What awful waste of human lives. And I guess there is no good way to die in war, but this just seems so atrocious for everyone involved
Every death and every kill that will haunt a soldier in this shit show is on Putin's head.
No, it is not just Putin. Stop excusing all of Russia. They want the war, the see it as patriotic to fight the evil ukrainians. It is not just Putin the same way it was not just Hitler.
.ml account doing .ml things....
That's funny, I constantly hear people complaining about the opposite sentiment from the .ml community. It's a very common complaint around Lemmy that the 'tankies' from .ml defend Russia. So, it's weird to hear someone say that saying negative things about Russia is somehow '.ml behavior'.
They're not saying "negative things about Russia". On the contrary, they're trying to minimize the atrocities commited by russian "soldiers" and their superiors, by blaming 1 singular person.
As if, if putin disappeared, all will suddenly be rainbows and unicorns, russians and ukrainians best buds.
I see now. I think I was confused because it looked like you replied to the comment that you were agreeing with, but you were referring to the comment above that one as the .ml account. My bad.
The only way to truly win in war is to never fight.
If you have a choice, that is.
The only winning move is not to play
As long as nobody starts, not playing is the easiest way to avoid defeat. But if one player plays, the rest must follow or lose. And as long as either keeps playing, neither can stop. That is the tragedy of war: Easy to start, hard to end, until the fire runs out of fuel and only ruin is left.
