President Joe Biden’s administration is urging Ukraine to quickly increase the size of its military by drafting more troops and revamping its mobilization laws to allow for the conscription of troops as young as 18.
EDIT:
I’m not going to bother. You believe that all it takes is for everyone in the world to reject war, with no viable plan instead of hand waiving “education will fix things”. Wishful thinking at best, forced indoctrination at worst.
No shit there would be no war if everyone was against war.
Tell you what, you manifest your dream with the Russians first to get the invading forces to be against war and I’ll take you seriously. Until then, the real world will go on, with or without you.
No it’s not easier than everyone making the right decision for anything else, but it is the right decision.
I’m going to propose something.
The most idealistic, “right” decision, done in the wrong context, is the wrong decision.
For example, let’s say all of Ukraine rejects war. They no longer resist Russia.
Did we save the world? No. That is appeasement, and that didn’t work out to well with Hitler.
Again. Prove the worth and viability of your ideas by encouraging the ones throwing the punches to reign it in first, before applying such lofty and naive ideals to those trying to defend themselves.

Yes the solution is to reject war.
No it’s not easier than everyone making the right decision for anything else, but it is the right decision.
You shouldn’t make excuses for people to kill each other, it’s the reason it keeps happening in a post scarcity world

Yeah everyone knows you can just appeal to warmongering fascists.
/S
Sounds less easy then everyone rejecting war.
But you can’t have “everyone” reject war without including warmongering fascists in the category of “everyone”.
Seeing as you acknowledge how difficult that is, are we on the same page about how unrealistic your original solution is?
