I do not see compulsory military service as forced labour, not by a long shot.
performing labour or 6 months of jail does sound completely unforced
A country that offers equal rights, universal healthcare and free education for all citizens, amongst many other tax-paid services.
i am so glad that you have all of that
If you do not see your own country worth serving, I feel sad for you
i said nothing about whether i see my own country as worth serving, but your pity is appreciated
I would gladly give my life to protect mine
and youll continue to have the option to do so regardless of whether your government continues to threaten its citizens into doing so
the system for who is required to participate has practically never been fair and equitable, jury duty is not comparable to military service, and forced labour is slavery
civil jury duty is a really weird example to use anyway, since civil jury trials are practically non existent outside the USA
forced labour is slavery
maybe folks would sign up to protect their country if they thought it deserved to be protected, or was doing anything for them
just out of curiosity, when will killing these guys be considered self defense
their games have featured modding on both playstation and xbox in some capacity
but yes, its also nonsense
It’s pretty clear you somehow counted Ukraine being invaded by Russia as reason for Ukraine to not oppose the murderous embargo on Cuba
thats funny, ‘it being pretty clear that i meant russia’ is a weird reason for thinking i meant cuba
It’s pretty clear you somehow counted Ukraine being invaded by Russia as reason for Ukraine to not oppose the murderous embargo on Cuba, unrelated country on the other side of the world.
currently relying on military aid from the US government to deal with an ongoing invasion might be a reason to abstain from voting against an embargo being upheld by the US government
‘the other US vassals’ are generally not currently relying on military aid from the US government to deal with an ongoing invasion
i figured that was pretty clearly what i was talking about, what with it being the literal topic of the conversation:
They’re receiving a lot of military support from the US, so it’s not surprising that they’d at least be cautious about taking a position that might harm ties with the US.
i can appreciate that third parties can only become mainstream if folks vote for them while they arent, and that its perfectly possible that there will never be a ‘right’ time to vote for them
even if you dont think its worth it now, theyre at least using their vote to improve things long term
can you explain in detail how you came to the conclusion that i meant ‘by cuba’, because im genuinely interested
how many of those are currently suffering an invasion
unless youre actually voting for a third party, not voting for the shinier turd is still a worthless position that does not improve anything
hollywood and americas massive industry has effectively given it a chokehold on western culture, to the point where western culture practically just means ‘cultures that take their cue from the usa’
that makes sense for a country where the few black folks that did live there were usually not exactly living it up
it hasnt become synonymous, certain people want to make it seem like theyre synonymous
taking sides is fine and even right, but that needs to come with recognition and acceptance of that side’s problems
do you have one for EU folks? want to donate, but donating to an actual trustworthy org is hard enough when there isnt this much misinformation

sorry, but arent the crimes of their fathers the sole basis for our worshipping them, allowing tbem political power and sending the pricks millions upon millions of tax payer pounds?
you dont reckon its a little disingenuous to complain about people shitting on their heritage when said heritage is the entire argument for their existence
