Former Coast Guard member says lack of patriotism in Gen Z is culprit for low recruitment. YA THINK! Thanks to a lack of childhood preparedness from their parents, Gen Z is floundering in a directionless void, ignorant of their civic responsibilities, the document that gives them their freedom, or the basic knowledge of what freedom IS. The previous generation entered the world of adulthood hooked on video games. Gen Z became an adult with a constant connection to social media fed through an IV tube connected to their cell phone. They can’t make any decisions in life without guidance from their on-line groupies or followers found in their sacred digital Bible. It’s no wonder ALL service branches are struggling with recruitment, not just the Coast Guard. If this doesn’t turn around, China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea will give them a lesson in subjugation as they launch their hypersonic missiles aimed at an unprepared and understaffed military. They won’t like what comes next if they manage to live through the invasion. All the apps on their phones will be replaced with reruns of propaganda videos extolling the virtues of sacrificing personal freedoms and everything else for the greater good of communism. That might be reality’s slap in the face to Gen Z, but it’ll be too late by then. All they’ll be able to do is wallow in their self-pity for not defending the freedoms they had under the United States Constitution.
