I find this incredibly depressing. A poor kid, surrounded by toxic propaganda, got vacuumed up into the MIC by way of some white nationalist recruiting outfit so he could throw his life away charging the front lines of his old home town. What an absolute horrific waste.
Kid should be out playing softball with his buddies at the park, getting his first apartment, going to big house parties full of sexy singles, and figuring out what kind of beer he likes. Instead, he's getting jumped into a gang full of dipshits, juiced full of amphetamines, and tossed out into a warzone so some Russian mortar team can play target practice with his rag-doll corpse.
What a fucking nightmare. What a miserable pointless stupid way to spend the last years of your abbreviated life.
Yeah, thats all true, but utimately he made his own decisions, and the world is now slightly better off without him in it.
utimately he made his own decisions
Who can say if he made the best decisions he could with the information and opportunity available to him? Not when the information was shit and the opportunities were slim to none. Ukrainian boys are being groomed for this. At some point you can't discount the propaganda machine that stamps hate into so many foreheads.
the world is now slightly better off without him in it
Only after a cartel of shit-heads twisted his soul and tossed away his body. The world won't be better until the engine of immiseration is silenced. No when the next generation of children is being lined up at the hopper.
there is definitely something in the fact that he was only a nazi because he was indoctrinated as a nazi from a young age likely in a program funded by the US
and as Stalin argued when he called for leniency for the Hitler youth someone raised in nazi ideas is less culpable than an adult that knew better
that being said it's not like he was executed and if a nazi is shooting at you who cares how he came to be a nazi
that being said it's not like he was executed
Being sent in to charge a fortified position is no different than being executed
well the russians didn't execute him he died trying to kill people
he also based on his nazi tattoos was probably in favour of the plan of fighting russia tooth and nail here
I mourn the innocent soul and indoctrinated child ensnared and corrupted by naziism along with you but also that innocent core was part of what became a very dangerous man and it became a tragic necessity for him to die
if he had been captured I would support him being reeducated rather than killed but there are limits to what you can do and it's more important to stop him than redeem him
well the russians didn't execute him he died trying to kill people
That's the nature of war. If he'd taken another 20-something Russian soldier with shit politics on his way out, I wouldn't be cheering for that either. What they're doing is nightmarish, but they're just tools of the bourgeois fucks playing tug of war over the region.
I mourn the innocent soul and indoctrinated child ensnared and corrupted by naziism along with you but also that innocent core was part of what became a very dangerous man
I mourn the man he became. He was wasted before he'd died. But play this game and you're going to end up doing the "Military Age Males" shit that Americans use as an excuse for genocide. Being some dipshit with a gang tattoo doesn't make you dangerous. Not even if some goons stuff your hands full of military surplus and shove you towards a battle field. What's dangerous is the fucks churning these people out.
if he had been captured I would support him being reeducated
By whom? The fucking Wagner Corps? The Russian rank-and-file? Its pure
These people are human sacrifices. Raised like chattel and disposed of just as quickly. That's horrible on its face. Telling me the veal you're eating had bad ideology doesn't make the factory farm that processed him something to celebrate.

he had nazi tattoos and was in an army with recognised regiments of neo nazis. And having a gun in your hand does make you dangerous. If he was just a young man it would be one thing he is a young man in an army
yes it's very sad what happened to him but what happened to him made him actively dangerous to the ethnic russian civilians of the donbass and they also are innocents
he had nazi tattoos and was in an army with recognised regiments of neo nazis.
Where he was marched to the front, shoved into enemy fire, and eulogized as propaganda for the next in the line of human sacrifices.
The Russian lines haven't moved. These people aren't dangerous. They're disposable.
they are both dangerous and disposable. There are Russian dead in this war. There are Russian and Ukrainian dead who didn't even want to be there unlike this man who was by all indication a volunteer and nazi
everything you just said for him could also be said of the wehrmacht
There are Russian and Ukrainian dead who didn't even want to be there
The guy was 12 when the civil war started and 19 when the invasion happened. If he'd grown up away from the battle front, he wouldn't be so fucked in the head.
everything you just said for him could also be said of the wehrmacht
Even Stalin had pity for the Hitler Youth
Why are you crying so hard over dead Nazis?
Yes, dogshit people are indoctrinated. Indoctrinated people are the ones calling the shots & the ones dying in the trenches. It's a system. But you don't need to mourn this stupid fuck who wants nothing more than to reinforce that system. Violent systems have violent outcomes, be glad it was this guy and not someone who wouldn't get a fuckin swastika tattoo.
Why are you crying so hard over dead Nazis?
Because there but for the grace of God go we all.
Every kid who grows up to be a Nazi is a life squandered. It is a heart wrenching tragedy to imagine the trajectory of this person's life.
Indoctrinated people are the ones calling the shots
If fucking only. But guys like Putin and Blinken are as clear eyed as you get. Neither of them, nor their families, are getting anywhere near an active war zone.
what are you currently try to do or demonstrate ... he was the Nazi scum that brought that war on all those innocents that you heart should go out to .. it is al fine for somebody to get his wish granted ..
Who can say if he made the best decisions he could with the information and opportunity available to him?
Based on results obviously he didn't lol. And plenty of others grew up in the same environment and didn't do this.
And where do you draw the line anyway? Elon musk was born into his position and reinforced with all the prevailing attitudes in society, is it also not his fault for being a fascist shithead? Everyone is just helplessly following their predetermined path? Seems undialectical. Maybe it's my predetermined path to have a sensible chuckle when nazis get got.
If you have some bottomless christ-like empathy for your enemies, then good for you I guess. I think it sounds exhausting and pointless. I still have far more empathy for them than they have for me, that's the best I can manage personally.
And plenty of others grew up in the same environment and didn't do this.
Plenty of others got explosive ordinance dropped on their heads or shrapnel wounds that crippled them for life.
This guy got targeted for recruitment by a military gang, and took the bait, because even bait looks good when you're starved.
You think he was having debates on the quad with his friends over the merits of ideology? You think he was holding up a copy of State and Revolution in one hand and Mein Kampf in the other, with ample opportunity to pick a side?
If you have some bottomless christ-like empathy for your enemies, then good for you I guess.
I don't see this kid as an enemy. I see him as a victim. No different than a black kid shoved into state prison for years. Or a hick from the sticks who enlisted to the American armed forces.
I was 19 during 9/11, and I absolutely had the "should I join the military?" moment. I had a conga line of people to talk me out of it. He didn't.

Unlike the dead nazi these hypothetical people wouldn't be ethicly cleansing eastern Ukraine if they weren't getting killed by the Russian army. But also fuck the troops including the hypothetical hick
these hypothetical people wouldn't be ethicly cleansing eastern Ukraine if they weren't getting killed by the Russian army
It isn't as though the Russians are above a little ethnic cleansing. Just ask the Chechens. We're back into
. Am I supposed to cheer for a former Donetsk resident who was born into a burgeoning civil war aflame with right-wing propaganda at every angle because he got popped by a Russian soldier with equally awful politics doing ethnic nationalism on his side of the newly carved border? Or should I take the Reddit route and clap like a seal any time "Based Ukrainian Liberators Saw Off Man's Dick While Calling His Girlfriend On His Own Cell Phone" trends on some war-porn sub, because said dickless Russian can be tied back to some anti-LGBT post?Its all fucking awful. And there are going to be an ample number of survivors of this war who regret every moment of it. Many of them are going to have some pretty cringe tattoos they picked up in the trenches. Why should we be happy when toxic racist ideology foments war and said war kills the folks that adopted said ideology?
Which one of you coward mods removed this?
