    Yeah sure, the rich can pay their way put of doing their civic duty. What a ghoulish perspective.

    Yes those who are rich and are disabled men with heart disease, spinal injuries, epilepsy, autism, and other illnesses and disorders can pay their way out of following orders such as “orders to invade Russia”

    The others are left on their own and needs to hide like criminals and attempt to escape the country and government mobsters

      I don’t get what you are trying to argue. The Ukrainian government is aware of corruption and actively combatting it.

      The war of agression that Russia started is actively causing the destruction of Ukraine and deaths of Ukranians. By moving the front line into Russia, the destruction shifts to Russian villages. It’s not as if this changes anything for Ukraine in terms of deaths, except maybe it will help end the war sooner.

        the destruction shifts to Russian villages.

        Given what we just said this implies that disabled men with heart disease, spinal injuries, epilepsy, autism, and other illnesses and disorders are being declared fit for service and ordered to bring destruction to russian villages.

        except maybe it will help end the war sooner.

        How do you think shift destruction to russian villages will help end the war sooner?

          Gee, I dunno, let’s ask Germany how the Soviet advance into Germany helped end the war faster lmfao

          Hitting someone until they stop hitting you is a good way to end an altercation, especially since the aggressor clearly won’t use words to end it.
