Will Americans forgive him for draft dodging Korea and Vietnam?
>>
He retired, so no.
>>
They forgave Bone Spurs Trump for draft dodging.
>>
Chris Evans is so handsome I'd forgive him for anything.
No homo.
>>
Who cares? He simps for blacks and troons.

He can dodge every war, it won't make him less of a cuck

I don't get the boomer meme. Why was "draft dodging" considered to be bad?
>>
>>152044083
by the time Korea happened in 1950, he was well over the age of 26 (the upper limit of the draft age) since he was born in 1918; besides which as a married man he would have qualified automatically for deferment (which is not dodging, since if necessary he could have been called up); by the time of US ground troop deployments in Vietnam in 1965, Steve Rogers was 47 years old (never mind the decade he spent in the future)

if you're asking why a super-soldier would need to stop fighting wars at any age, the answer is simple: he's just a man, that's the whole point of his character: he's a good man, a kind man, but ultimately, human, and so the idea of being dragged into forever-wars (and away from his family) wouldn't appeal to him

if you're seriously equating family deferment for middle-aged married men with spurious draft-dodging on medical grounds, you're probably an irredeemable 4F

draft dodging was when a man who was within the draft age (18-26 for the period OP is talking about) sought to get out of military conscription on non-genuine grounds, such as invented medical problems; this was often associated with outright corruption (bribery of or favoritism from the recruiters or of doctors to gain a false medical exemption, for example) and so, outside of Russia, seen as a very bad thing, because it meant that those families didn't lose their sons in those wars and weren't seen as "participating", which was unpopular and un-American in spirit

also it was a federal felony attracting up to several years in prison if you were caught, so these people were criminals

that's not the case for legitimate deferments (family, incapacity, education etc) as those deferments are necessary to keep the army in good condition and the country itself running

I mean, beyond that, the distinction between him as a solider and him as a representation of an ideal is a recurring part of the character. The second and third movies both draw on that. Given the fact that he's been to the 21st century and knows how they go, he'd have reasons to oppose getting shipped out even if he wasn't retired.

If he fought those wars he could've stopped them by defeating the Yellow Skull

They want you forced to die for little hat land

as a returned veteran he was unlikely to be drafted

>>152044927
we need blood spilled upon the earth or else the sleeping serpent will awaken.

>>152044927
Because people are war mongering dipshits and like forcing young men to die in pointless wars because it makes rich assholes rich.

It is a meme. There is no logical reason to be against draft dodging.

How are you planning on dodging the draft? I wanna see you try

>>152044083
Americans laughed at actual veterans getting dogged by an actual draft-dodging tub of fat, what the fuck makes you think anyone would raise a stink over a man that saved the world multiple times sitting out two shitty wars?
>>152044862
Homo, but yes, he is a handsome man.

I recall George RR Martin talking about how he was opposed to the Vietnam War and being a part of it back in the 70s so he was supposed to sign as a conscientious objector where he would have to do civilian volunteer work back at home instead but the selective service guy in his city was so jingoistic that he basically let George go without signing anything because he thought the shame of not participating the war would be a fitting burden.

So GRRM is technically a legal draft dodger.

>>152046106
Good for him

Draft dodging is only bad when you go around glorifying war. That's why John Wayne, Sylvester Stallone and Chuck Norris are cowards.

This. You get a man fighting wars for all his life and you'll get Big Boss, a man who knew nothing else but fighting wars and tried to recruit all sorts of soldiers to his cause while being chased by world governments who wants to keep the MIC well oiled and constantly running.


>>152044927
Only white people got away with draft dodging, and you didn't even need to be a billionaire's fuckup son to get out of serving.

>>152044083
It was his duty to please that booty so he could not be deployed.

What issue was this from?

>>152044927
The greatest generation were raised to believe every conflict the US fought in was justified. It helped that these conflicts were always ratifed by congress but I digress. They were fed a steady supply of propaganda to the point that you were socially stigmatized if you simply threw out scrap metal that could go to the war effort. Now imagine these people who only ever knew undying loyalty to the US having to see their children actively try to get out of public service. Of course they went fucking ballistic. It was as if everything they went through to keep their country safe during WWII was for nothing because their kids didn't show the same fervorous loyalty to their nation as they did. It didn't matter if the conflict was completely different or that it was ran entirely via the executive branch. People saw the younger generation actively opposing something that was considered a civic duty and it pissed them the fuck off.

It's kind of shocking how the people trying to genuinely answer this question are fucking idiots that have no concept of what they're talking about.

Imagine letting yourself get psyoped by the small hats this hard. So many of the greatest gen/boomers would allow themselves to die for them

Anon but think about the Jewish billionaires and megacoroprations who won’t get their quarterly profit gains and profit from your death
