They would be dumb if they didn’t do that. Did anyone expect something else?

Well, also the people that are suddenly drafted to fight will lose a lot. For a lot of people it’s a question to choose between:

• Do I fight for my country (that I don’t necessary align with)
• Do I wait until the enemy gets here and drafts me to fight for him

And while the first option is not great, the second one sounds a lot worse.

Been there. It wasn’t as crowded as “first” protest that was over a month ago, but there was nice energy today. Although one might argue these protests aren’t changing much, there are still people that are not giving up and it’s great seeing that.
