Fund Against Trump!: This Giving Tuesday push back Against Youth Indoctrination for Endless U.S. Wars

The Trump administration's planned increase in JROTC military Indoctrination programs in more U.S. High Schools, under the Project 2025 agenda, and mandatory ASVAB testing, is making more youth prime targets for military recruiters!

The obfuscation that war and the military are a personal opportunity for learning and professional advancement is a longstanding valuable propaganda method, not just for military recruitment, but boils down to manipulation, primarily of economically disadvantaged young men.

My 14yo is making fun of the #JROTC peeps at her school.

I think it's genetic.

At 13, Trump was sent to 🪖 military school. Little did he know, this experience would shape his future as a 💪🏻 tough, no-nonsense leader.

Another day, another #moralpanic about Those #Kids These Days and all the #Crazy Stuff They Say On The #Internet.

Forty years ago (!) I was a fourteen-year-old #JROTC cadet, in the last great hot time of the #ColdWar, obsessed with reading #SoldierOfFortune. I was also an early adopter of what’s now called social media.

They were called bulletin board systems, or #BBSs for short. Usually somebody’s home computer with a few phone lines coming in. You’d dial the number, wait for the screech to come through the handset, slam the handset into the modem’s acoustic coupler, and … magic happened.

On the internet, nobody knows you’re a dog. But on BBSs, they sure knew you were a kid—the more so the more you tried to hide it. Not that many of the adults were much more mature, but I digress.

See, kids do kid things. In my case, as the abovementioned 14-year-old SOF-reading cadet, it was the signature I appended to every post: “Dan the Merc.”

There. That’s a thing you know now.

Can you imagine anything cooler? Anything tougher? Anything more ABSOLUTELY BADASS? Wait, don’t answer that. You in the back, stop snickering.

Relax. Kids grow up.

After all, if we’re relying on poverty to recruit young people, a reduction in child poverty could hurt #recruitment just as much as a free college education.

But hey, at least kids aren't forced into #military #indoctrination, right?

Oh...

NYT report on misinformation being pushed in textbooks used in the US Military's #JROTC programs, but this part really jumps out at me (see thread)
