Slavery, but at least it's not discriminating based on sex.
How is that slavery? In a sane country, military service is actually a great tool to teach young adults how to behave within a diverse group and give life skills many lack at that age. In my homeland military service is only mandatory for men and i think it’s a shame and sexist that because I’m a woman I’m considered too fragile to do it.
It's forced labor. It doesn't get any clearer cut than that. It's slavery.
Nope. Official def is either ownership. Or forced labour without renumeration.
Forced labour with renumeration is not slavery.
Just shitty.
