I’m sure Putin will make the survivors scapegoats as per SOP.
it’s a very weird line of thinking, but yes. for example, a lot of expats and immigrants escape the ongoing propaganda, but due to their personal experience, hate socialism to the point of not even noticing social programs that exists around them and works to their benefit. similar to anti-socialist sentiment in the cuban community. so the propaganda stays with them on many levels.

What does that have to do with supporting the invasion of Ukraine? It makes no sense that a Russian living outside Russia would support that.
I met someone about a month ago who was clearly embarrassed to admit she was Russian. I suppose she could have been afraid, but it seemed more like shame than fear.

Jesus. It’s a long walk but at least I don’t have to worry about this when I go to the grocery store.

I moved the Zara stuff to the Ukraine LC thread. Personally, I think it’s not in the best taste to attack a poster that has quit since they aren’t here to speak on their own behakf, but if you feel the need to do so, let’s at least not clutter up this thread with it.

Apparently word isn’t getting through to the pro-Russian telegram channels that Ukraine massacred their own citizens at Bucha.

I have to retract that, his initial rank was Rear Admiral. “Commander” was used colloquially.
i think in the UA Navy he was promoted two levels. I don’t see commander on the wiki, i think the closest rank is Commodore, which is probably just commander in ukrainian. after that it’s kontr-admiral and vice-admiral.
ahhh, i see he was already admiral.
hilarity continues over on land.

Seems like they are fighting like they don’t think they will be taken alive if they surrender, and I think that is probably correct.
