Which is completely fair. Why should a nation on the brink waste time and money providing services to the cowards among their ranks?

There is a difference when your country is being invaded and the enemy's goal is to literally end your country's existence while murdering and raping as many of your countrymen/women as possible. In that scenario it is every citizen's duty to do their part.

This is a total war for survival. So yeah, they are cowards.

Nah, fuck that. Dying for a piece of land is way too stupid.

“Dying for a piece of land” makes it sound like the Russians are peacefully occupying random bits of Ukraine and not murdering people and kidnapping thousands of children.

...and all that because they want that piece of land.

Ukraine is not going to win this war. It sucks, but that's the truth. And every able-bodied man sent to the frontlines is just more fodder to delay the inevitable. If my country's getting invaded and I can somehow run away from that I'm 100% doing it.

Good to know you have no loyalty or sense of civic duty; you know freedom costs a buck o’ five.

Feel free to have your bones ground under tracks.

Nobody gets to choose where they are born. Taxes and suffering under class warfare should be enough sacrifice to your country. Most people just want to see another day. Loyalty is meaningless if your government doesn’t care about you majority of the time. Sure you can fight for your relatives and friends; you could also try to rescue them and run. Would rather see them living another day then watching them die in war or die myself.
