It will never cease to shock me how enslaving men for military purpose is still considered an acceptable thing to do in developed countries. Always with the same excuse "It's necessary for the common good". More like "I won't be part of the conscripts going to the battlefield, but will benefit from it, so I'm ok with it".

Even pro-equality and "My body, my choice" people seem content to just pay lip service on the matter, if even that.

Equality, rights, and all of that tend to go away when Russia invades and occupies you. If you want to preserve that, along with your homes and the people you love, your options are to fight or flee. Life is imperfect, so the ways we have to address the problems life throws at us are imperfect.

It's the difference between having an ideology in Silicon Valley, and family in Sumy.

But there's a nuance, there's no even legal option to flee.
