Please bring some sane European leaders with you too so it becomes obvious how alone the US is in its position here.

How do you screw up the most basic fundamental things like window management and a basic file explorer, I’ll honestly never understand.

$500 billion in raw earth sounds like one heck of a logistical challenge.

This is where the fundamental disagreement lies then. The reality is that the people are going to be forced against their will to either give up their land and culture to Russia or have a portion of their citizens forced to fight to defend the existence of Ukraine and the self determination of the rest of the citizens. I think your view here is too black and white to accurately capture the reality of the situation.

Are you in favour of an independent Ukraine if they must use conscription to maintain that independence? I think that’s the key issue and why that statement seemed somewhat empty to me.

Wait, are you against conscription or specifically conscription in Ukraine? I was drawn in by your post title because I think it’s actually an interesting discussion about the implications of a fully volunteer military vs conscription and the societal implications. If you just want to complain about Ukraine having conscription while their survival is on the line…I don’t know what to tell you.

Maybe condemn Russia for their brutal invasion, support giving Ukraine everything they need to win including foreign boots on the ground (which Russia has already done) and the war can be ended as quickly as possible with minimal amount of conscription. Your narrow lens on Ukraine here makes it hard to assume your wanting to discuss the issue in good faith.

I guess their bot detection must have figured out that you’re a human.
