Based on the content of the op-eds they wrote? That's awful Or are you just referring to the more normal (yet still awful) concept of a draft?

- nozzlegear 2y agoThe US is not at war, isn't being invaded by an aggressive neighboring country, and doesn't have an active draft. That is the key difference that you're obtusely refusing to acknowledge here.
- andreygrehov 2y agoI never said the US is at war with anybody. I said: "that reminds me of what's happening in my hometown in Ukraine". > isn't being invaded According to the White House, there is an invasion: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-the-american-people-against-invasion/ https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/prot...
- dbmikus 2y agoThis is BS that Trump is making up so he can say the USA is at war and deport people without due process. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-judge-extends-block-trump-use-wartime-law-deportations-2025-03-28/ https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-judge-extends-block-trum...
- andreygrehov 2y agoYou can disagree with Trump as much as you want. There is an executive order signed by the President. None of those Reuters and the like explanations matter. Given the executive order is in place, it doesn’t matter who signed it. Since it’s coming from the White House, it’s perfectly valid to reference it.
- citizenkeen 2y agoExecutive Orders are not law.
- andreygrehov 2y agoYet they can be referenced as the official position of the government.
- sorcerer-mar 2y agoThe official position of one branch of our tripartite government.
- sorcerer-mar 2y agoPresidents can't declare war, so no, the US is not at war in either a technical legal sense nor in a practical sense. It's also not "an invasion" as per the Alien Enemies Act as clearly, Tren de Agua is not a government or a nation.
- andreygrehov 2y agoUkraine is not at war with Russia. Russia is not at war with Ukraine. Yet, Ukraine drafts its men like rats. But wait - I can’t reference information shared by the White House because it’s all BS? Look, I’m not saying an executive order is a law, but it’s also not a sticky note. And let’s be honest, a ton of illegals have been coming to the U.S. Trump’s executive order didn’t come out of thin air.

- andreygrehov 2y agoWell, if the night clubs are working, then what kind of a war is that? Obviously the video is just one of many others, eg it’s not limited to night clubs.
- aredox 2y agoThey are open for soldiers on official leave? But keep comparing being arrested by official police for draft dodging in the middle of a war for existence to sending secret hooded officers to arrest a brown-skinned scarf-wearing woman for supposedly antisemitism while your pal Boer Elon is doing Nazi salutes in public.
