    Yes, life sucks for countries who are invaded by nuclear powers.

    If only Russia would stop. Then Ukraine wouldn't need to defend itself.

    Defend itself with mentally handicapped people, women and the elderly?

    I love the new “nobody said war was fun” outfit on you. It looks way better than the “Ukraine is winning” one did.

    This was literally an option. Quit pretending a deal was never on the table.

    You don't think the US has done that? I'm pretty sure the vast majority of them want to help defend their country.

    And yes, mentally challenged people are taken advantage of and abused all the time. More so in times of war.

    I don't believe this is a goal, or that any Ukrainian is proud of it.

    Jesus man read what the fuck you just wrote. I’m not even going to attempt to put a thoughtful post together because there is just nothing to even say to this.

    I said war sucks. Russia should probably stop making war on their neighbors.

    I don't think Ukraine is deliberately targeting handicapped people.

    War sucks. Again, Russia should stop making war.

    Hah. I don't believe I ever claimed Ukraine was winning, although I do hope for them to do so.

    I wonder why you don't? What is it that makes you a cheerleader for Russia?

    Equally ridiculous question: what makes you cheerlead the forcing mentally handicapped people to fight in war? Why do you do that?

    Nobody is cheerleading that. That you are going there makes your position appear dishonest... Or at the very least, it makes one question your motives.

    Snatching people off the street and forcing them to fight a war is deliberate. They didn’t slip, fall and accidentally load people into a van and take them to the conscription depot.
    Just say you don’t care they are doing it. Wouldn’t it be easier than trying to make silly excuses? Just say you support it, because you do.

    I called it ridiculous. I was poking fun at him saying I’m “cheerleading” for Russia. It’s just the go-to criticism from boomer warmongers with no argument.

    Ukraine is defending their country. Anything other than supporting their goal of removing Russian forces from their borders is a very questionable position, IMO.

    Let’s stay on task. You support forced conscription and making mentally handicapped people fight in war. I know your position now. Thank you.

    Why can't you have this conversation without stooping to strawman tactics?

    If you can't support your point without such tactics it leads me to believe you don't have a point which is worthy of consideration.

    I've done my time in the Marine Corps, I have scars, and they are all on the front.

    I just figured you out. You don't know the differance between right and wrong.

    Forcing mentally handicapped people, women and people who are too old to fight is wrong. You and the other guy are defending it, and using vague justifications and lame platitudes to defend your positions (when you’re not avoiding it altogether).
    Plenty of people have served in the military. It doesn’t make all their bad takes correct. Your assertion that I’m somehow a coward because I’m not sitting on my couch cheerleading a contractor’s war is a fucking stupid one.
