Ever heard of "solidarity"? You can't just live safe while your countrymen risk their lives to defend you. If you don't like it, you have plenty of time to emigrate in peacetime.

If shit hits the fan, it's too late. YOU made the choice to stay in a country where you were obligated to defend you neighbour if called upon. You can't reap the benefits of collective protection and responsibility and then run off when it's time to step up and do the dirty work.

Yeah ever heard of solidarity? Fucking up people daily like governments and politicians do it's the opposite of that

YOU made the choice to stay in a country

So if you were a 17 years old russian you would buy a one way plane ticket and leave the country?

Sound like you are putting the blame on people rather than the corrupted politician criminals responsible for all of this.

I don't see Russia, or other authoritarian countries mentioned in the thread I'm responding to. This is about conscription in a democratic country where only adults are conscripted.
