Civil? You'll get none of that here. Everyone is a full on foaming at the mouth ideological warmonger.
Calling for countries to defend themselves against aggressive nations isn't warmongering, the warmongering is the invading land grabbing nations...
Fighting back against warmongers is human history, without it the whole planet would be under the occupation of a handful of warmongering countries..
 
Why the hostility Spadgers

I may come at this from a different direction than you (me arguing for peace, you arguing for continuation of the war) but there's no reason to hurl insults.

Let's keep this civil.
Unfortunately for you, Isidore, your reputation precedes your slithering posts.

You have gone straight for the playbook of your man, Goebbels, who said during the Nazi years.

"Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred."

Now anyone without a walnut between there ears or a Z tattooed on their forehead would be clear that Putin is the problem, Russia have invaded Ukraine and Ratsputin is a multi.

As is your MO, you have picked Zelensky as your target for hatred and are blanking Putin.

So forgive me you goosestepping weasil for calling out your very poor choice of subject to troll.

Story here about conscription avoidance in Ukraine....tbf, these lads must be looking at the fatality rate and thinking "eff that for a game of soldiers", so I wouldn't be too judgemental about them.


The deacon allegedly pocketed about $4,500 (£3,600) in bribes to certify that the departure of the men from the country was necessary for the diocese’s work in Europe. The SBU has seized the former deacon’s computers, mobile phones, sim cards and a sum of US dollars in cash. If convicted, he could face up to nine years in prison.

It is the latest in a series of corruption scandals over draft evasion in Ukraine. Last month, the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, fired every regional recruitment head in the country, citing endemic corruption in the apparatus.

In a further development last week, the Prosecutor General’s Office in Odesa revealed that the leadership of a regional police force had been assisting dozens of men in evading conscription.

As a result, the head of the military medical commission and two secretaries are under investigation for allegedly falsifying dozens of medical certificates to demonstrate the individuals’ unfitness for military service. Each certificate reportedly cost between $7,000 and $10,000.

During the first months of the war, as hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians signed up for volunteer battalions and to help the army in other ways, there was no great need to enforce mobilisation rules. Eighteen months into the war, with tens of thousands of casualties and many troops at the front weary and in need of rotation, the army has increasingly turned to mobilisation, often handing out call-up papers on the street.

Male Ukrainian nationals of conscription age are allowed to cross the border only if they are financially supporting three or more children under the age of 18, are single fathers of children under 18, or have children or are guardians of children with disabilities.

In many cities, Telegram channels offer people keen to avoid the draft information on where conscription officers have been spotted that day; several videos have gone viral of officers bundling men into vans. Many business owners report men unwilling to come to work, scared they could be conscripted if they leave the house.

For those with money, there have been plenty of opportunities to buy their way out of mobilisation, usually by purchasing a doctored medical certificate that provides an exemption from military service and allows them to leave the country. The price has ranged from a few hundred dollars at the beginning of the war to about $5,000 in Odesa, several people have told the Guardian.

Pipe down Himmler
 
It’s not even subtle anymore, the Jack Boot wearing creep.
I suppose if your were a neo-nazi alt-right type you may find it useful to try and shape the communication space through hiding amongst footy fans and the like and claiming to be the opposite. It is sad that it has come to this. The below is an article of such behaviour from Putin.
