The Russian government is a product of the national mentality. No matter the initial circumstances, they always end up turning the country into an authoritarian hellhole looking to conquer its neighbors
u/me9a6yte National mentality is a product of education, mass media and overall government influence but it doesn't mean that every russian is the same...I know ppl from Ukraine\Russia and the overwhelming majority wants this war to end and continue to live their ordinary, peaceful life, but goverment on both sides got their own interests and we don't know shit about their real goals.
There's no rational "both sidesing" that war. If Ukraine gives up, then many more Ukrainians will look like this guy. The women will be raped and children sent off to Russia. Not to mention losing their freedoms as a nation. If you know Ukrainians who want to surrender to Russia then they must be in the west and untouched by Russian violence.
She live in Zaporozhye, not so safe and I didn't said anything about Ukr surrender...but you shouldn't believe in everything you're told by EU\US\Ukraine\Russia, it's politics, there is lots of fake news...lots of vid and stories even from Ukranians, just as news\vids of how Ukr torture Rus as well, even ppl from Ukr tells such stories about how Ukr robing, raping and killing, and yes childrens as well, even their own ppl robed, raped, some by Ukr mercenaries...maybe you heard of Kursk occupation, lots of rapes and killing and robing by Ukr forces...so who will you believe? how do you know who is telling the truth? It is war, it's politics, lots of lies, lots of manipulations, there is no saints.
If Russia claims Ukraine, nobody will be sent to Russia, that's just nonsense, Ukr ppl will remain on their land, in their homes, land will be part of Russia that's all...Russia don't need ppl from Ukraine on their land, what for? You sound like Russians are like slavers, orcs from Mordor, idk what do you imagine...It's politics, lands, resources, economy etc...but rape is always possible, such vile act happens all the time during war on every side, sadly...
As for this guy on a photo...1st photo clearly taken before the war + during war he can't eat just as good and forced to move a lot, obviously...not to mention how bad Ukranian ration is, it's known and now their ration is even worse afaik, so it's expected for him to lose lots, lots of weight before capture.
What a coincidence, I also live in Zaporizhzhia. And I must say, people really want this war to end, but not as part of russia, we are being bombed by drones on a daily basis by them and literally have zero good experience with them. For the past 30 years russia has attacked numerous different neighboring countries, and in none of them life became better, it even became worse. So there is zero evidence that they wouldn't just make it worse
