We already talk about Russia here, don't we? Distributing enemy propaganda, or just expressing anti-war or anti-military sentiment, is a criminal offense in Russia (and that's not new, beginning with the Russian crime of "extremism" for publishing interviews with Chechen separatist leaders and such already decades ago), and actually it's normal in wars.
Now why should we tolerate Russian propaganda in our countries? Because it's not normal in wars. That Soviet and pro-Soviet propaganda was allowed in America during the Cold War was weird. But during the recent (and ongoing, now mostly in Africa) war against the Islamic State the enemy propaganda has been suppressed very strongly on the internet with no free speech excuse.
Also the GWOT never actually ended. Even if it mostly moved to Africa, especially since losing in the original Afghanistan theater.
The original Cold War also continues in Korea, just the ceasefire holds (not to be confused with peace). That's for you in "we" because Poland isn't involved (but we've been on the other side), at least yet.
You want to be at war with Russia, you can go to Ukraine and fight them.
I will continue to work to prevent my country from involving itself in yet another globalist expansionist conflict, and the best way to do that is to share as much information as possible that disproves the establishment propaganda painting Russia as the only aggressor and international supervillain.
I'm not interested in watching another generation of young men go off to bleed and die in order to distract Westerners from the fact that Western leaders would all govern like Putin if given half a chance, and that they've spent the past two years proving it. We have our own problems to solve.
Oh, your "draft!" fantasies again. Unless you mean "a generation" of Russians, but even Russia might do away with the 30 years age limit for foreign nationals you're probably more concerned about:
According to current legislation, only Russians aged 18 to 40 and foreigners aged 18 to 30 are permitted to enroll as professional soldiers in the military.
The amendment, introduced by the head of the Duma's Defense Committee, Andrei Kartapolov, and his deputy, Andrei Krasov, does not mention any new upper age limit.
The amendment would also make it easier for Russia's armed forces to recruit civilian medics, engineers, and operations and communications specialists.
All generations, and old men, not any "generation of young men". Like in Ukraine, also with the other Russians forces (seps, militias and mercs, police units) and officer corps.
In any case, the generations of foreign young men, and foreign middle aged men, and foreign old men would have to make efforts of their own to become involved in such a "draft".

I see you're willing to ban speech you don't like and just blindly trust that its "propoganda"
Noted.
What blindly? It's literal propaganda, by the very definition of this word. Go and consult any dictionary.
More exactly, it's war propaganda.
Oh yeah, YouTube lies about everyone and every policy, but this time they're 100% telling the truth.
The Ghost of Kiev would like a word about war propaganda.
Yes, it was propaganda, of course it was. But not enemy.
We are not at war.
We are.
