A new trend called “Everyday Life of a Dodger” first went viral on TikTok, and then the song “I’m a Dodger” came out.
Over the past week, new trends related to mobilization evasion have become popular on the social media application TikTok. First, users quarreled in the comments under the video, and then the military personnel gave a strong answer, which was given later in the story.
“Daily life of a draft dodger”
Some Ukrainian men who did not join the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched the shameful trend of “daily life as a draft dodger.” Users film and post videos of their vacations, often from overseas, and call themselves draft dodgers.
In general, TikTok has gone viral with posts where men show beautiful scenery, walking, relaxing on the beach or in a restaurant.
Users captioned these posts in a variety of ways: “Any weather is good when you’re a dodger,” “What’s life like when you’re a dodger,” “Woke up and dodged .”

Interestingly, in the comments, most people support such boasting of a peaceful life.
Let’s note that from the video it is really not clear if these men are subject to mobilization and how long they have been living abroad, but the truth of the joke about the fact that they are “draft dodgers” and the demonstration that they is supposedly efficient now, unlike the military, angered some users . Especially the relatives of military personnel who are waiting for defenders at home.
Answer from the Ukrainian Armed Forces
Eventually, the military joined the trend and began recording videos with the caption “everyday life when you’re not a draft dodger.”
Soldiers place fragments of combat operations or their lives in the trenches under this inscription.

Song release
After the discussions seem to have died down since yesterday, a new song called “I’m a Dodger” has started to gain popularity on TikTok.
“Borders were closed, laws were passed and I became a draft dodger. A draft dodger, a handsome man, young. A draft dodger, about 25 years old,” said the song of the performer under the nickname Dodger.
In the comments under the video, users asked when the song would be released: “This is the draft dodger’s anthem,” “When is it finally released? I can’t walk anywhere near the shopping center,” “It’s a hit, sure it is not included in the applicable lists.”
