According to witnesses, police divide those at the gym into citizens and non-citizens. Russians are taken to enlistment offices, where their military records are checked.
Non-citizens are accused of immigration violations and given a choice: deportation, or enlistment in the army, according to Current Time, an independent Russian news platform.

Deportation! Anything but joining the Russian army
I can’t help but wonder how long it will be before Trump deportation flights start landing in Russia instead of El Salvador.
How about Cuba? Is that close enough?
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The average maximum security prison holds 800-1200 prisoners. The largest, Angola, LA, holds over 8000.
Our most famous black site, Guantanamo Bay, located in CUBA (WTF?), currently holds about 120. They are now building a facility there, that will hold 30,000 prisoners. That’s nearly 4 times our largest prison, which is already about 8 times larger than average.
HitlerPig has already signed an Executive Order authorizing it, and has awarded a $249 million contract to construct it. Its scheduled to be finished in 2030, but it will no doubt be built in stages, so the first portions of it will probably be available by the end of 2025.
The question is: Who do they intend to put in that new facility, which is far from any oversight by the media or the courts. It’s in fucking Cuba, which is controlled by…well, you get it.
Its in cuba but its US soil.
Seriously? It’s in Cuba, there is no US soil.
That’s the neat part, we stole it and refuse to give it back because it’s very important to have a permanent torture prison where laws don’t apply.
Fuck this country.
Thats not what happened. We pay rent on that land.
Hahahaha.
We invaded it during the Spanish-American war to “liberate” Cuba (remove competing colonial power from our neighborhood) and set up a permanent Naval base there “for their protection.” We then pushed them into an infinite contract for two thousand dollars a year. That price has since gone up: as of 1974 we have been giving then FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS PER YEAR, a pittance that the post-revolutionary government of Cuba refuses out of principle.
It is stolen. Human Rights Violation Land isn’t the only purpose, it’s also to punish Cuba for ever daring to defy us.
Fuck. This. Country.
Cuba btw refuses to cash the cheques the US sends them. In my head canon Fidel used each and every one going over his desk as a cigar lighter.
Fun fact: It can be argued that the German Democratic Republic still lives on in the form of an Island gifted to them by Cuba. The island was not mentioned in the German unification treaty so the GDR still has territory, but Cuba argues that it was just a symbolic act, not actual gift, and the German foreign ministry concurs. But what about the foreign ministry of the GDR? They should at least be heard on this matter.
It really is. The US took it a long time ago and now use it as a nearby place where it stores those its kidnapped without having to provide them with any legal counsel.
3-6 months would be my guess.
Nah, he needs Russia open for his own escape route when he has to get helicoptered out after protests close the Beltway
russias currently housing, SEAGULL, assad, Snowden(not by his own fault apparently) , originally Ms GABBARD.
putin may call on trump to do that, since many foreigners are tricked to fight for russia in ukraine.
Whoa! Spicy comment! Deeply thoughtful. I love these.
Same to you
doesnt he mean, to Ukraine frontline(under russian control)
Can’t have a World News thread without some Americentrism right?
Nono you don’t understand they’re anti-imperialist
Gotta fight fire with fire!
When HitlerPig starts his wars, he’s definitely going to have a draft, if for no other reason than it will make people crazy. He won’t have a system, though, like they had during Vietnam, he’ll do it like Russia does it, and just grab military age men off the streets with no notice. They just won’t come home from work one day, and the next time they’re heard from, they’ll be on some front line in some war that will benefit the Sociopathic Oligarchs and/or the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
yes. pull me away from my family. give me access to weapons of mass destruction. throw me into a frontline battle where it’s super easy to disappear.
I once pushed a 1989 Chrysler New Yorker with flat tires 50 feet because it was in my way while playing basketball. I was 11 years old. It took me six hours. when dad got home he wasn’t even mad.
I learned two things that day.
- if you impress them, nobody will ever be mad at you
- I am a determined machine that’s fueled off of high octane hate and rage. nothing will stop me from achieving my goals. I have yet to test my resolve against death but I have no doubt, that too will be no obstacle.
throw me into a frontline battle where it’s super easy to disappear.
It’s not necessarily as easy as you’d think. It’s not like they point you towards the enemy and then you can go wherever you please.
You’re with your squad, and desertion is kinda frowned upon.
Time to bring back the age old tradition of fragging. Also sandbagging, blazing maintenance and logs, blazing quals, sleeping on post, making up inventories and malingering.
I’ve been through my conscription. I enjoyed it. Mostly because I knew it was mostly larping and not real war.
(Yeah that’s the backside of my dogtags, and thus empty. I’m hardly gonna dox myself my photographing my social security number, lol.)
Unlike in Russia, where conscription currently leads to being fed to a meat grinder.
Currently active duty US Navy, enlisted, contract ends next year (if they let it end). I don’t think upper brass understands the level of shenanigans we will get up to and they will never know about. Or the level we already get to on the regular, including on nuclear weapons platforms and carrier strike groups. The amount of gundecking right now is already “I can’t believe this thing still floats” levels. I’d love to see what it looks like when every sailor’s a disgruntled insider threat.
Ah. You wouldn’t believe how much I miss the shenanigans. (Only once did I wake up in the brig, but I was banned from leave a few times.)
The movies really don’t exaggerate it that much, lol.
I always tell people, the most realistic depiction of sailors is Down Periscope, and they never believe me lol
What’s the rate of fragging in the Russian army?
Self fragging for exemption
I’d say this is a good sign that things ain’t on the up and up for old Vlad.
Particularly as I thought they don’t enlist people from Moscow and St Petersburg. Only those from more remote locations that they care less about
Let’s hope that they have to enlist from Moscow and St. Petersburg real soon.
We can only hope.
Work out they said. It won’t hurt they said. Working out an hour a day never killed anyone they said.
So much winning.
deportation sounds like the logical answer, but it’s probably preceded by getting tossed in jail and forgotten about.
Alright, you are going to be deported to the front lines then
deportation in a black bag
gymbros are often heavily conservative leaning people, make sense to star there.
That’s just not true. Tell me you’ve never been in a gym without telling me you’ve never been in a gym.
