      Drafts are barbaric.

      We shouldn’t accept this shit at any age in any country.

      If we all just fucking stopped doing the dirty work of warmongers we would no longer have wars.

          If the russian civilans followed this rule there would be no aggressors.

          Lol nvm you’re right, forcing 18 year olds to kill people against their will is totally a good guy move

          Lmao you people are brainwashed psychopaths.

            Russian civilians are being conscripted. As are prisoners. As are North Koreans. As are Houthis. What would your solution be, just let those armies take over Ukraine?

              The solution is for everyone to reject war.

              Making excuses to kill like in Ukraine is not any more just than any other excuse to kill.

              If we want the US to stay in control of the world then it’s necessary to fight Russia, but it’s not necessary for amy of them to die

                The Russians are at their doorstep with guns. You can’t just sit there saying “I don’t have a fight with you” and expect them to peacefully leave. They’ve already shot your neighbours. The choice is not yours. You either fight or you die.

                How exactly do you propose we get everyone to reject war?

                Because Ukrainians in general didn’t want the war to begin with.

                How do you propose we achieve that solution, then? We do not live in a post-scarcity world, so there will always be someone who wants what their neighbor has.

                  We do live in a post scarcity world. All scarcity is artificial.

                  Welcome to reality.

                  That being said education is what makes people not fall for dumb war propaganda

        Or you’d all be drafted into the military of the conquering country that was the last holdout for not drafting its people.

          Yeah i don’t make excuses to kill people who i have no problem with.

          Maybe you should send your children against their will to fight for the profits of arms manufacturers?

            The Ukrainians aren’t fighting for the profits of arms manufacturers. They’re fighting for their lives and the existence of their country and culture. The Russians are an existential threat to Ukraine. What do you think is going to happen if young Ukrainians don’t fight? The Russians are just gonna go “fair enough” and go home? You’re an idiot if you think that’s even an option.

        True, but if the random Russian conscript stopped doing Putin’s dirty work, he would be shot. That’s a pretty good motivator.
