    Western libs always say that the war must go on because "that's what the Ukrainian people want."

    But how do they even know this? There's no elections and people clearly don't want to be conscripted. (The response rate for conscription letters is very low.)

    Even by liberal standards this is bullshit, isn't it?

    Recruiters have confiscated passports, taken people from their jobs and, in at least one case, tried to send a mentally disabled person to military training, according to lawyers, activists and Ukrainian men who have been subject to coercive tactics. Videos of soldiers shoving people into cars and holding men against their will in recruiting centers are surfacing with increasing frequency on social media and in local news reports. (NYT)
