Pro-drafters are hilarious. Their only argument other than the incel "wHy DoNt U dRaFt tHe WoMeN tOO!??" is calling others naive because they don't want to be kidnapped and sent to die in a trench in the service of a failed state.

Oh no, the war is existential, you say? To "the state"? Waow, I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, getting kidnapped and killed is existential to me, which is much more important tbh

They think the "rights" of the ukrainian state trump the rights of the ukrainian people. Fascist mentality

[–] MoreAmphibians@hexbear.net 37 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

The UN has also determined that the right of territorial integrity of the Ukrainian state is more important than the right of self-determination of the Ukrainian people. So it's a consistent through line from libs to their beloved institutions.

[–] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 35 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They believe that if Ukraine and NATO don't destroy Russia right now Putin is gonna nuke Amsterdam or Berlin or wherever they live

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 32 points 2 weeks ago

Putin is gonna nuke Amsterdam or Berlin

Inshallah 🙏

[–] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Especially when you remember that what finally provoked the Russian intervention was the Ukrainian government doing an increasingly violent ethnic cleansing.

Fascist mentality

From the ur-fascist himself: "What is one life in the affairs of a state?" :no-fash:

[–] nasezero@hexbear.net 63 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

You can't live in a free country and not consider the cost of that freedom

The cost of that freedom: nazis dragging every adult male off the street and bussing them to the front lines of the meatgrinder to defend the government (also all nazis).

These kind of posters deserve a one way ticket straight to the barbara-pit, maybe with a quick pitstop to study their brains to figure out what the fuck is wrong with them and how their brains got dysfunctional enough to spout this kind of shit.

[–] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 34 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Of course, because freedom is a magic word that is immune from scrutiny, they never ask what freedom people are paying for. In this case it's the freedom to be part of what has to be the most exploited working class in Europe.

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 31 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

What the fuck do they mean "the cost of freedom" you're fighting over being ruled by NATO neoliberalism or Russian neoliberalism same-picture

at least some commenters made the point that a "nation" is abstract and "existential" threats to it are also abstract. as in, why the fuck should i give a shit unless that abstraction benefits me or the people i care about.

if a van with guys in it tries to snatch me off the street to die for the US, they'll never find those guys.

because i will roast and eat them in the ashes of the van. they will pay the price of my unabstract freedom.

im-vegan but i'd eat a military kidnapper xok-og

[–] LeninsBeard@hexbear.net 30 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Still vegan if you use the ethical framework of veganism. In fact you can argue it is super vegan because you are actively reducing harm.

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 16 points 2 weeks ago (7 children)

the ethical framework of veganism

I keep thinking about this and like idk I think whoever was elected to represent all vegans at the ecumenical council of veganism really fucked up deciding all honey isn't vegan. I'm pretty sure you could do some small scale bee keeping that is minimally harmful to the bees. And I keep thinking about how TECHNICALLY, if you WANNA GET INTO IT, any vegetable that needs to be pollinated by insects is "an animal product," requiring animal labor to exist. But obviously the Esteemed Council of Vegans decided to shrug about that and say "eh what can ya do" so like, I dunno, why not do the same thing for honey if produced in a way that doesn't explicitly harm the bees

Turning conscription officers into vegetables to make eating them vegan.

[–] worlds_okayest_mech_pilot@hexbear.net 38 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You're failing to understand that actually, the state is like the droid core ship in The Phantom Menace. When it's destroyed, all of the citizens immediately make a beeeeeewwww powering-down noise and drop dead on the spot

[–] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 27 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

These guys take the Putler thing very seriously. They think that if the Ukrainians lose Putin is gonna put every Ukrainian speaker into a death camp, then genocide every non-Russian European afterwards

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Imagine spending every waking moment (and possibly even in your dreams) obsessing over the moderate neoliberal president of Russia as some Stalino-Leninist commie bogeyman

Freedom is when you're dragged into a van and marched off to war

"if they don't get conscripted by the Ukrainians to fight the Russians now they will just be conscripted by the Russians when they invade Estonia later"

smuglord

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 40 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Why bother? Invading Estonia could be done with an army the size of a hockey team.

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

"Hey, thanks for hopping on a Zoom call with me. I'm an intern and my job is to invade Estonia. So basically, if you could just hand me the reigns to the country I'd really appreciate it. That way I can go home and play Fortnite after this."

That's a lot of people posting from their computers and not from a trench.

[–] egg1918@hexbear.net 49 points 2 weeks ago

I saw a video from the front in 2024, GoPro footage of an American mercenary. 2 Ukrainian soldiers were retreating toward him so he pointed his rifle at them and yelled to go back to their positions.

Without hesitating one of the ukranians shoots him twice and leave him in the dirt without breaking stride.

Just crossed my mind for no reason

[–] CocteauChameleons@hexbear.net 43 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I would never die for R*ddit and NATO

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 42 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Huh remember that time a bunch of people from Reddit volunteered for Ukraine, went there, and either died, or said "wait actually this sucks shit, I wanna leave?"

look liberal - if the russians win germany is next, okay?

GERMANY.

white people live there!

[–] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 33 points 2 weeks ago

Funny how liberals become the authoritarian parodies they accuse their enemies of being the minute reality intrudes on their fantasies

The philosophy of the solipsist and dilettante where everyone else is bound by responsibility to the capitalist state, except for themselves of course, because they believe cheerleading capitalism and war IS a sober responsibility all on it's own

A guilty system recognizes no innocents, indeed

Ain't that some shit

what happens after this? people in the thread saying this is done else most would chose jail, but like he can just refuse to hold a gun, to go through training. I assume jail is what follows if so?

[–] MoreAmphibians@hexbear.net 29 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The military guys can beat the shit out of them until they change their mind, get sent to the hospital, or die.

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 27 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If im ever in situation literally as soon as I have a loaded gun i'm killing everyone involved in this. Literally the only way they could prevent me from killing whoever is forcing me to do this would be to hogtie me and kick me out of a van onto the frontline

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 29 points 2 weeks ago

There's gotta be so many Pvt. Pyle stories we haven't heard about yet.

[–] agentant@hexbear.net 27 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It some cases they could threaten death. I think I would, in the case of the US, rather take the bullet than kill others for an Empire.

[–] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 26 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

take the bullet

I'd take a whole magazine and unload it into the nearest highest ranking officer

Officer fragging

[–] Mihr@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 2 weeks ago

The Events in Ukraine substack guy says a lot of these guys go AWOL and go back home first chance they get. There’s hundreds of thousands of desertions at this point.

What is stopping these reddit-logo users from dying for Ukraine if it's so glorious? Why aren't they on the next flight over?

If Putin got his way and got the band back together or whatever, I don't know Russian history, does the USSR come back? Are all the Baltic states like pieces of Exodia or what? What does he even want?

[–] MattEagle@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Putin represents the russian national bourgeoisie, which happily choked on western dong until it was fully obvious they were slated for elimination by the imperial bloc. At this point they are largely operating from a position of self-preservation and to this ends have allied themselves with China. A retransition to socialism is out of the question.
