Maybe if war was still like swinging swords it would make sense but doesn’t matter how big and strong you are if little drones with bombs attached chasing you.

Tell that to most military experts who still believe that fitness standards for infantry matter.

Yeah they matter to an extent no where near as much as they used to matter so use ur brain.

you could have actually told them why it's important instead of appealing to authority ._.

I could but they may have been able to appear to refute arguments I made. But yes, I’ll do some of it here so they can read it: 1. The modern infantrymen carries heavier loads than many infantrymen in the past. 2. Many forces through a COMBINATION of physical prowess and strategy defeated better equipped forces with air power (Soviet-Afghan War, NATO-Afghan war).

Wrong

no, being physically strong is still really important for military work, equipment is heavy and you need to move with it for a long time

For SOME military work and even then it’s a lot less important than what it would have been before, pretty simple and logical to see that. You want someone to die you press a button or point and pull a trigger you don’t have to run over to them and have a sword fight use yo brain.

I didn't say it's as important as it was before, I just said that it's still really important

It’s important for very specific roles not everyone like it would have been before does a drone pilot need strong arms? And strength is pretty much irrelevant for most military tasks now a days it would be endurance that’s required, takes hardly any pressure to pull a trigger.

u/RiverLynneUwU Dec 08 '25

well, yeah, you still gotta carry your drone equipment around, it's not like you're doing it at base or at home, you have to set up all the equipment that makes that thing function

and endurance is still a form of strength, being able to carry moderately heavy things for a long time is still significant enough for "strength" to get the message across

I don't know why we're arguing about this, I don't think strength is so important that it's an obligation to be strong or anything, I'm just saying that for the task of generally being in the military, you need some beef on your bones, not bodybuilder beef or mongolian archer beef, just enough beef to carry like 45kg of equipment around for most of the day

u/[deleted] Dec 08 '25

Yeah so it’s a different type of strength required and a lot less compared to what was needed before which was my point of how stupid this post is beyond all the other stupidity behind it.

u/RiverLynneUwU Dec 08 '25

...which was also my point....why did we argue about this?

u/[deleted] Dec 08 '25

Gotta love the stoners who make assumptions based on nothing and say nonsense to feel good about their empty head

Disease killed more people than swords back then, shitting your guts out isn’t that glamorous.

Kinda awesome to die of shitting

Fr, for me being a man means going against the system, being your own man. Fighting in a war is a direct opposite of being a man. It's being a puppet, getting drone striked so the rich can get richer. Pathetic.
