of the world.

War....War never changes

This just keeps going deeper and deeper the more you analyze it and apply it

Maot retards can't stomach the idea of people being mean to each other online. How would they stomach having to kill an enemy combatant? Or even being trained to use a scary "high powered" polymer rifle?

Most* I seem to be the one that is retarded.

Do the Germans in front have a camo on their helmet?

Not the leftists

idk but we would definitely need an hero to get us through it

This post radiates boomer energy

The elderly have no respect for young people.

They are going to have to at the end of the day.

Based reading comprehension.

And yet violent crime is twice what it was in the 60's (90's niggas still OG tho).

Forget WW2 , the "men" of fighting age can't even hear opposing opinions without chimping out & demanding the government change.

It’s the Aussies.

Fucking women, how much do you bet that’s a single parent family. Just take the fucking console off of him. Lock it in a cupboard, sell it, smash it. Jesus fucking Christ, whenever I got a little too addicted to Runescape back in the day my father would just take the PSU from the computer and I’d get shoved outside to play in the woods with friends.

It’s not fucking hard.

>my son is addicted to video games and hasn’t been to school in 2 years
>better let that continue.

Stupid woman.

Can confirm. Worked in a grocery store for 6 years. The worst customers were the old folks and middle aged women. Some were fine but the vast majority lacked any respect for anybody.

Modern generations think an AR-15 will bruise your shoulder. No way could they hike with an M1 Garand and shoot .30-06 effectively against disciplined, motivated and well-equipped Germans.

They could possibly survive a stalemate in the trenches, but if you handed them a trench knife they'd probably think it was a gay sex toy and try to fuck themselves with it.

Voluntarily signing up to go be a desk jockey or maybe shoot poorly-trained herds of ragtag sand niggas isn't the same as going toe to toe with Germans

They would do whatever their masters tell them to do. Just like the generations of the world wars.

WWII was actually pretty chill for most soldiers. Sit around the post for several weeks, maybe an occasional hour of shelling if that, maybe you'll get into a firefight each month. Even if you're German.

Contrast that with Vietnam and the heavy reliance on air mobility, where the average soldier spends 80% of his time foot slogging through hostile bush before getting choppered back to the fob to do it again in 8 hours. The average soldier sees far and away more combat than a WWII GI, despite the smaller scale of the conflicts on broad terms.

If it was man down shitpants, I think you will find current basedsim overdose dies off pretty fucking quickly.

How many people are going to care about black representation in video games when angry men with guns are storming your counties beaches? How many anti capitalist pro socialist movements will gain traction when you don’t have enough bread because all the food has to be sent to the front lines? How many ‘fuck drumph’ liberal elites will there be when they themselves get drafted?

I’m not even LARPing, how political would you be when your family, your way of life and your entire country is under threat from something bigger and badder than you?

Even the dumbest retards know how to prioritize you brainlet

I ain’t got no respect for commie pot smoking hippies

Either self painted or they just smeared some mud on them

This. Middle aged white women with short hair cuts and highlights are the epitome of entitlement.

No.

Especially with a press that would be backstabbing them at every turn.

Just look at how they publish enemy propaganda as fact while questioning their own government even in these small-scale conflicts.

I know, that’s my point?

hot desu

>"kids these days are so lazy for being able to look everything up on their smartphones"
That's not lazy. It's efficient. Laziness decreases your productivity. Efficiency increases it.

Why the fuck where the 90's so violent ? And yes can confirm I lived through that shit.

There's a big difference between actual crime and reported crime.

>questioning their own government
What are you talking about? When have the media EVER been against the establishment? Certainly not in my lifetime, and probably not even in my parents lifetimes.

Lots of new actors from new locations.
The Mafia weren't saints, but they were better at staying quiet than a dozen different gangs filling in the gaps.

I think the new generations are capable of horrific violence of a scale worse than the last couple of preceding generations

Not an actual quote from Socrates.

Niggers.

>Could the modern generations stomach an world war like WW1 and WW2?
Media control was very tight those days. So it isn't easy to say that those generations did stomach those wars either.

There would be many more soft dipshits getting chewed up like gum at first but then as the battle rages on it would inevitably move up the food chain which is when the paranoid preppers get to have their glory days. Modern living standards has made many many people soft but there is still the murderous Jason Voorhees walking around your neighborhood. Just imagine for every neighborhood there is at least 1 person that has been prepping for the ability to murder 3 neighborhoods

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

School shootings are extremely rare. The vast majority of Americans know nothing of school shootings except what they may have read in a newspaper or seen on TV.

>completely missing the point of the question

u r an idiot and a faggot

To be honest, I bet it's something as simple as the way crime is reported and converted into data
