The move comes as some pro-government outlets have enthusiastically been reporting on crimes committed by Russians who have returned from fighting in the war in Ukraine, including mercenaries and former convicts who received amnesty in exchange for going to war. “Crime always brings good traffic, and mentioning the special military operation in the headline warms up the audience, making the news more clickable,” one source close to the Kremlin said under the condition of anonymity.
Uh, people have been hearing about stuff like this for almost two years. There’s no point in closing the barn door now. The horse is long gone.
What could go wrong out of this?
You get Boomers.
No, seriously. The “greatest generation” came home, beat their wives, drank everything in sight, spooted out 2.2 kids, proceeded to beat and abuse them while also giving them everything they wanted because you could support a family of four on a single factory wage, and then those kids grew up to be absolute self-absorbed nutters that fellate authority (because daddy was mean) while demanding “respect” for things they never did.
Imagine that, only you don’t have the massive financial power of 1950’s America at your disposal.
Russia’s about to become an absolute landifill fire of a country and I wouldn’t doubt that with 5-7 years it’s entirely Balkanized.
Nothing could go wrong. Or did you read anything on the news about it djadja?
Same thing that happens in the Us lol
@sadreality there’s a lot wrong in the US as well as in Europe, but we are (still) far away from this.
Not sure which US you live in… But around this one we have vets homeless, we have vets killing themselves and vets denied services.
Hard[ly] a victory. You are coping.
Can’t we just admit that’s how governments treat their service people after they are discharged?
Is this here purely a propaganda piece so we need to focus on that while ignoring our own governments behavior?
Mob state. Mob rules.
