Mandatory military service and nuclear weapons may be new ideas for Canadians, but other friendly democracies have been using these strategies for decades.
Yes, and I also think that it is wrong in all of those places, too. South Korea is one of the worst countries in the world in terms of the rights and equality of its citizens. It is also a turbo capitalist military state. Yes, I absolutely think it’s wrong there, too.
I’m an anarchist. I’m anti involuntary servitude in all it’s forms and I will never be a part of the military or perform duties in support of one. I would own a gun for my own sake, for the sake of my family and my community, but I will absolutely never be an agent of state violence. There is no room whatsoever for accommodation here. This would be a fucking nightmare scenario.
It’s a laudable philosophical stance, but if you’re eligible for conscription in whatever country you call home, you’d better have a fallback plan, a cache of supplies, and place to hide out before fleeing the country in times of war. Armies don’t fuck around with that shit, they’ll either jail or execute able-bodied people refusing military service. Best of luck to you.
Good thing our country doesn’t have a draft. And I will absolutely fight back with all that I have against one. If it comes to it they can shoot me. It’s get shot by fascists or get shot by authoritarians. I’ll live openly and proudly no matter who points a gun at me.
