Russia has lost over 900,000 soldiers since February 2022
-
Plus about 300k "casualties", which is more apples to apples with the 900k Russians.
Only about 150k Americans seriously wounded in Vietnam.

That's a fact. Though it's hard to know what kind of statistic we're seeing in Russia's numbers here, by comparison

Ah welcome to your private fantasy land. Enjoy it.
I just believe the righteous antipathy is better leveled at the Russian government, specifically Putin, than the anonymous cannon fodder.

Anyone know the number of Americans killed in Vietnam without looking it up?
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
~58,000
:::This is in no way true is it? Holy shit

I would imagine Agent Orange and severe PTSD-induced homelessness or suicide should also contribute to that number.

Did you miss the article where local officials were giving out meat grinders to the parents of the KIA?

Seeing as they are still on their murderous war of conquest, obviously not enough yet.

Good for Ukraine.

You have more in common with those soldiers than you do with the warpigs pulling the strings that led them to their deaths.
I'm pretty sure everybody on these websites knows they're more similar to enlisted soldiers than to Vladimir Putin.
-
So... You have a lot of common with people who are ready to go kill in exchange for money?
Oh wowzies.
I don’t think killing for money is ok. I think you’re a teenager with simplistic view of a complex topic. I think you live under some liberal government that does not practice conscription, and have no idea what it means to live under a more repressive regime that does. And I think you enjoy believing you’re right more than you enjoy learning things, which might be how you became so fucking stupid to begin with.

Hey, that's not fair! Most of them were not killed, but only mutilated too much to be ableish-bodied enough for the russian army!
(Serious note: this is the casuality number, that includes deaths, but also soldiers with wounds that put them out of service, like lost legs)
And then they send the mutilated back out into the trenches literally.

I'll be honest: I know next to nothing about the Vietnam War, living in Germany. We just read Slaughterhouse 5 in our English class and that's it. Given its omnipresence in culture in general, I never would have thought that so "few" people died. Don't get me wrong - it's still a lot of people. But compared to the 900000 it's just a drop in the bucket.
Fuck Putin and what he's doing to my fellow countrymen/women/people

The war is about 20 km away from my home town. You are wrong in almost every point.
But please, don't let me stop you from living in your little Narnia, you stupid potato.

If you looked at the news article, the spokesman for the Kremlin mentioned that it was what the parents had "wanted and requested" which makes it look more like the parents taking a subtle jab at the leadership because they then had to publically hand them out.

I prefer to hate everyone willing to kill me, my friends, my family, take over my country equally. Especially so, if they do it for money, for ten years.
Hard to grasp such a complex concept, I understand.

Geez man, that really sucks. I'm sorry that's happening to you and your people.
