    It’s well documented that Ukrainians are being kidnapped, heavily abused and then sent to die on the front lines. This is what being governed by actual Nazis is like. Like fuck, AZOV is literally the main branch of the military.

      Dude. It’s called conscription. And both Russia and Ukraine are doing it. It’s pretty standard practice during times of war. Acting like it’s “kidnapping” when one side does it, but “recruitment” when the other side does, is pretty disingenuous.

        Conscription usually carries the option of prison time if you refuse, not literally becoming cannon fodder. If a nation not aligned with the western hegemony did that we’d have you libs calling it authoritarian, a crime against humanity, probably even a genocide, but let’s not let Ukrainians decide on a matter as important as the war in Ukraine.

        lol Ukraine has fucking Nazis my guy. They are kidnapping Ukrainians for the slaughter and it’s gotten bad enough that even western media is starting to report on it.
