>It's very interesting to read narratives like this online, and how vastly different it is actually talking to people.

That's what happens when you don't step out of leftist bubbles.

>Here's the simple reality: the US military is useless to join for young men because they cannot guarantee you a home anymore.

That's been true for a long time, even before this precipitous drop in recruitment.

>Which were their actual base, poor men who were desperate and had no other option. Exploitation.

That is false. It's a narrative parroted often by leftists, but it's not reality. The poor are underrepresented in the US military.

>Men killing themselves isn't about "open discrimination".

No one said that. Go back and read my comment.
