This is real fascism at it finest.
Mobilising your population to fight for the survival of the country is fascism? You don't know what fascism is do you?
Such a you tube comment.....IE you have no idea what you are saying....Britain had Conscription ...Do you thus say the UK was facist.....
So who still believes Ukraine only lost 30,000 troops?
Losses in the millions according according to polish general
@@ArthurMorgantherealone Wonder what that General was smoking.
Who believes might is right?
Exactly they have no tactical warfare skills. When was the last time they were at war? Nobody is trained, you can't just train people in a few weeks to fight tactically.
Both russia and ukraine are increasing number of troops deployed, its just that, it was 200-300k troops on each side, now its close to a million
If your country does not allow you to leave, you are not a citizen. You are a prisoner.
Or just a citizen of a country fighting desperately for its survival
@@Nate-dv5dp You don't need to fight for your survival if Zelensky allowed you to go live in the west.
@@scaw29West does not want cowards. If adult Ukrainian men run away from Ukraine to the west, then the west will return them to ukraine.
And if a citizen flees his country when the country needs him, he is called a coward.

Ukraine urgently needs more peace 😑
Ukraine needs more NATO, to insure this peace, since it does not have nukes anymore.
Russia should leave. Then there would be peace
There wouldn't be peace as long as Cocainsky still in power
You can take your flag with peace sign and go into russian trenches. Tell us how it was if return
@@IrrationalCharmUkraine belongs to Rusia not to the west
I'd rather live in jail and not die.
Good luck with that.
Wow you live in Ukraine for nothing and no prices for anything haha good luck with that 😂 .
That's why they are taking away rights
In gulag?
they drafted the prisoners too
Poor Men , Why don't the women also sign up in times of gender equality ?
The state doesn't force them
😂😂😂😂 should I tell you how they are?
They prefer to get money (~$378 000) for their KIA husband instead?
@@delta_glider4362 U GOT MORE INFO ON THAT?
I think there’s something like 80,000 women in service.

Feminism died naturally here
It never existed here.
@@ZDriver1996 facts
Кто про что, а вшивый про баню.
А если серьёзно, у это йстраны проблемы посерьёзнее, чем отсутствие феминизма
The kurdish YPJ were all female unit that fought against ISIS a decade ago. The unit had +24,000 soldiers in 2017. It has its roots based on Jineology, a form of feminism from Kurdistan Workers Party. Israel has mandatory conscription both for male and female
Ukraine was a part of Russian empire, that was a first country in the world that gave women the same level of education and capabilities as Men
USSR went even further by pushing image of working women above male war veterans
Despite that feminism still exist in Ukraine, Despite Ukraine being one of the only countries that doesn't force women to serve in a army alongside Men
This war is a meat grinder. Are they sure that 500,000 men is enough?
According to this analyst “When the Russians conscript convicts, it's considered using cannon fodder, but if Ukraine does the same, it isn't labeled as cannon fodder”
HYPOCRISY
I recalled once a documentary about the "soldier of Putin "whose children went to a camp to learn military instructions as a summer camp. The camp was meant to teach them to become shock troopers, and it is disturbing to know the fact, that the shock troopers are an assault team whose mission is to charge to the defensive lines of the enemy. Even in the most successful operations, the casualty rates are simply so high. In any way , both Ukraine and Russian were bound to be on a constant war . Peace was really never an option.
Orc Conscripts with a few weeks training and sent straight to the front lines aka cannon fodder.
Ukrainians actually train their Conscripts for several months.
Big difference
@@ChuckAmadi But they don't have enough time to practically turn those conscripts into a formidable force. It takes time to have combat ready groups.
@@ChuckAmadiwhere did you pull that piece of BS from? Even with their "training". They're still getting creamed. Only fools can't see that Ukraine has no chance of winning this war.🤦🏿♂️
No that is not true it all depends how you send your man into battle
Why do they need more men? Zelensky said, only 30.000 died?
Zelensky should go and fight in the front. He has been wearing that military T-shirt everyday since the war started.
Yeah that good idea what the point fighting for free then 😂.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Has he even ever fired a rifle in anger?
Going to war is not for actor like Zelenskyy
@@ahmadseerat964😂 nailed it
conscription = slavery
No it doesn’t.
Being invaded by Ruzzia = slavery.
Do you have any other ideas to solve the issue?
Over 500,000 ruSSian orks dead and wounded.

Ukraine is losing.
They can't win
The sooner they come to terms the less they will lose
And women still believe they have it harder
They lost 31k soldiers, and winning. Why need half million more?
lmao i hope this is satire 💀
What kind of motivated people can you get by forced sign-ups? And what kind of democracy is this?
Every democracy requires registration ..same in the USA.
It was the Romans who originally came to the conclusion that an all volunteer professional army fights better than one made of conscripts
But at some point war drives most nations to the point that they need bodies more than willing participants
This can happen anywhere.
Democracy coming soon to you 😅
@@realnapster1522 I wouldn't fight someone else's war. No point in people dying to make politicians rich.

Few months?? They need a year to be ready

Why do they need new soldiers? They just have 31k casaulties right? And they destroyed 500k Russians so why do they need soldiers?

“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” - Voltaire once said.
Putin is committing both.
The proof of this is evident on RT.
Why do they need 500,000 soldiers when they have only lost 31,000? Why are the journalists so quiet?
I believe Ukraine had a bigger army by the summer than all the Russian soldiers engaged in Ukraine put together so far. A lack of Ukraine men cannot therefore be the result of Russians using their soldiers as a cannon fodder.
Half a million man represents between 1 and 2 % of prewar population at the minimum. To put it in perspective, that's more than Britain lost during the entire WW2.
You can't just talk "needs" half a million men. There comes a time when you call it quits. And for us to facilitate some arangement instead of cheering a new batch of men to trenches.
At the minimum, would you even care to listen what Putin has to offer? Because neither Minsk 1, Minsk 2 or Istanbul was that bad. Certainly compared to the current going.
And can you trust Putin to keep his end of the bargain after he has broken every agreement made to date? Seeking an agreement with Putin is fantasy and fairy tales for the delusional
"neither Minsk 1, Minsk 2 or Istanbul was that bad" Thats one of the sadest Things, they sacrafice them selfs for worse post War Conditions
Why only men , where are the women? Why feminist dont protest against mans rules? equal rights - equal fights
Because it happens that many married women have young children. Who will take care of them and feed them?.
@@loantran-thanh7795Grandmothers will fool

Go to war or no right ,we are we supporting here ? Forcing people to fight is a war crime
If not worth your life then why live there if Ukraine is so weak or forced to fight for free That's why you got fight back not for Russian for your own good and you probably still let them do it to you .
This is not fair and at the same time it is discrimination against women why only men ???
Think of all the Men that are left scarred and disfigured from this war. What will happen to them? How will they live after? The Politicians don't care especially in Ukraine.
Ask the obvious dudes - if Ukraine needs 500,000 new soldiers - what happened to the 500,000 if formerly had?
There is something very un-European in this ''lets all die, no matter what'' -attitude... This is not the ''never again'' motto i was taught.......Clearly a hidden hand wants this conflict to escalate all the way to open WWIII... I hope cooler heads prevail, peace must be made at all costs; not pursuit of military victory
Ww3 would end in nuclear war…and no winner…😢😢
peace cannot be made when the democracy itself is being attacked it's why when the time comes it's our duty to protect it for the ones after us
Search Bilderberg 2012 + "Putin" Daniel Estulin, the foremost (non-member) expert on Bilderberg, reported in June 2012 that the “top headache” for the Bilderberg participants at that May 2012 meeting was Russian President Vladimir Putin because of his “opposition to war in Syria and Iran,” his “belligerence with respect to U.S. bases encircling Russia,” his “insistence on maintaining state sovereignty intact,” and his plans for another natural gas pipeline to Europe (South Stream) that “could turn into a major victory for Russia” at the expense of competing plans (the Nabucco pipeline) backed by Bilderberg members."
How do you view this "never again" principle? Surrender as soon as you are attacked?
Zelinks kept telling lies to his own people that it's all good on the frontline. This is just the result of it and the corruption that prevails in Ukr.
And those lies were repeated in the West: "Ukraine is winning"; "Russia is running out of ammo"; "Russian soldiers are drinking from puddles"; "Ghost of Kyiv" etc.

“The Ukrainians are losing this war. They are missing Over 10 million people. I estimate that the losses [of Ukrainian soldiers] should be counted in the millions, not hundreds of thousands. There are no resources in this country, there is no one to fight.” - Rajmund Andrzejczak, a Well-known Polish general
That the vast majority of Ukraine's 11 million males aged 18 to 60 on New Year's Day 2022 don't believe that it's worth fighting for informs my opinion of future welfare/aid. To be clear, it is their right to decide that Ukraine isn't worth it, but that will definitely inform my opinion
Well then if Russia wins then they would either have to leave or become Russian
Your kremboss decides your opinion
@@anthonyhulse1248 for someone who’s seemingly lived a long life, you seem so eager to deny young men in Ukraine that right. It’s very repulsive.
@@invadingomen6826young and old Ukrainian men and women have the right as a people not to be invaded by a so-called neighbor.
With that right comes civic responsibilities.

Try applying that right in Ruzzia.

they learn from their eastern neighbor.. lol
Desperate situations = desperate measures.
Ukraine seeks more men to send to the meat grinder.
What happened to human rights for men? How about conscript the women?
I am surprised to see how western man talk about this theme. You will not see a comment like this in Ukrainians and Russians media. Men in this countries don't cost themselves
I had to laugh when the guy said that they been waiting if its like this how will it be in the army!! All I can say is "Welcome to the Army" for anyone who has never been in the army! Lol you will soon find out what "Hurry up & Wait means!"
Russia has all the right to defend itself just like how The US defend itself in Vietnam, Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan
Open history book and read about all agreements. Russia don’t need any war on their territory anymore. if the provocateurs want war, they will get it, but now on their own territory.
@@shischkebab9827 stop the hypocrisy and double standard
@@shischkebab9827 If you open history and read all the agreements then it all starts after the Turkish/Cuban missile crisis where both sides begin to withdraw from each side, months of diplomacy went into allowing Germany to unify and join NATO, and then, the agreements begin to fall apart, as "Not an inch eastwards" became "the door to NATO is open" + heavy NGO funding.
This is NATO agression on Russia's border. Big difference.
@@BleedingSnow doesn't matter, the Soviet Union is no more and countries are free to join military alliances. Especially when Russia keeps invading countries without alliances.

You have to actually transition, otherwise to the front you go.
JohnK004 The transition is only self-perception.
Ukraine doesn't play this game. Every Ukrainian passport has either "male" or "female" in it.
Anyone here who doesn't believe conscription is fair has never had to live through a war, so take it from someone who grew up in a war zone, slept in a bomb shelter, and recently had to sit by and watch as 1,300 people were slaughtered for the crime of being born, conscription is the opposite of slavery, it is freedom, it is life. That said, in Israel, women are conscripted too.
USA and Ukraine will open a new front in Finland because Finland has 900 000 reservists under US command.
And the best part is ukraine government is planning to give training online via zoom app.

Why MEN only..? Where are the brave ukrainian feminists that cnn talks about.... are they only suitable for yelling in the tv studios...?
Exactly!!! The are “Brave” enough talking about equal pay etc so why not bring them to the front line so they can practice what they preach
They are fighting in Twitter front, reddit front, and onlyfans front, contributing for more clout.
They have never fought for equality, it was always more rights and privileges to women.
And the Titanic orchestra keeps dreaming of an unlikely victory for Ukraine.
I don't understand something. Western feminists are constantly complaining about how Afghan women aren't given basic rights and sufficient educational opportunities. Strangely, I don't hear them demanding that Ukrainian women should have equal opportunities to become infantry soldiers and enjoy equal opportunities to get killed in combat. Could it be that feminists only want women to have the benefits of equality, and none of the dangers or unpleasant responsibilities of it?
*They should offer all these men 10 Areas of free land each!*
Only men? So much for gender equity.
The problem is soldiers are visiting saint Peter faster than reinforcements can be trained
Ukraine needs a game changer.
Tougher recruiter means dragging men out of bidding and threw them into trenches in the front. Does that win wars ???
What consequences do they have dreamed up that could be worse than losing your limbs or dying? They’re delusional if they think men will sign up after those threats.
Get the women to fight, equal opportunities, right?
