Today I kinda regret this decision, but frick serving with shit and moronic people ffs
Really surprising about LatAm countries. I'd thought this might in some way result in a large military to combat the cartels. But does military get corrupted by those very cartels? I'm aware of SOF becoming bandits in Mex.
>But does military get corrupted by those very cartels?
Absolutely but not all of them.
Most of the time it's just guns/ammo/explosives being stolen from military barracks and being illegaly sold for drug dealers and other criminal paramilitary groups.
But the worst problem is that there's no structure for military career anymore, they just get trained for 10 ~ 12 months with guns, guerrila tactics, high explosives handling and basic survival training in dangerous terrain and then get relieved from military service forever.
Since most of them live in poor neighborhoods live favelas and such, they get co-opted into drug cartels and paramilitary groups to make a living again. In that sense, the army trained those people to become criminals.
In Brazil, cartels have connection to leftist politicians and the supreme court
For example, during the pandemic the military police was forbidden to do operations in the favelas
>In Brazil, cartels have connection to leftist politicians and the supreme court
That’s fricking nuts
Right-wing politicians too. Cops and ex-cops have their own gangs which start out as vigilante protection rackets before effectively becoming their own gangs.
Barracks at Bragg were notorious fir this and other problems. Everyone knew. They just didn't do anything about it. Except yell at soldiers to clean the mold off their asbestos popcorn ceiling.
The Finnish garrison I served at years ago had a few buildings like that, with obvious mold issues. Some of them had been cleaned up and retrofitted with better ventilation, but not all of them.
There were a few where you could take a couple of steps through the door and immediately feel the air growing heavier, like there just wasn't quite enough oxygen for breathing. It was probably just my lungs getting inflamed.
Took a few years before I could breathe through my nose without allergy meds. Mold's no joke.
Thailand doesn't really have mandatory service. it's either do training once a week in high school (the vast majority of people do this. Why wouldn't you?), or do the conscription lottery. Or do like I did and just stay over seas forever for higher education (I guess I could do it since I did have to worry about visas because dual citizenship). Or do like my dad and just bribe someone during the lottery.
I still wonder what happened to that Anon with dual citizenship with some Scandinavian country. He was an officer in that military, but the Thai military still wanted him to go and do the conscription lottery.
>be me >18 >gf convinces me to choose civil service so we can stay closer together
I wish I chose the military service, even if it was moronic and 90% waking up early and running around for no reason.

That was pretty much the only interesting thing we did there. Otherwise it was the most mundane few months of my life packed with a bunch of rural morons that didn't know how to use a fricking toilet. I was forced to teach some of them.

yeah considering the last time the draft was invoked was 50 years ago I'm gonna go ahead and say no
I'd point out mandatory military service doesn't mean a draft. It would be something like conscription regardless of war or peace. The U.S. has never had anything like that.
Yeah it should but I guess the map is quite iffy. Currently it's suspended for germans during peace times but still active during wars or times of increases military tensions, it still can be simply reactivated.

Sounds like the worst of both worlds - train them but then discard them.

>No data on the czechs
What did they mean by this?
Don't know, but we don't have conscription here since 2005

>infrequent
wth does that even mean
Not frequently.
No countries seem to have that one anyway, unless its just too close to the "NO" to see
chile has it
I got dispensed due to excess.
There's too many people so despite it being conscription, they only get people that want to join.
>interchangeable shades of pink
I'm not going to trust the data if the person presenting it is a moron
Mexicans get conscripted?
Sounds like even worse time than the russian one.

yes
what a b***h

That sentiment is exactly what "de jure" means, you moron.
I'd point out mandatory military service doesn't mean a draft. It would be something like conscription regardless of war or peace. The U.S. has never had anything like that.
>It would be something like conscription regardless of war or peace. The U.S. has never had anything like that.
That's not true. Until the draft was eliminated in the 80's there was still conscription between the wars. It just slows down significantly.
My grandfather was drafted during peacetime in the 50s. It happened, not frequently though!
Got my ballsack twisted by 60 IQ subhumans
many such cases
Shouldn't Germany be De Jure too? They didn't technically abolish conscription.
Yeah it should but I guess the map is quite iffy. Currently it's suspended for germans during peace times but still active during wars or times of increases military tensions, it still can be simply reactivated.
that map is completely fricked

Asking for a friend.
