    And ALL of that you’re fine with.

    Please show me exactly where in my comment I said I’m fine with the actions of the Russians, or said Ukraine draft is worse than Russias war crimes…

    Oh you can’t? Because I never said anything remotely close to that and you’re just putting words in my mouth because you’re a simpleton that can only think in strict binaries and just doesn’t have the braincells required to comprehend any kind of nuance.

    So let me try and make this easy for you. Pointing out Ukraine is doing a bad thing does not mean Russia isn’t also doing a much worse thing.

    If society really has no right to an individual, then taxes and welfare should also be abolished.

    Again, no nuance. Like some part of you must be aware that there’s a fundamental difference between paying taxes and being forced to lay down your life. Like in your black and white world does the existence of taxes justify the state to just murder whoever it doesn’t like? Because if they have a right to the individual to force them to pay taxes, then surely that’s the exact same as just murdering whoever they don’t like right? Definitely no shades of grey between those two things.

      My entire comment was about how you missed the point.

      I then came up with a ridiculous comparison, to illustrate how ridiculous your comparison was.

      So let me reiterate my point. Is it worse to have a draft or is it worse for civilians to be murdered by the, potentially, millions. Including things like elderly and infirm being tortured before they’re executed, and children being shipped hundreds or thousands of miles from their home to be the toy of an oligarch.

      Ukraine cannot get enough troops with volunteers. If you were leading the country, what would you do? Order a draft or let an invading military run free through your country, raping, pillaging, and murdering.
