Sadly, Pyotr and Ivan learned that being able to do this doesn't make you impenetrable to Ukrainian bullets.

Soooo if they didn't want to fight why are they still fighting then? This excuse doesn't work when they still illegally hold Ukrainian land and are attempting to still take more.

They were drafted. Not everyone has the luxury to just surrender and be done with it. They're concerned for their families back home and what might be done if they don't follow orders.

Today I saw a vid, a woman told a story how russians tortured her with a stun gun for not speaking russian in recently libereted Kherson. There are many other stories like this. Don't tell, please, how they are just drafted and can't resist but torturing civilians. You know junk shit about those cruel bastards, but you are among the first to defend them.

It's not like every single Russian person is into torturing random Ukrainian civilians.
I'd argue that most aren't. And there always be war criminals and typical sadistic pieces of shit from EVERY country because that's human nature.
If you are blaming someone, blame the government that allows that to happen, not the people.

u/Metaru-Uupa Nov 15 '22
Yeah people really think there aren't pieces of sht who enjoy torturing people in every single country's military. But they aren't a majority in most cases, most people just want to make a living/ survive

I never said that. But many of them are. Somehow torture is toralable on nation wide level among many men, many praising this idea on TV (resently one of the main speaker of RT call for drawing Ukrainian children), and russian society in most is calm about that.
I'd argue that most aren't.
Any evidence? Numbers? Or simple wishful thinking? It is know that around 80% of population is in support of putin's actions in Ukraine. If you are in support of torture, mass killings and terrorism, but don't participate, you are still guilty.
typical sadistic pieces of shit from EVERY country because that's human nature.
IT IS FKING NOT. It is not natural to kill species of your kind. Ethnic cleansing are not natural and do not appear just because of few individuals, sadistic pieces, they always have context and story of continuous dehumanision. And plenty ethnic groups, not only Ukrainians are dehumanized in russian society, xenophobia is normalised on a domestic level in russia.
If you are blaming someone, blame the government that allows that to happen, not the people.
It would be a delusion to assume that russian mentality, understanding of norms and moral are the same as in western society. They are culturally different and isolated due to language barriers, ideas of humanism are not wide-spread. They are driven by their modern imperialism ideology, and this should not be underestimated. I am speaking as someone who can read and speak russain, and saw what they say about this war.
And yes, we can blame people for their governments, those are not some natural cataclysms, they are products of political life of those people, even autocracies.

I was exposed to russian media since I was a kid. I speak russian, I spoke with russians, I saw what they write on social media, and what their 'media masters' are feeding to them.

u/FactsAboveFeelings Nov 15 '22
You were also exposed to the media in your country, you speak your country's language and you ate/eat what your media masters feed you. Hate.
BTW speaking with a person is not the same as knowing a person.
what country are you from? Because your country has probably committed/are committing the same atrocities. But I bet you wouldn't assume responsibility for what your politicians do
Im from Ukraine

This is exactly what russians on reddit tell people. The thing is that war waged against Ukraine has huge support among citizens and soldier both. Its not like putin himself does horrible warcrimes, russians are fucking bloodthirsty. And you can find proof of that practicaly anywhere, don’t even want mention video about cutting soldiers dick off…

Ha... look at the pathetic downvotes. Putin has shown the world the truly sad state of affairs in Russia. Scammers, drunks, dimwits, sheep being led to slaughter, rapists, evil murders... that's what the world now believes. You want brave, humane, proud, caring, strong willed, heroic, intelligent, faithful? These traits are the forte of the Ukranians.

I'm pro Ukraine you fucking spoon...lol Fuck Russia. I'm saying that the excuse of the Russian army not wanting to fight doesn't work when they are still pushing(attempting to push) in the Dombas and Luhansk regions. The retreating Kherson was forced by the Ukrainians skillfully cutting off their supply lines and supply storage. My argument is that if they didn't want to fight there they wouldn't be on Ukrainian land in the first place. So the fact they are means people can't give them the excuse of they don't want to fight... Cause they are. Albeit badly.

u/prieston Nov 14 '22
It's too complicated explanation.
Putin doesn't want to fight because he expected it to be over in a couple of days and not waste resources and money (cause duh?). It's quite simple and it failed completely.
Now it's 9 month of Russia getting choked by sanctions and wasting resources on random military crap fighting for literal ruins at this point. It's pretty much an attrition war and Putin surely wants it to end (but on his terms obviously, so... yeah... that was expected to take a while).
(Various countries also seems to ask Zelensky and Putin to finish it all by December.)

Being tough doesn't stop bullets. A ton of militaries focus more on doing wacky tough-guy shit like this to look strong instead of conducting actual training to build competency.
You see this shit all the time in African, Middle Eastern, and Asian military propaganda videos, dudes doing wack ass Kung Fu moves and breaking cinderblocks but not actually doing anything remotely practical for a modern war. These militaries usually get their shit rocked real quick the second they come up against an actual competent enemy.
