That’s an interesting take. What about a scenario where the nation as it stands doesn’t meet the requirements you outlined, but there’s clear indication the invading country would be worse?
If the country is invading you, doesn’t that make them de-facto worse?
Conscription is a necessary tool for a defense effort.
There are countries (Sweden, Norway) where conscription serves more as a mandatory civil service period. Those programs give citizens a much greater understanding of their government and society.
I would still fight injustice but make it clear through my expression of doing so that I don’t support the current regime anymore than I otherwise would. Countries should consider themselves gratefully lucky the world accepts their existence and I’m not joining a collective just to be in a one-way relationship.
