[@beatricet5682]

My Dad was 17 when he was conscripted into Hitler's war. Like the man in this story, he also didn't want to kill anyone or be killed. He fled Czechoslovakia and went across the border to Austria, where he literally starved for weeks. It was a scary time for him, but it was also the best decision he ever made. A few years later he was given the opportunity to move to Australia. He wanted to get as far away from the war as possible. He lived peacefully in Australia till his passing at 93 years of age. 🙏 If you're a male citizen of Russia, RUN! Get out of Russia as fast as you can. Live a peaceful life away from dictators like Putin.

This is definitely gonna hit Russia hard in all the right places for them to stop their tyranny. The drafting range for wars are those that make up half if not most of the working class. If half of the working class flees, Russia won't be able to draft enough soldiers and a bunch of soldiers have fled and surrendered already. And if Putin tried to draft his police and security to the front lines that could mean dire straints on prisons and he would leave himself vulnerable. He is tearing apart his own country, and for what? The whole world is against him at this point, he must have an unholy amount of pride to continue like this.

Every country does what Putin is doing weither it was protect the oil reserves in Kuwait when Bush Sr was president . or the french's ability to repay loans to the US in WW1 when Woodrow Wilson was president and yes, that is the real reason America joined in as many businesses were worried the French would fail and not repay thier debts. Leaders fight wars to gain benefits , we are sending aid to Ukraine because we want them to fight Russia and weaken them not because politicians really care if Ukraine exists or not, after all a African country fell this week and most people have no idea what country it was and who toppled it.

[@jus_sanguinis]

That guy is wrong. Here some facts. 1) Starting from the 2014 there is forced mobilisation in Ukraine (also protests against it and evasion, people mass fleeing the country) with a ban of men age 18-60 to leave the country. 2) Donetsk and Lugansk self proclaimd republics have had volunteer armies until the February 2022. 3) Untill now Russia operated in Ukraine with pretty small (about 150 thousands) volunteer army. Russia*s and her allied armies about three times smaller than Ukranian mobilezed army. Thats why Russia proclaimed mobilisation now. And its not just about the size of the army, but also about the speed of replenishment of losses. Ukraine can mobilize a few thousands of new soldiers in a couple weeks, while Russia will replenish this number of military contractor servicemen much longer. Small volunteer army is good against savages with machete and rusty AK-47, but not against big mobilized army with a bunch of weapons. 4) The protesting people and people who are leaving Russia are mostly an opposition. They are mostly liberals, and liberals + nationalists + jihadis if we are talking about ethnic minorities like Dagestanians. But as I see, the protests are not so numerous, neither the number of fleeing people. Its not like in the US during the Vietnam war, for example, where the protests and migration were huge. Some small regions of Russia already said they mobilized the required number of soldiers. I think to mobilize 300 thousand men wouldnt be a problem for Russia.
