    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.

      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.

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

            It's . . . not . . . I don't . . i mean. Yeah. Putin's an absolute monster.

            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 just believe the righteous antipathy is better leveled at the Russian government, specifically Putin, than the anonymous cannon fodder.

                      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.

                              I can understand why you feel the way you do and cannot dispute it is a hatred you've earned.

                              Just like I wouldn't be able to blame any Canadian for hating every US soldier if the US were to invade Canada.

                              I personally feel bad for every person involved in something as horrible as fighting in a war. I wish their hearts, brains, and energies could instead be employed in something peaceful, helpful, and beneficial for the future.

                                    I am very wrong then. You’re suffering and witnessing suffering and hating the enemy, including thinking the worst of every single soldier. I can’t blame you for that but it is part of the dehumanization of war. I wish you well.
