If you said this about fraternities, everyone would ridicule you for hours. I don’t think the technological progression of the navy would have been hindered if we had had a nicer working environment.
- sjg007 6y agoFraternities are basically lord of the flies right?
- CyberDildonics 6y agoWhat are you basing that on? In Lord of the Flies, the kids burn down an island and kill the fat kid by dropping a boulder on his head.
- sjg007 6y agoAllegory.
- CyberDildonics 6y agoThat doesn't make any sense as a response. Lord of the Flies is an allegory for anarchy and violence driving a group in a desperate situation. I asked what you are basing your comparison of the book to fraternities on and you told me a literary device used by the book instead.
- jorts 6y agoNot even close
- s1artibartfast 6y agoThere are other factors besides technological progression to be considered. If you want "workers" who are willing to brutally kill others and sacrifice their lives without questioning their orders, the question becomes less clear. IT is entirely possible that the optimal mental state of a soldier is not the same as a healthy and productive member of society.
- chrisgd 6y agoEvery actual war that called up those that weren’t ready and trained proves this point wrong
- s1artibartfast 6y agoI don’t see how unless you think untrained draftees performed as good or better.
- chrisgd 6y agoThey sacrificed themselves and killed others - that was the point. I imagine those not hazed are more likely to help others as well
- s1artibartfast 6y agoThey did sacrifice themselves and died in greater numbers. Untrained were far less effective and less able to help themselves, let alone others. They were meat in a grinder. They served their purpose as raw meat, but if you think they were superior, we simply disagreed.
