    Also, if I want to move somewhere, I look for work there, move there, period.

    Only thing keeping Russians from moving to Kyiv is their own government.

    If they are upstanding people that can function in a civil society, Ukraine isn’t going to turn them away.

    But no, Russians are this weird sort that hate their home, go enjoy being free somewhere else, then aid their home country in turning the place they actually enjoy, into another shithole.

    It’s so fucking bizarre.

      the ad is so weird. They show the soldiers suffering in the trench, daydreaming and shooting blindly to the other side. Dreaming to get a better place to live, implying that living in their own country sucks. The other soldier dreams of moving to Odessa, the sea is nice. Why not just move to Sochi then, it’s in Russia and it’s the same sea.

      Usually the ads for the army (any country) are more like “become an hero, serve your nation, become glory” not “come here to suffer and die hoping for a better future”
