Russian soldier admits proudly his comrades were killing POWs

The shooting will continue until the love improves

misguided people who simp for dictators and war criminals just because they oppose the west

People who've gone so far left they've come full circle and gone fascist and admire authoritarian communist regimes like China and the USSR. Like flat earthers I thought they were a made up joke until I started seeing a while bunch of unironic "Stalin did nothing wrong" type commentary.

Oh to be innocent again

I think a better question is "where are these tankies?" because I keep seeing people talk about them on these kinds of posts and have yet to actually see a tankie. Who here is defending the killing of POWs? You'd think they exist based on some of the posts here calling out this strawman.

Nobody wants to invade Russia. Whats absurd is that we sit around and let them invade other countries. I understand the desire to avoid escalation but if all other avenues fail there should be a willingness among free nations to boot them out swiftly and efficiently and make it clear that their dreams of empire building are done and it's time to get their house in order instead of distracting themselves with destroying others.

It's also gone hilariously bad for those who tried in the past

They maybe have nukes

They literally can't fuel their own tanks so whether or not their nukes are more than just expensive paperweights is very much up for discussion

And foreign policies

Basically, there's no direct laws to prosecute other countries. There's only sanctions. And since we can't pull them in front of the Hague, we are using sanctions. And with "we" I mean all of the world except for a few rogue nations like Saudi Arabia, North Korea, China, India, and a few more iirc.

Regular communist shit.

FIFY.

They did, it is there under blocked instances

While it's true that it's not the entirety of the Russian population, there's still the oligarchs, mercenaries, media outlets, the entire government body, and a fuck ton of the military, all more than happy to fuck over their ex-comrades as soon as they get the green light. I'm pretty sure that's who we mean when we generalize "Russians".

As a Latin American, this applies to Americans as well. Much love to a decent part (if not most) of the people there, but FUCK the US for fucking us all over with banana republics, neoliberalism, and red scare shenanigans, only for them to then have the galls to turn out to be xenophobic, warmongering, orangeman-loving fundamentalist pieces of shit.

Anyway, Russia, right. Fuck Putin and his greasy ball of oligarchs.

Abu Ghraib perpetrators went to prison, while this asshole went on TV.

russia is a terrorists state. It's up to russians to change this fact. Until they do, all of them are assisting terrorism.
