23:16I think being drafted personally
23:16They did plenty of outright drafting... was what what most countries did.. levy armies
23:16At least if I am drafted that's not on me
23:16being sold into is worse
23:16Yeah there’s a reason it was banned in Germany at the time
23:17the theatrical heroics makes the reality hit even harder
23:18My god they're doing a musical number
23:18Conscription is far worse.
23:19This is scary but it's definitely not depressing
23:20The draft is forced.
23:21id rather be sold the latter
23:21for the viewer or the one experiencing it?
23:21They do it now with ads.
23:21this scene looks fun singing
23:22"Wich is worse: Diarrhea forever or migrane forever?" gee idk
23:22i mean if you have to go. . then blissful ingnorance is a boon
23:22Drafted is a sign of desperation
23:22signing up and having Innocence ripped from you
23:23These kids aren't going to make it
23:23think later glory now
23:23propaganda-fed indoctrination is scarier because you believe the lies of grandeur and heroism
23:24at least if you die quickly with the false promise you won't have too much time to worry about your decision
23:24Being drafted is defnitively worse, albeit not by much.
23:24I believe they were called a "Something" Youth
23:25the merchants never go to war
23:26Look how joyous they are
23:27Mom I got drafted :D
23:27I'd like to stay ignorant, so 1. Both are real scary, though.
23:27Being tricked into wanting to go
23:27every war will be framed as some sort of heroic, you still have a choice
23:28willingly going because if your drafted you atleast have the comfort of helplessness
他
23:28than the former former way worse
23:31the first one. the second one only hits with hindsight or from the outside looking in
