What the fuck...
War is ugly. That's probably happening on both sides. You try not killing a guy that's was shooting to kill you.
POWs typically aren't shooting to kill you
That's after you whip thier ass
Then don't bomb Russian civilians and they won't fight back
Bombing Russian civilians bad, bombing Ukrainian civilians good, right?
Since Ukraine started the fight by attacking ethnic Russians and murdering civilians in the Donbass then don't be surprised when Russia defends it's people
Victims of “Donbas genocide” were paid actors, Prigozhin’s fired trolls reveal

Do you have a less biased source than Euromaiden press lol? I don't disbelieve you, just not exactly unbiased
Girl killed in Ukraine 'never existed' - BBC News
Ridiculous lie on Russian TV: a child was crucified in Ukraine
Fake: Crucifixion in Slovyansk

It sure didn't take long for the Russian troll bots to show up on Lemmy
They were already here.
Killing POWs is not defending its people.
If by "defends its people" you mean "uses it as an excuse to invade the entire country of Ukraine" then... sure.
You know the ground war would stop immediately if Russia got out of Ukraine, yes?
Got any testimony from Ukraine soldiers saying they kill POWs?
Until you do, gtfo with "they're probably both doing it"
Actually, there have been very disturbing videos from both Russians and Ukrainians, featuring gruesome deaths of people quite definitely unarmed and taken PoW. Mostly from Russians, but not every one.
If they have half a brain they probably wouldn't admit to that as it would be self-incriminating.🤣
Eh, there is some evidence of it occurring here and there. I think I have seen like 5 or 6 of Ukrainians torturing or killing POWs. If you want, I can go get some links to videos and news articles. It's pretty rare and seems way more prevalent on the Russian side, who have filmed themselves committing some truly barbaric things, including emasculations and decapitations.
Well maybe. Humans are the worst. However we have evidence that russia is killing more than taking prisoners and kidnapping children.
Also every information we get about this war is most probably placed in the internet on purpose. You can't trust either Ukraine or Russian news.
Those are Ukranians, both of them, no Russian would say that and since none of you know the difference between Russian and Ukrainian it's too easy to fool people
If they're Ukrainians, why the interviewer says "Добрый день", in Russian (notice how the "e" is pronounced "je") instead of "Хороший день" or "Добрий ранок", in Ukrainian (notice how the "e" is pronounced "e")?
Most Ukrainians also speak Russian. All my Ukrainian friends only speak Russian online because they can reach more people through it. They aren't bound to speaking Ukrainian only.
OC said none of us know the difference between Russian and Ukrainian. I proved that person wrong.
Yes and you can neither trust the western news. The Nato and the west uses the conflict to their own purposes. Like every country does. This fight between Russia and the West isn't new. We've seen it long before.
I totally disagree with the war but i also find it irresponsible to only speak up when "bad commie Russia" does something. But when the US kills thousands of civilians in completely unjustified wars around the world nobody cares in the west.
Since the fall of the Warsaw pact there is no more any justification for the existence of the Nato alliance.
I'm anti-war and i think this should end as quickly as it began but what Zelensky is doing is no more than selling out his country to the west. For the next centuries Ukraine will be in debt to the western nations and by that, enslaved by them.
If zelensky would care about his people he would come to the table and find an agreement with the other side. Everyone has to make compromises in this war. No side will have a total win, but a first world war like trench war that takes years isn't helpful to neither of the sides. Only more people will die. What is more important, that the people live in Russian donbass or Ukrainian donbass, or that the people will die.
Also the west doesn't care about Ukraine, all they care about is hurting Russia. Some years back nobody in Europe or Nato would've considered Ukraine as a viable partner. Now out of nowhere they do
The agreement being Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine you. fucking. invaders.
I served in Iraq. Shooting an unarmed combatant is murder.
I never said it wasn't, I just said shit like that happens during war.
Yea bud, put down the Xbox controller and go touch some grass. War isn’t like Call of Duty
Yeah, it totally doesn't happen. I highly doubt you even served.....

You’re an angry white male who hates the fact he is obsolete & the rest of the world has moved on without you.
You’ll never get ahead and nobody cares except you. Grow up and serve if you think you’re a patriot.
No, you said you assumed shit like that happens during war on both sides.
