I support #DraftDodgers if they're doing so because they don't believe in wars & want to work at creating more peace.
I don't support draft dodgers who don't work at creating peace & send others to sacrifice their lives for dirty, illegal wars - like the current PedorapistPOTUS.

Folk group #MitchellTrio, after Chad was replaced by #JohnDenver - sang the #PhilOchs #satire "Draft Dodger Rag" in 1968. This is one of the rare occasions where the Denver-led trio sang a song released by the original #ChadMitchellTrio.
The Chad Mitchell Trio released the song in 1964, one year before Phil Ochs put it on his own album. When the trio recorded the song, in addition to the original song that Ochs wrote, they also included a hilarious narrative intro to the song, as can be heard on their album, The Slightly Irreverent Mitchell Trio:
We've licked pneumonia and TB and the plagues that used to mock us.
We've got the onus on the sun; the smallpox cannot pock us.
We've found the antibodies for the staphylostreptococcus.
But ahh, the universal curse, from Vietnam to Korea,
The bug of bugs that bugs us still and begs for panacea.
Oh, who will find the antidote for - pentagonorrhea?
The above intro was written by master lyricist Yip Harburg, who wrote lyrics for songs like "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?"

Israeli army offers draft dodgers a "last chance" to return without penalties. 🪖✉️ The country faces a critical shortage of soldiers. #Israel #MilitaryService #DraftDodgers #SoldierShortage #UltraOrthodox
During the Vietnam War, Pierre Trudeau famously welcomed American draft dodgers and conscientious objectors to Canada. It created many (unique!) communities in this country that continue to be unique and valuable to this day.
Should Canada actively welcome American immigrants/refugees, or is it different this time?

#JimmyCarter's pardon for the more than 200,000 #VietnamWar #draftdodgers is a difficult record to beat.

Let's look at the character of these celebrity endorsements tho.
#Pedophiles and #draftdodgers like #TedNugent #ScottBaio #KidRock and the 'late great' #Epstein #endorse #Trump.
Nothing wrong there.
Nothing at all.
Lol.
#Ucraina: i #renitenti alla leva
La traduzione in inglese è:
Ukraine’s draft dodgers
Non ne parlano volentieri i media che hanno rielaborato il concetto di "guerra giusta" presentandoci un esercito di giovani ucraini pieni di #patriottismo pronti a combattere.
La realtà è che questi giovani per lo più cercano in tutti i modi di sottrarsi alla leva. Con conseguenze anche drammatiche.
