But you can be that grandad with war story’s
‘Back in my day’ type stories 
Sounds cool no?
It is loaded question and I coming from country where compulsory military service is derogatory, physically dangerous, extremely corrupt etc. is strongly against the practice. It’s an attempt to shovel problem under the cover, like I would expect the very same politicians throw their children in school to forget about them and later whine that they are badly educated.
Putting people in military service to solve societal problem will only make society weaker and exacerbate the problem.

Yep, that’s another big issue…
But still, that shouldn’t stop us from ever trying. Maybe if we worked on that, put more supervision etc, things could slowly change. But there is also a complexity stemming from cultural, ethnic, geographic differences, etc etc.

Society and politics first. Otherwise it’s all in vain.

Dw, I meant no shock-therapy, gradual changes, while also not too perfectionistic.
There will always be some shit no matter what. But we also won’t abolish school just bcs some ppl are corrupted.
That’s nice. But unless you and your friends can single-handedly protect your country… Then u might just wanna swear allegiance to foreign invading powers or dictatorial regimes instead. Or you will understand after you get repeatedly disrespected by some spoiled brats.
Well, the reality of living in a society is that there is some role. The state decided you have to go to school, and the state may decide to extend it into some military training. After all, we also were taught how to shoot in school and stuff too, just it was very short. If u lived in my country, then I would be deciding a little bit about you every time I go to vote.
That would be very populistic to say. I don’t think the effort to gradually bring it in some form for certain duration, while also making proactive effort to not antagonize it too much for populus, would be entirely a bad idea.

I think not. I really can’t understand why a person would undergo that kind of physical training if it’s not what they want for themselves. It’s certainly not like going to the gym or playing sports. I read some comments talking about self-defense and masculinity. Certainly teaching people to defend themselves is something fundamental, but I disagree with the second value. Masculinity is something that belongs to the individual, not a value to be installed in people’s minds, especially in “weak” men. Moreover, not all people are masculine and not all feel the need to be masculine. Those who want to cultivate their masculinity are welcome to do so, that is absolutely right, but it is not what everyone desires. There are also women who undertake military life, and if they like it, that is okay. Undergoing military conscription also means getting in touch with a morality that not everyone feels is their own. Everyone should be happy in their own orbit and not bother others.
Interesting.
War is the paradigm that people function in over here. (this planet)
‘competition’ and it fuels the growth of technology and development.
Its not the only paradigm there could be a more holistic society, like an organism where mutual success drives the whole.
We just live here with the competition mindset, tribal thinking habits.
It would take a larger retraining to get into a ‘mutual success’ way of seeing the world.
people think utopias stagnate,
well yes if viewed trough the current mindset, you cannot see how it can work.
a common goal or mission can drive a utopia forward.
I mean, it truly doesn’t have to be like this, but they don’t really know any better.
they are just acting with that tribal mindset.
countries are giant tribes now.
Tribal allegiance is ‘patriotism’
I suppose that is also part of evolution, learning to transcend the former ways of seeing the world
as a collective.

@TraderRubix You have to move your NFTs that were on the Marketplace back into your inventory, sooner the better probably, but before their deadline. They no longer sell NFTs but they still store them

Yeah, sometimes I wish that angels or aliens would simply purge this whole planet lol.
Or force everyone to ascend.
But that’s just my angry ego speaking.
Because I also understand, that this would be counterproductive and would take away the “earth growth platform” for souls to learn their lessons.
All human society problems on earth are really of the spiritual and mindset-related nature. With enough collective spiritual and consciousness growth all problems will solve by themselves. All those society problems on earth are a temporary transition phase.
So in that sense, a purge would not make sense, because then the souls that are currently dominating this planet would have no proper platform to grow.
And a forced ascension would also not make sense, because the collective ascension detox symptoms would lead to chaos and self-destruction. If everyone would have to face their shadows all on the same day, society would collapse completely.
So humans, as a earth collective, have to grow at their own pace, regardless of my impatience lol.
Because also, I believe, consciousness cannot be forced into growth (otherwise Source would simply execute this without asking anyone).
Consciousness has to grow by itself.
Because everything that has consciousness has also a component of free will in it.
So there always must be a decision made to “want to grow” on some level, even when the option for such a decision is very latent and often has to be triggered by external “problems” first.

Hey toby,
awesome to see you posting.
I hope your discernment continues to grow as you explore the internet.

Yep,
it is unlikely to happen.
(unless there is some other dire reason)
hmm
its not really as simple as that i think.
but the whole system can only move forward if the collective moves forward.
and everything is a part of the human collective.
Even fear and hate.
If you cannot Transend that, you cannot be anywhere else.
Why this is needed
is because, you will not have any concept of how to act and how to continue to maintain a new level of being if you still have to deal with fear and hate.
No, i think those who do move on,
get to move on without carrying the weight of others with them.
You are no longer responsible, the world becomes Leela.
You will still be seen and judged through the ego’s of others.
and forced to ‘fit’ within their perception of you.
There is no real escaping the hardwork.
learning to overcome fear, hate, judgement.
if you didnt deal with these things, and were somehow artificially placed elsewhere.
you have no previous learning or concepts with how to deal with a massively different state of being
and awareness.

Bro, are you joking?
I never know.
Also, regarding the army, they can’t force millions or rather billions to fight.
I don’t give a damn about their interests.
I will try to live though lol.
Maybe some bright objects from the sky will save me, when and if it comes to it.
