Propaganda is a helluva drug. One could make a pretty solid argument that it’s killed more than all actual drugs combined. 🤷🏼♂️
I’m not implying anything about this man’s former beliefs or reasons for being there, only that those that deserve that grenade the most are pushing that propaganda and haven’t set for on any battlefield (nor will they).
Why should I differ one from another, judge them by the evils they made or could have made, bother myself with moral choices? They came to destroy my home, my country. They will all burn. Every single one of them that crossed the border.
And I don’t question that for a second, please understand.
It’s the people we’ve left that aren’t part of that, I’m concerned with. I know that you’re not wrong in any way — and I’d feel the same, were I in your shoes, frankly. You’re completely correct. My point is not with those that are dying on any side, but those that are pulling the strings, calling the shots, from their safe places of privilege. They never seem to pay the price of their actions. No. We do.
When it comes to it, I only hope we see the truth of it then: we’ve been the ones to lose, on every front. The vast majority of us are not different in any real way, and the ways we are, they exploit. We’ve been dying for them for centuries, over and over and over again.
We’re “heroes”. We’re “essential”. We’re who they’d be nothing without, but we throw ourselves and those that come after into the fires for them.
When do we say enough is enough? When does it stop?
In another way: can you - or anyone, name a blue-collar citizen anywhere that incited death like this, on a whim? Rhetorical, maybe, but I’ll wait. Meanwhile, we’re dying and they’re laughing all the way to the bank.
why the downvotes though? he could have stayed home.
Tankies are downvoting everything here by default, it’s a tradition.

These guys are conscripts, do you really think they want to be there?
Do I have to give a single fuck? They came to destroy my home, my country. They will all burn. Every single one of them that crossed the border.

As always.
That’s not an option for the common soldier. Welcome to Russia.
