    If they don’t want it happening to them maybe they shouldn’t do it to their own people for 8 fucking years without stopping. Thankfully the people Ukraine and their Nazis were genociding and burning alive are now part of Russia.

      1. whataboutism
      2. justifying murdering civilians not involved in military
      3. Thankfully the people Ukraine and their Nazis were genociding and burning alive are now part of Russia.

      You meant to say they’re Russia’s cannon fodder and so called military “volunteers”. So now you have a choice to die on the front lines or in a work camp – and yet they prefer that over migrating to Russia during those so-called 8 years genocide. Makes perfect sense

      Meanwhile, I just learned that I have a distant relative who fled Russia to avoid conscription for Putin’s failing war. It doesn’t even make sense, the guy’s in his 50’s. Now he doesn’t know when he’ll be able to return.
