gollark: You can do those WITHOUT forcing people to spend time in the military, via optional things?
gollark: As vaguely bad as school is, I prefer it over an environment where you are expected to blindly follow orders, have no privacy/free time/etc, and do physical activity lots.
gollark: I don't think you know what "physically able" means.
gollark: Forcing people to do things is, in my opinion, to be reserved for cases where you can be *very sure* it's good.
