Jeezus what is this. I am starting to better understand why Lai wants to bring back the court martial system.

Courts Martial is not a thing for Taiwanese military? WowâŠwhy the fuck is anyone even complaining about 4 months conscription then? It sounds like a 4 month stint and then out with virtually no consequences for being an asshat if one chooses to be.
What Lai is planning is just common sense. Letâs hope he doesnât get too power hungry and human rights fartsy. But this shit does need to end. It is frankly amazing more people arenât jailed for life for treason.
Itâs probably a big reason Taiwan doesnât get a lot of top notch military gear, no trust.
Ya, itâs embarrsing. Many people can escape the military for really fake reasons and do office work or just skip it all together. Itâs as easy as getting a medical weed card in the USAâŠa farce. I would guess easily half of the people I know in their 20s have just been able to skip it. Too far, too blind, back hurts etc. Many others can get simple jobs. After they killed the kid under Ma s term, the military lost their last remaining teeth in Taiwan. Iâm sure Ma wasnât teying to undermine our military for Chinaâs benefit, reduce terms and pander to sad mothers to weaken our sentences. For sure he didnât do that.
