Talk:Conscription in Russia

message: There must be some sort of resistance or at least opposition, whether organized or not. I know there was a certain amount even in the USSR back in the 80s during the Afghanistan occupation. Cgingold (talk) 23:04, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  They're all in prison (up to 2 years, about a thousand people per year) or avoiding it in other ways. If you look at Ukraine you'd see that 55% of people ignored the law of mandatory conscription, times has changed, people are being more informed about politics BS and have freedom attitudes, Russia isn't much different from Ukraine imo.

message: "Muslims, Finns and members of other racial or religious minorities were generally exempted from conscription" -- However, Jews were NOT exempted... AnonMoos (talk) 23:04, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:   Misleading sentence about Tsarist times 

message: Why is it that this article is named Conscription? Indeed, in the wider context of mainstream news media, the term of conscription is used consistently. Yet, countries such as Great Britain, Germany, & Netherlands, get to call their conscription National Service. They were and are accorded that respect in the mainstream news media. Why not Russia? After all, as per the article, Russia demands just twelve months of service from its youth. Whereas the other nations demand two years.
 I cannot see this as anything other than discriminatory propaganda. DieselEstate (talk) 05:42, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
