He will be called a "foreign agent", poor guy. And anybody showing up to the protest too.

Let's see what happens though. Maybe there'll actually be footage.

harcesz@szmer.info · 7 pts · 53d

Well Russians used to have a bit of a think for laud reactions to lost wars, so you can't fully rule it out...

lurch@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 53d

yeah, it's way too late to just protest. they'll just end up in the gulag. at this time, it would be better to form resistance cells.

Did he just discredit the Russian army? Straight to jail

sexy_peach@feddit.org · 33 pts · 53d (1 reply)

Jail? He will be forced to carry the magazine for the rifle his buddy is holding while they're walking to the next set of coordinates...

Now, now. That's exaggerating things.

They'll at least give him an old, rusty Mosin Nagant. It might even come with some ammo!

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 52d

a window, some poisoned underpants, boat, or an airplane.

You stupid dumbfucks started a war against someone that was willing to fight back, that's what.

sexy_peach@feddit.org · 37 pts · 53d (3 replies)

You're fighting an unjust war and you're losing, the worst combination

OwOarchist@pawb.social · 10 pts · 53d (2 replies)

Not that I have much room to talk, given that I'm in the US right now ... but it least it looks like the US's latest unjust and losing war is ending a lot sooner.

If only Putin could be as smart as Trump: give Ukraine $300 billion, go back to the way things were before the war started, declare 'victory', and then get the fuck out.

RiceMunk@sopuli.xyz · 12 pts · 53d (1 reply)

The time for miracles is not over: Never thought I'd heard someone say "as smart as Trump" in implying that Trump is smarter than someone.

OwOarchist@pawb.social · 2 pts · 53d

Never thought I'd be saying it. And yet, there it is.

At least Trump knows how to get out of a dumb, discretionary war he's losing instead of infinitely doubling down on it.

4 years being lied to now faces reality. Russians with knowledge have been warning about this moment, but kremlins lies and ignorance is biting back. They are at the finding out moment now, and it won’t get better for the regime. it’s just the beginning

ladicius@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 53d

Blame it on the MoD instead of their psychopath Führer who started it all?

The finger pointing has started.

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 53d

It's called payback, buddy.

zergtoshi@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 53d (1 reply)

I'm glad there aren't (m)any tanks left to run over protesters.
...if only that kind of motivation would've been widespread when the pain was only on Ukrainian soil...

chocrates@piefed.world · 2 pts · 53d

They just reported that they have a way to refurbish old Soviet tanks previously deemed unsalvageable, so they potentially have about 1k more.

hanrahan@slrpnk.net · 16 pts · 52d (1 reply)

is this serious ? u fuckers started a war years ago, may your shitty nation burn

Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 52d

Yeah but... The war was only supposed to affect the other side. And maybe some peasants from outside Moscow.

sexy_peach@feddit.org · 15 pts · 53d (3 replies)

But now that I've seen the video, kudos to the guy. Takes courage to be one of the very few dissenting voices!!

harcesz@szmer.info · 11 pts · 53d (2 replies)

You do know he might just as well be a hyper-nationalist war supporter, which is the concessioned opposition?

Mika@piefed.ca · 4 pts · 53d (1 reply)

He most likely is. Look at the end of this video - he says that if we won't have the country, the HOMELAND, we are doomed.

So he basically means "why are they fighting so bad, must be a conspiracy".

carmo55@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 52d

Yes, he's clearly not against the war but against the losing of the war.

FatherPeanut@pawb.social · 14 pts · 53d

Let's hope this guy stays away from any open windows.

DungeonTreasureHunt@piefed.social · 12 pts · 53d (2 replies)

Their only option left is to surrender and become part of the NATO. Russia lost more people in this war than the US in Vietnam. They will never recover from that.

SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 53d (1 reply)

What did the US learn from Vietnam...other than how to chronically lose wars?

"Lose" is relative. Taxpayers lose, soldiers lose, civilians lose, but the MIC always wins.

Kalothar@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 52d

The weapons companies continue to win though

Sunshine@piefed.ca · 9 pts · 53d

Well said the Russian people need stand against the corrupt Kremlin politicians.

IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.wtf · 5 pts · 52d

What's Russian for "you chumps are losing, that's what's going on."
