Other way around my hexbear account is an alt of this one

Its forcing pro-fed russians to fight

They arent. ukraine has a large russian minority especially in the east, hence them trying to secede from ukraine and join russia

Sorry people here are really hostile. Yeah you must be a citizen of a nation if you want a passport from them.

Russians with ukrainian passports, like I said 5 comments ago.

If you had a point, then that would be Ukraine forcing Russians to fight for Ukraine, which isn't true.

But it is? They are literally forcing people no matter their ethnicity or conscientous objections to fight?

Who is talking about captured russians, Ukraine is forcing russians living in ukraine with ukrainian passports to fight for them, regardless of whether they want to or not. Im baffled at why this is considered controversial its not secret... Maybe underreported, but it seems people here have really bought into the good vs bad narrative anyway and anyone who dares criticize ukraine or st. Zelensky must be a russian troll. The implication being that russian opinions are to be dismissed because of the nationality of the person?

That ukraine is forcing people to serve in its armed forces? I thought that was common knowledge.

Its also what Ukraine is doing right now, so not sure you what your point is.

welcome to TERF island

Hindenburg reaches across the aisle for bipartisan legislation 2024 edition

One of the most frustrating things about academic Marxism is that it hypothesizes that “capitalists” do things like figure in the reproduction cost of labor.

It doesn't? It never postulates that capitalists actively control the economy or do more than the bare minimum, on the contrary that they are bound to the laws of the market is one of the main points of marxism. That the cost of replacement factors into the cost of labor power is like the cost of replacement factoring in for any other commodity on the market. I highly suggest you read the booklet I linked, it's very short.

Fuck off fascist

In this case that the cost of replacement of labor power factors in to the wage a company has to pay in order to maintain production.

The manufacturer who calculates his cost of production and, in accordance with it, the price of the product, takes into account the wear and tear of the instruments of labour. If a machine costs him, for example, 1,000 shillings, and this machine is used up in 10 years, he adds 100 shillings annually to the price of the commodities, in order to be able after 10 years to replace the worn-out machine with a new one. In the same manner, the cost of production of simple labour-power must include the cost of propagation, by means of which the race of workers is enabled to multiply itself, and to replace worn-out workers with new ones. The wear and tear of the worker, therefore, is calculated in the same manner as the wear and tear of the machine.

edit: replaced quote with an imo more fitting quote from the same book.

Although the Israeli army’s Conscience Committee can decide to allow exemption from military service, this is usually granted only to those conscientious objectors who refuse to serve on religious grounds. However, according to the UN Human Rights Committee, no discrimination is permitted “among conscientious objectors on the basis of the nature of their particular beliefs” - i.e. whether they are religious or otherwise. Even though Israeli law does allow for exemption on grounds of pacifism, the army’s Conscience Committee frequently rejects pacifists' cases. The authorities deny objectors the possibility of performing alternative civilian service. Conscientious objectors in Israel can be convicted of and imprisoned for the same “offence” repeatedly. In 2003, the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention said that this practice flouts the rights of conscientious objectors under international human rights standards which prohibit “double jeopardy”.

Your point was already refuted in the article from amnesty I linked.

Amazing to see marxist theory in action like that. It's so on the nose too, if that was in a novel it would look rather shoehorned in.

Concientious objectors are jailed in Israel. This isn't anything new, see here for another case https://www.amnesty.org.uk/urgent-actions/conscientious-objector-detained-israel

It's tempting to think it's like building a house, and if you have the blueprints & wood, it'll just be fast and easy. Everything will go on schedule

it never goes according to schedule eve if there is blueprint & wood
