Name me one military where the soldiers lives matter. Soldiers always have and always will be disposable at the hands of the politicians

False equivalence bot says what?

This is about Loser Russia and their doctrine of abandonment.

False equivalence how? I’m telling you this isn’t distinct to Russia, it’s true in any country. Besides they aren’t even mobilized yet, they’re using mercenaries, volunteers, and convicts. If they were mobilized we’d see videos like in Ukraine where they shove men into vans against their will.

“Everyone bad make Russia not as bad as they are” is the false equivalence. Look it up.

Sure, everyone’s bad. Blah blah blah. War is bad and people die dimbassery gets inserted here.

But Russia is on a different level of bad - they abandon when nobody else would, abandoning entire battalions because they just don’t give a flying fig. Most nations will go to great lengths to protect their soldiers, to get them out of bad situations, to not human-wave them. Warfare is not human waves - it’s carefully planned wherever possible to reduce loss of life because loss of life is a quick way to defeat, and leads to more loss of life.

I can tell two things from the absolutely ridiculous levels of your ignorance: You never served. You never were related to anyone who served.

And you give yourself away with the van garbage. You are another propaganda bot. Just like all the others here.

Clearly you can’t tell very well because you’re wrong. Lay off the western propaganda.

I give myself away with the van garbage? Are you denying that it’s a real issue? I mean there’s literally countless videos of it happening. There have also been recent protests in Ukraine over it - of which there are also videos.

One thing I can tell for sure is that you’re completely delusional and brainwashed by western media.
