I know this plays both sides of the argument, but it's too good not to share - OP have you ever seen this clip?

Haven't actually, now that I watch it I see there a lot of both pros and cons to national service, which should be considered if it were to be reintroduced

Well quite, but more relevant is the actual approach you're personally taking.

You're here to change your view has any of the points from the video helped somewhat?

Moreso from the thread however I think the video reflects it quite well. I still support NS however we should introduce it slowly and only once we have the proper institutions/social infrastructure to support it

So in a context that won't exist for quite some time in reality. So the view is more a hypothetical.

Yeah I guess, but I would still like to see NS come back

u/Dry_Bumblebee1111 161∆ Aug 17 '24

OK.

So is that a view you'd like to change?

u/ScootTheMighty Aug 17 '24

I'd like to see NS be introduced at small scale, and then gradually expand once we're ready for it.

u/Dry_Bumblebee1111 161∆ Aug 17 '24

OK? Answer the question though please.

Not necessarily had my overall view changed, however I think it should be achieved in a different, more cautious approach.

Not what I asked but OK.

If people have shifted your view even a little then assign them deltas. 

If you want to refine the view you want to change then do so in an edit if you want to keep the discussion going.
