@Sam Specter PA What parts made the most sense to you?
I will give you one example to start. The part about women having a real stake and participatory role in the movement. James Mason spoke about women being fanatically loyal to the cause when you let them in. He said they would be great for a functional fascist movement when you bring them into the fold in the right way. @Thomas Ryan
Loyalty without function is a bit less valuable. They can't fight any better for any amount of loyalty, or work beyond men in terms of leadership. The right way, I suppose he imagines, is as wives and mothers working on the more community side of the internal struggle.
It's getting late now, but I could go on. My girlfriend and I, for example both want to have children and start a family. I think that a healthy fascist movement has women who are ready to go to bat for us as eagerly as the men. Maybe they don't get the same roles, but they do have a place.
There is something romantic to me about the coed platoons of Starship Troopers, but I am still unsure of whether I see that as practical.
Gonna be honest with you here, it's not.
You're looking more at wives and mothers who can shoot a rifle pretty well to defend the home in case of something reaching there, and perhaps teaching the kids to as well.
Could you elaborate a bit? One of the Soviet Union's advantages over US in the distant past was their use of female snipers, pilots, tank commanders, infantry, etc. In their military.
**us*" no capitalisation
We underestimated their troop strength and that cost us
The Soviet Union's military never went head to head with that of the United States or any other significant powers after WWII, with the exeptions of Iraq and Finland, maybe missing a few, but I don't remember the women in their ranks, however many there were, being the deciding factor there. Was more to do with numbers, mechanization, and fanaticism.
Sure, there are always individuals on the far ends of the bell curve that can invalidate any standard, but an exeption does not a rule make.
I didn't mean the United States. That was a grammatical error on my.part.
Tbh there is nothing good about women in combat roles, I can talk for days about how their integration in America destroyed the old days of the republic in a way.
It's terrible for unit morale and homefront morale, they don't have the same physical capabilities, they don't have the same mental capabilities for war, and it provides further logistical issues.
@Alfred NC I would like to hear your stories about this.
If you don't mind me asking, are you a veteran?
There's a direct correlation between integration and the military going to shit.
Sure bro, I'll PM you and discuss, it's a topic I'm passionate about.
Yeah, I've been in two militaries.
Ok I would like to hear from you. This is a topic that stuck with me from Siege because I've seen a lot of different flavors of failure and I was wondering if sex played a role.
Out of all the things to get caught up on with Siege, really would not expect that to be it.
I thought there was about to be major fedposting but instead we're getting girlfriends
I like this
lol
@Sam Specter PA Women in the infantry is a huge mistake. Non whites are bad enough, but female severely disrupt unit cohesion.
Such a bad decision.
I had a problem with a lot of guys in the infantry due to lax standards. Women cannot physical match the standards that the infantry requires.
Most normal men can't match the standards that the infantry requires.
Women are physically incapable of it on a biological basis
Not to mention the fact that their inevitable intra platoon whoring will cause massive disruptions.
The infantry is ***fucking hard*** on your body. It strains you on a level that most guys cannot comprehend.
I'm 26 years old and my knees pop every time I stand up.
Can someone say
Broken hips
Reserves for the win.
That's directly attributed to my 5 years of hiking and slogging it out with my boys.
I dont regret that. And I'm not mad about it.
It's just a fact of life.
I saw a woman in the black belt mcmap program being dragged in a run by a camel back hose.
That's women in the infantry in a nutshell.
Lol
