How do you make someone understand that being drafted by force and ordered to invade another country is not a good thing? (self.asklemmy)

Yeah, and that person, unlike me, is evil, because they are able to see human lives as pawns in a political game.

Uh, just to be clear, I'm not actually trying to sway you. Just pointing out to OP, and to you I guess since you're engaging, that when someone holds an "immoveable stance" as they themselves say, and aren't open to changing their views, it is highly unlikely one can convince them to change. Like, someone could up to you and say you're wrong and evil for your views but that probably isn't going to convince you, right?
