Putin vs. Next Gen

Dear President Putin,

As someone who, at the age of eighteen, patriotically turned in his draft card at the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War, let me tell you that you have just made a colossal blunder by trying to force thousands of young Russian men to fight in Ukraine. Believe me: a quarter of a million young Russians dodging the draft by crossing the border is just the beginning. Protests are spreading from St Petersburg to Dagestan.
