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 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.
The choice isn’t yours when there’s a draft. If it’s so noble to die defending your state (not people, state) then it should be no problem getting enough volunteers.
Forcing people to fight for their government is wrong. Maybe some are ok with surrender over risking their life, maybe some are staunch pacifists, maybe some feel their lives won’t change very much under new leadership and would prefer to live.
Sending teens into a bloodbath by force isn’t good no matter how you try to spin it. Yes the alternative might be losing, but that is their choice.
You should go fight, they’re accepting foreign volunteers. You go do what you’re asking these children to do. It’s the right thing, isn’t it?
Same bullshit Kremlin copy pasta. Russia is the only country to blame for their imperialistic war, where they are murdering Ukrainians and stealing their land.
You haven’t answered why you aren’t going to go fight
Maybe we’ll meet on the battlefield ;)
Hey by the way did you hear Hamas forces people to stay in unsafe parts of Gaza as human shields. It’s so evil when the government forces civilians into danger when they could be escaping.
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.
How do you not understand that Russia has invaded their country and is murdering them and stealing their land?
If someone broke into your house and was about to shoot you and your teenage daughter and wife were in the other room would you be like “yeah I don’t believe in violence”? What good would that do?
Yes the state you were born in is your family and you must defend them like your daughter.
The political body that happened to be in control by force of the territory where your parents fucked owns your soul and can send you to your death when you have barely finished puberty and aren’t even done developing your brain.
The arbitrary social construct of “the state” is a higher form of power that not only can (in the ability sense) but morally must order children to die to defend itself.
Anyone trying to take their family and leave the warzone is a criminal and must be killed. That land must be defended, those politicians have graciously let you live for too long.
You go fight and die in Ukraine, if enough of you did they wouldn’t be sending their kids. You go and do it, I’ll pay for your plane ticket.
The worst part, is that the barbaric warmongers are absolutely conscripting and coercing their population to go kill people.
Clearly, the “Z nazis” are not to be convinced to simply stop throwing their lives away for a dictator. They actively recruit and reward people who revel in murder, and celebrate them as national heroes for their schoolchildren to look up to.
I’ve been to war already so you’re barking up the wrong tree.
And no, the Russians have been caught raping, murdering, and pillaging. This isn’t just some fight over who controls the region where the people never see a difference.
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.
The warmonger is the one invading Ukraine.
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

Same bullshit Kremlin copy pasta. Russia is the only country to blame for their imperialistic war, where they are murdering Ukrainians and stealing their land.
Do you support Russia?
Yes everyone you don’t like is a Russian agent.
You haven’t answered why you aren’t going to go fight
Maybe we’ll meet on the battlefield ;)

Ok lol you go enlist then if you’re so comitted.
In fact if you support a draft we should force you to enlist against your will
Same old bullshit copy pasta from the Kremlin.
How do you not understand that Russia has invaded their country and is murdering them and stealing their land?

Aw shucks, is that all it takes? How’d we overlook that?? We’ll get cracking on that right away.
In the meanwhile it makes sense for a country being invaded to do whatever it can for self preservation, especially in a defensive manner.
How exactly do you propose we get everyone to reject war?
Because Ukrainians in general didn’t want the war to begin with.
education is what makes people not fall for dumb war propaganda
Congratulations, you won the Miss Universe title with winning phrase “I want the peace in the world”.
“Dumb war propaganda”
You do realize Russia made the decision to invade the land of Ukrainian people, right?
What do you think happens if Ukraine doesn’t fight back?
I agree with you 100%.
The worst part, is that the barbaric warmongers are absolutely conscripting and coercing their population to go kill people.
Clearly, the “Z nazis” are not to be convinced to simply stop throwing their lives away for a dictator. They actively recruit and reward people who revel in murder, and celebrate them as national heroes for their schoolchildren to look up to.
So…what are the defenders to do?
I would let the people who want to fight do so.
Forcing 18 year olds to kill against their will is so insanely fucked up.
You live till 18 and then die for the glory of a leader you didn’t agree to fight for. The second they grow up they’re told to die
Somebody hasn’t paid attention to what happens in Russian Occupied Zones. They aren’t fighting for Zelensky.
They are fighting for pride and the right to control the politics in the place they live.
None of the reason has anything to do with the ethicality of forcing people to die the second they stop being children legally.
Lol let’s make you fight against your will then since you seem so eager
I’ve been to war already so you’re barking up the wrong tree.
And no, the Russians have been caught raping, murdering, and pillaging. This isn’t just some fight over who controls the region where the people never see a difference.
