        Every life lost is a shame but if Russia wanted us to stop laughing at their tragedies then they could fuck off and go home.

            I’m supporting Ukraine.

            Ok good, I didn’t demand you go to the trenches I simply pointed out it is a far more productive use of your time than arguing here about the humanity of russian soldiers while we laugh at their deaths.

            Don’t push a nation into having to repeatedly stop massive meatwave assaults in the largest near-peer military conflict in decades and then fixate on people making acidic comments about it.

            Spins gatling gun with a smile.

            Fuck them, we will kill them, as many as it takes. If we laugh while doing so, so what? This is not a war Ukrainians get up everday and choose to participate in as it is for russians.

        Even the “nice” Russians I’ve met in America — who should know better than to believe Kremlin propaganda — swallow every ounce of bullshit eminating from Moscow.

        I don’t doubt the 90% Putin approval ratings. Most of them are true believers — until they get drafted. Then suddenly they have a conscience.

        Rule one of this community is “sympathy for enemy combatants is prohibited” for what that’s worth.

            Many at this point didn’t enlist at all, they are basically slave-soldiers pressed into service. And not just Russians.

              Africans lured there? Yes. Russians? Who ever wouldn’t know what they’re in for? And sure, there’s always someone who claims they did it “by mistake” but the vast majority know.

          Hard to have sympathy when they illegally invaded with no justification against greed and if they wanted the death tonstop all they have to do is leave.

          Russia has spent what, 4 years now, trying to comvince everyone their shitty invasion was some sort of provoked two sided event but it wasn’t. They are entirely the agressor against a non agressor opponent.

          Then they kept poking hoping other countries would start fighting (NATO) to prove their lies about NATO agression, and that never happened either.

          All they have done is make the world hate them even more and show the world their “great military might” is trash from all the corruption hollowing it out for decades.

          Ukraine was a nothingburger country that some “great” country like Russia should have been able to roll through in a day or two. And Ukraine has held off Russia for four years now. Russia has shown they are a joke.
