They didn’t say Russia wasn’t to blame, or that what Russia is doing is justified. They said - and I happen to agree - that conscription is always wrong. No one should, under any circumstance, be compelled by force to fight and die for their state or for any other reason. The choice to risk one’s own life for a cause - even a cause of defense - is your choice alone.
Should young Ukrainians volunteer to defend their independence? Probably, but that’s up to them, or at least it should be.
there’s no room for this kind of nuance in this community, it’s a bunch of what I can only describe as rabid liberals.
oh I must be a Trump supporting Russia man for saying that.
It’s funny how they’re all choosing to ignore that they can go fight in Ukraine right now. I wonder why they aren’t?
It’s ok to order 18 year olds to do it for them though because “that’s what’s right.”
Yeah, easy for them to say.
I wonder where they’ll draw the line. By the same arguments we should be drafting women and children old enough to hold a gun.
They should all fight and die for their country shouldn’t they? Everyone owes their life to the arbitrary governing body of the region they were born in. They own you and should be able to send you to your death. How liberal.
You think it’s not absolutely obvious to all of us that no one should be conscripted to fight if they don’t want to? Genocidal Russia decided that wasn’t an option. Save your grief for them.

Russia is a fascist state under the thumb of the yeltsin/Putin regime. Yeltsin have been sent there by the US.
