    funny enough, this is the exact mindset I see here in Ukraine. People wanna fight till the "victorious end", but few wanna volunteer, and the most outspoken nationalists are usually abroad or avoiding service one way or another.

    The military is the fucking scourge of the civilized world it blows my mind more people don't understand this.

    The military has absolutely ruined the U.S. and now Europe wants to go down the same road.
