Thank you for the explanation. (Sincerely, thank you. I've wanted to know.)

>they're gonna kill peoples' bank accounts
🍻 Yes, exactly.
>AI is going to be used to mostly figure out who to AVOID
😮 That's a good point.

I agree with Kulak's point. However, the point Kulak gives isn't that a draft attempt won't happen--only that it can't be *successfully* enforced by press gangs and isn't meant to be enforced (only said to leaders who are hopefully "not so senile as to believe the yes men around them").
>And if you think the US is anywhere near being able to even potentially enforce this with authoritarian methods
The only authoritarian method Kulak gives a ctrl-F consideration to is 'press gangs,' but that's not the favored method of pressure of the US and hasn't been for decades. Resource denial is. (Remember covid days.)
A next piece ties back to this through a topic Kulak addressed but understandably dismissed because it has so far gone unused.
>The NSA records everything and listens to nothing
True, so far.
Palantir sure is getting a lot of money and access lately.
That issue of daunting fed-to-people ratio Kulak gives loses significance as a barrier when it's shifted to fed-to-program and when the goal isn't enforcement but resource denial.
Understand that I'm not suggesting who they're going to draft nor that it would be successful at all.
I'm only showing that the method of press gangs doesn't seem to be the method chased, so whether press gangs are feasible or not doesn't seem to indicate whether they intend to implement a draft--no more than being unable to swim shows whether one intends to cross a river when that one is building a (sure-to-fall-apart) raft.

Thank you for the explanation (sincere)

IT IS NOT OKAY
AFTER IRAN WE'RE COMING FOR YOUR OIL (PAINTINGS)
This is eerie and graceful. I know these posts are showcasing merchandise (very welcome ads). And yet they're some of the best posts this side of fedi 😆 Very cool to see what you and others make. I wish I could buy each one. Thank you.

What actually happened in 2008? (I was young)
From what I loosely gather (heard, not claim), it was something about mortgage loans lended to applicants who couldn't afford them or mortgage interest rates suddenly rising on already established homeowners (I'm not sure how that one would be, unless mortgages weren't at fixed rates).
I really don't know because "explanatory" (exculpatory) articles play hot potato and shrug, and I wasn't old enough at the time.
Anyone here know?

(off-topic from your post, but you're someone here to ask about this)
How much would be reasonable to expect to spend on beginner gear in the US for HEMA, for two-handed longsword? (Mask, gorget, gloves, jacket, longsword)
I've been borrowing, and don't want to keep doing that.
I know it leans expensive. I'm double-checking with you (thank you) that I'm not missing out on a smarter avenue. My irl people (each deeply libshit) are pointing to Purpleheart Armoury as the only worthwhile option. True or not true?
