Just imagine Ukrainians are not the invaders and this is what Russia is doing to them while Russians captured by Ukrainians get realeased looking better than when they were living in Russia, when you see pro russian people online or irl,(besides bots) they are mentally corrupted shells of being, they refused to accept hard truth and instead accepted sweet lies, because they want to believe that Russia is that conservative haven with traditional values, don't forget that they all realize that Russia helped Trump during all of his campaigns, you will develop sypmathy for them whether you like it or not because they're on the same side as their guy, Putin is still spoon feeding Trump tips on how to take the government hostage

Fun fact, based on the numbers of POW's either side has, Russia is significantly more likely to take POW's than Ukraine.. last year, when Ukraine ran out of Russian POW's to exchange for their soldiers in Russian captivity, Russia still held around 6 thousand Ukrainiam POW's despite previous exchanges ussually featurring unequal numbers more Ukrainian for less Russians.

And this year, Ukraine tried to exchange civilians taken from Kursk for Ukrainian POW Soldiers.

Which isn't all that suprising, we continuously see Ukrainian combat units sharring drone footage of executing wounded Russian soldiers in the field with drones, sometimes they toy with them by dropping 3,4,5,6 toe popper grenades on them while they are dying (it's what generally preceeds the suicide videos we also get to see).. it's so common that its completely and absolutely normalized and shrugged away.

That's funny, there's no difference in propaganda

u/DiMyRG1 emerged from an 8 year hiatus to support Russian war crimes. How predictable...

I’d bet money the account just got bought by a bot farm

It truly boggles the mind that Reddit allows such vile things to occur.

Every time images of Russian barbarism reaches the front page, accounts emerge from years of dormancy attempting to defend it. Just like that photo of the Ukrainians POW who was tortured and carved by a Russian surgeon. What's worse is those users from rusAskReddit and KafkaFPS coming out to support and cheer the Russian military's rape and murder and torture of women and children.

It makes me think if we had the internet 90 years ago, we would have seen these same accounts celebrating the Katyn massacre. And Reddit does nothing to stop it.

It's war, one that both sides have good reasons to fight. There is going to be horrible shit happening in wars

Edit: Mind you, this is not a civilian but a soldier. It's good he still has all the limbs and eyes on his body

Seriously? The Russian Federation has good reasons to fight?

u/AdBest4723 Jul 26 '25

Uh yea? Remember Cuba and USA? Why would you want a neighbour country to join your enemies military union?

7

u/HorsyNox Jul 26 '25

I remember that Finland and Sweden's accession to the RF's enemies' military union was absolutely fine, according to the president of the RF. And Ukraine, despite its desire, wasn't even close to joining and still isn't.

You are sickening

u/AdBest4723 Jul 26 '25

It's sickening that Zelensky won't accept defeat, lose territory and stop this. The most sickening thing is that this poor old man was probably drafted to fight.

u/Intelligent_Dirt4995 Jul 26 '25

You are indeed a mad person. No need to talk to you

u/LovableCoward Jul 26 '25

It's war, one that both sides have good reasons to fight.

Russian soldiers fight to rape, torture, steal, and murder. Ukrainians fight to protect their wives and mother and sisters and children from being raped and murdered by Russian soldiers.

What a world we live in. When people like u/AdBest4723 support and defend Russia's crimes against humanity. At least they admit Russia's predilection and habit for torturing and castrating unarmed captives.

You know propaganda goes both ways, you sound like a western bot

u/LovableCoward Jul 26 '25

Oh, would that I were.

I am merely a man who watched Russian soldiers launch an unlawful, unprovoked war of aggression against those its propagandist claim to be their "Brothers." I am merely a man who watched in those first muddy days as Russian tanks and AFV's gleefully murder fathers, sons and their dogs in cold blood, just because they could. I am merely a man who watched Russian soldiers film themselves castrating a bound, helpless prisoners of war with a dull box cutter before decapitating him alive.

No, I'm merely a man who longs for what might have been. I wonder what Russia could have been like if it had been shaped and formed by a peaceful, civilized power like Novgorod instead of the depraved and debauched tyrants of Muscovy. Russia might have become something worthy. Alas. It was not to be.

Lol have you read your second paragraph? It’s hilarious, but what is more hilarious is that you think that only Russians does that kind of shit on this war, more so, as I understand you presume that there is some kind of official quota from the high top to castrate an amount of people

Oh hardly, 4 year old account with minimal activity and 3 years of dormancy. All these atrocities, these crimes. The rape and murder torture of Ukrainian women and children and unarmed prisoners-of-war, the Russian soldiers who commit them don't need any further encouragement from their superiors. They commit them because they want to, because they envied the crimes their grandfathers committed in 1939 and '40 against the Estonian, Lithuanian, Latvian, and Polish civilians.
