    Vladimir Putin doesn’t even care about throwing Russians into the meat grinder. Why would any foreigner joining the cause be treated any better?

      He doesn’t care about throwing Russians minorities in the meat grinder. There have been fewer ethnic Russian casualties

    Ok, I don’t think we should victim blame, but when someone asks you if you would like to join the military of a country currently invading another country, and they’ve already used up all their prisoners in penal battalions… Don’t believe them when they promise you a cushy rest echelon job, ffs.

      Tbf he didn’t go to Russia to join the military. Similar to ther stories that I’ve heard, he was offered a job in Russia, and then forced into the military.

        Yeah but same thing. Why would you trust Russia when there have been stories about them literally doing this for over a year now?

        Also even if they were telling the truth you’re still living in Russia.

    😡 This story is a nightmare. Imagine getting kicked out of a cab and days later on the front line fighting for Russia.
