The Russians have a new EW system for individual protection - the bucket.
It was the bucket that one of the Katsaps put on his head when the Ronin launched your drone at them🔪 It didn’t help.
UPD: they write that it is not a bucket. And part of the washing machine😂
While I’m not a fan of Russia and its dealings in the world, I can’t help but feel sorry for these guys, some of whom must surely just have been forcefully conscripted into this.
Don’t forget the humans, I guess.
Indeed.
There was a blood lust on Reddit and anybody with any compassion at all would be downvoted to hell. There are no winners here and just death and misery.
I have no blood lust, but I’m glad to see them die so they can’t keep killing Ukrainians. They came to someone else’s home and started killing and torturing people.
I’d prefer to see them turn around and go back to Russia, and I recognize that many are brainwashed and come from difficult circumstances, but as long as they’re in Ukraine it’s best if they get taken out as soon as possible.

Don’t forget the consequences of the Russian occupation: deportation, murder, torture, rape.
Many come to commit these crimes, others for money. We are two years into the war, they know what they are signing up for.
And let’s not forget that Putin hasn’t fired a single bullet in Ukraine, these “poor guys” are the ones doing the dirty work, they are the ones making the war possible.
What Putin is doing is horrible to both sides. He’s killing a whole generation.
But also, defecting is an option. So I didn’t need to feel too bad for Russian soldiers being killed since they should have surrendered or refused to fight in Putins war.
Entire Russian units have been wiped out by their own side for trying to surrender. Defecting is an incredibly risky move.
Right? It seems very easy to put the blame on all individual Russian soldiers, it’s not as if they have much choice. Of course, there’s a whole bunch of them acting like assholes in their role, but I’m sure there’s a whole bunch more of them who don’t particularly want to be there but are forced to.
Better to die than to kill wrongly. But I have seen lots of videos of Russians successfully surrendering, so it’s definitely an option.
Bold words from someone who’s never been faced with that choice.
I agree it’d be hard. But it’d still be the right thing to do to avoid murdering people. I don’t see how I need to have been in that situation to say that moral statement. I hope I’d be able to follow though.

Once they get a gun, they decide where to point it!
Don’t forget who the fascist, murderous aggressors are!
