I asked it in question form because I was legitimately curious. Where do you plan to go while the world you leave behind devolves into an authoritarian hell? What other "modern western nation" would be left if Russia and/or China expands all the way across Europe as well as onto US Shores?

You don't have a second life to flee to if the west fails to defend itself.

I asked a legitimate question. I want to rationalize running away against a threat like that, I would never sell my soul to the military complex for anything other than necessity, but it absolutely doesn't make sense other than for selfish shortsighted cowardice.

Nah fuck ya’ll Ima sign up if we have an enemy worth fighting for the first time in my life.

Yet you say things like this.

Yes, because as I explained, running away against a threat like that doesn't make any sense. Did the sentence structure confuse you?
