draft was historical before vietnam war. you drafted in ww1, ww2, korea war... it became wildly unpopular during vietnam war. which is why it was ended. i don't know why we are arguing when we basically agree with each other. the state will quickly become tyrannical if it feels like it should, but for obvious reasons it won't be if it doesn't think it is necessary. western liberal democracies aren't that evil to be tyrannical on whims regularly (for now). willing compliance (which we saw during lockdowns for the most part, don't fool yourself) is always better than not. fighting against lockdowns was a minority position up until the end
