If your jolly Jack Tars were that keen to fight for King and Country, why did the Navy need to employ press gangs?
Naval impressment...
Press gangs were well known for the physical force they used in recruiting men into the Royal Navy
The Crown claimed a permanent right to seize men, and the practice was at various times given parliamentary authority. The Crown's right to press was vigorously enforced during the naval wars of the 18th century by Acts passed in 1703, 1705, 1740 and 1779 for example.
The men pressed into service were often ordinary apprentices and labourers.
During the wars with France from 1793 to 1815, an impress service operated in British coastal towns.
Most soldiers are just cannon fodder for a state to use in these useless wars. Women giving birth to babies and families having to go and work for a living in order to feed them to make them strong and healthy, for some greedy fucked up politicians that are drunk on power to go and conscript them by force or send them to die for the Greatness of the State which is their own exaggerated egos on a power trip and with GREED on the brain.
It is bad.
Puerto Ricans were made US citizens in 1917 just in time for the draft in WWI, a very unpopular war in the USA, but the US government had illusions of Imperialist expansion and grandeur, and the Puerto Rican men had to fit the bill of die for the US without being able to vote for the men who send you to die. It was another Royal Navy Press gang Ingliz. This time with racially mixed men who they disrespected. Perfect cannon fodder material. But, they picked the wrong dude. Don Pedro Albizu Campos. He served in the Army of the USA and was outstanding. He hated the racist shit Yankee crap rules and a bunch of Southern Racist assholes in the US Army. He decided liberating Puerto Rico was essential. And being a nationalist that was not a White National Socialist but a racially mixed genius with a privileged education....he busted a move to liberate Puerto Rico from US rule. An ex-WWI soldier from the US Army.
Why can't these idiots learn something from these press gangs and bullshit? No one is snowed.
Then @FiveofSwords does not or claims to not know who coined White Genocide. Yet he uses it in this forum. He calls himself an expert on his own political philosophy and he has no knowledge of the phrases he uses? It is ridiculous shit.
He must know all species including our human species, which are Homo Sapiens are eventually going to go extinct. It will not be just the 'white as the driven snow' only European rooted in Northern Europe, it is EVERY RACE on the planet. The destiny of all species is death. That is a fact. But, the issue is what comes after the death of a species?
We can look at the examples. We have Neanderthals who as a distinct species is dead. But it lives on in the gene codes of some Europeans. They are present there. Not dead. But changed and transformed.
Dinosaurs are gone. But they live on in the gene codes of modern bird species. Not dead transformed.
And it is so with all of the living creatures who struggle for existence.
This White Genocide narrative that is totally all-consuming with @FiveofSwords is incredibly obtuse. Does he even care about how many cultures have been blown away totally genocided out of existence by modern capitalism and by the Manifest Destiny stage of the USA?
Native American peoples in the US is a small percentage when the entire continent before had a lot of cultures from the land of North America for thousands of years. Roaming and living off the land. All wiped out in killing frenzies of the worst sort. Colorado had the Platte River running red with blood over the Arapahoe Massacre and Sand Creek Massacre and so many massacres. Over land fights with the supposedly superior morally White Race people who wanted the land wiped clean of Native Americans.
Now they worry about their fucking White Genocide because of the South losing their wealth or power or some shit excuses that they can't produce any evidence for?
Then they go and sterilize Gypsies, Blacks, and Puerto Ricans in their quest for racial purity and political purity? The Nazis killed off disabled people and this and that people with fervor for their ideal society of shit and they LOST and their Fuhrer had to run to South America on a U Boat according to Abel Basti the journalist. So what does this mean for these cries for White Genocide now? One word. KARMA.
They should think about what it means--in the big picture @ingliz . What does all this fear of being wiped out means to these lack of compassion and disrespectful control freaks using violence and fear to control the world and all the many 'races' and ethnicities in it? Do they know what the hell they are doing as a political body these White Socialist Nationalists?
They send some man in here screaming about White Genocide and Replacement Theory when all they have done in human history in their political column is precisely that to OTHER GROUPS. It is a boomerang effect from the Karmic coinage tradition from India. Lol.
You need to learn your historical lessons in time to adapt to a new reality. The people who are creating problems now are all power hungry, land grabbing, need to control the wealth with the petrol, the grain, the access to everything. To dictate to the rest of the world with these exaggerated warmongering lack of conscience political leaders who are fucking worthless Ingliz.
They send these whining Nazis into the world to talk about White Genocide, when that mentality that has caused their own losing situations because instead of respecting LIFE they want to KILL it off hoping to dominate the Earth, other nations, other ethnicities, stamp out cultural diversity and variations which are endemic to human life and human survival.
We are all as a race called the Human Race going to go EXTINCT. That is a fact. What we are fighting for is to have the right to reach our total and complete manifestation as a species. To reach our best expression and potential. And to allow a new version of what is the best of us to go on to become another species. Like the Neanderthals before us and the Dinosaurs before us. The Birds of the World are the legacy of the Dinosaurs. We live off of them through using their dead bodies. Petrol and or gasoline fuel products for our SUV horrors of which @QatzelOk rightly criticizes. We had our chance to not use that as an energy source that is not sustainable or good for the natural environment. Greed made it a moot issue to not use it. Addicted to that machine and transportation system we are. To our own detriment too.
Yet, we keep not understanding. We have to reach our potential. And as one species and not some shitty racist petty shit...we need to be able to bring out the best of who we CAN BE.
In order for that to happen? The petty race wars need to be dumped for all time. Not used as a social and economic control device by some greed-filled capitalists manipulating psychologically the insecurity of a bunch of defeated Confederates from the Southern USA who would rather burn their nation state to the ground than share power with a bunch of Brownies and Black people. That shit is not going to help anyone in the end. Not survive at least and not transform ourselves in this hard world we live in.
Nazis complaining about shit in my opinion. They should try living the life of a Mayan peon in the Yucatan who is living with 108 F heat and no fans and no AC and being paid one dollar an hour and trying to feed three kids and relatives, in some little hut, in some tiny town with a corrupt PRI asshole mayor who throws their votes away and steals their taxes and then tells them they have no power. They send their kids to government schools, and can't afford shoes. And they are not thinking about White Genocide. They are thinking about living another day. Surviving the here and now. The reason why most races on planet Earth have made it this far.
That White Genocide phrase is about ENTITLED crybaby bullshitters.
