Let them fight

[-] GuyDudeman@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Jesus... do people not realize that the Wagner Group are nazis and are not the good guys?

[-] GlitchSir@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don’t think anyone is rooting for them. More like excited for them to destroy each other. It’s like Jerry Springer but with geopolitics

You captured it perfectly.

[-] Holyginz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Neither of them are good guys. Hopefully they distract each other from the war crimes in Ukraine. Take themselves out of the picture

[-] phx@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but every dead wagnerite and every soldier that needs to fight them is one less in Ukraine so that works for me

[-] gk99@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

It's nazis turning on nazis. I don't care who wins, I just care that they decimate each other so this invasion stops before the potential outcome of Trump ending up back in office.

True but internal fighting weakens russia

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Is anyone actually rooting for these guys, or for the Russian army? I haven't seen anyone calling Prigozhin a good guy.

[-] Shell45@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think most of the west is hoping they will hurt each other enough that Ukraine can take over...

[-] ilickfrogs@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

IIRC a large enough portion are also prisoners that get pardoned if they help with the war effort. (obviously can't run away/desert though.)

[-] ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I think they know. They’re hoping the two military groups invading Ukraine eat each other.

If the enemy of my enemy is killing my enemy, I'm winning.

[-] huskola@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think it's an enemy of my enemy type of thing. Civil war in Russia may or may not be a good thing. I am not smart enough to know.

[-] 11181514@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I don't see a single comment on this post cheering on the Wagner Group. What "people" are you talking about?

[-] MercuryUprising@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The hypothetical ones he wants to be angry about to try and dilute the importance of this news

[-] Transcendant@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Good, let them eat each other

[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Last century, the Russian civil war started in *17. This year it's a little late starting in *23.

[-] Candelestine@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

... I'm not sure who I'm supposed to be rooting for. I guess ... both works?

[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

The innocent

[-] Bobo_Palermo@kbin.social -1 points 1 year ago

What if its an elaborate hoax to bring Ukraine close for their counter offensive, then ambush them?!
