      Slave to the state

      The best way to become a slave to a state is not to have a good defense. Just ask any neighbor af Russia.

        Brainless serving in an army is not defense. People can defend themself better when they are free not when they are forced to obey corrupted rulers orders.

          The step from “Denmark” to “Corrupted rulers” went a bit fast there.

          You are aware that Denmark allows political parties and movements to oppose conscription, and that anyone strongly opposed can emigrate and denounce their Danish citizenship? Nobody is preventing anyone from doing those things. If you don’t do them, you are implicitly accepting the social contract in the country.

      Have you ever been conscripted into a democratic army? I have been. We were very well taught which rights we have, what the rules of warfare are and when we are oblieged to disobey an order.

      It’s true, a conscript has less freedom than a not conscripted citizen. But if you really believe a conscript (in a democratic army) is even remotely comparable to a chattel slave, you should try reality instead delusional ideology for a change.

        Since you like it so much you should go ahead and try some reality in the ukrainian front, perhaps in the russian side where conscript gets send to.

        Slaves are very well taught which rights they have too, when you don’t have many it’s easy to teach.
