Glad to see they arent going along with the bullshit of "all russians are evil and deserve to die" that is recently going around. The russian people is under dictator oppression and deserves just as much support as any other people in the same situation.

This is something more people need to understand. Just because Putin is the bad guy doesn't mean that everyone ethnically or nationally Russian is your enemy.

Hell, with conscription and an estimated death toll of 725,000 on the Russian side, we need to start recognizing this as a profound tragedy for the Russian people. Most of these men don't know what they're even fighting for, and a lot of families are going to end up shattered as Putin continues to use these conscripted men as pawns.

Way too many folks out there ready to celebrate the Russian death toll while flinging around ethnic slurs ("orcs") because they think that they're somehow sticking it to Putin, the man sending his people to their death.
