      people that wouldn’t make that connection for it basically just cause suffering for no reason

      Yeah, sure, not every worker suffering under capitalism becomes a socialist either. But if everyone has to serve customers at some point, everyone will be a bit nicer to customer service workers, you know?

      I would hope the draft wouldn’t be a problem or a necessity in a socialist country because most people in it would be aware that the collapse or takeover of it would be a very bad thing.

      That's a thought contradictory to the one above - is everyone conscious of the condition of their society or not? In a utopia, we'd all know when to fight a war and when to boycott one. But I think even in a socialist society the average person would shirk responsibility if left to their own devices - or even if only a minority would shirk responsibility, you'd be creating inequality down the line if you allow that minority to escape paying the costs that everyone else is paying.
