  4. Do Ukrainians hate the Soviet flag even more than the Russian one?

  7. Tiny bit disappointed the Marines weren’t blown up by their own mines.

  9. The very same Russian unit that stripped and shot a group of Ukrainian drone operators. No mercy.

  10. There’s a scene in Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy where one of the vogons does a horrendous jowly laugh. I just did that laugh reading this.

  12. You know your life has zero purpose when someone says…

    So anyway I had a sandwich today

  16. You know you did a particularly good job that day when your footage ends up in the news. Congrats to the boys in the 47th!

  17. The Russian army seems to be composed by 13 year olds, the’re stupid af

  18. “Whoever has the most liquor to get the soldiers drunk and send them to be slaughtered, he’s the winner” -The Good the Dad and the Ugly.

  20. That’s why Donald Trump wants a peace settlement to help his Russian allies out

  22. Those soviet flags signify that ruzzia invaded its neighbor because of Ukraine’s aspirations to join NATO and not to restore ussr 2.0 /s

  24. That’s sad , Putin should be the one getting blown up not the youth

  26. Minus maybe the soviet flags this has been happening daily for the past few years.

  27. I learned that one of the books the Russian military read espouses the idea that the USSR’s accomplishments and geopolitical power once had should now belong to Russia. Meaning Russian military wants the same authoritarianism that was offered by the Soviets, and that is how they see Putin as a leader, the successor of the authoritarian USSR who will bring Russia back to its dominance of Europe and the world. So every time one of these soldiers die means another setback to Putin and his plans.

  29. I don’t get why they’re so stuck on the USSR being so great.

    1. It wasn’t around that long (69 years)
    2. From what I have learned and read. It sounds pretty awful. If it was great, the rest of the of European countries would want to join it.

  30. “The results were predictable-“.
    Wow that has me rolling

  32. Without Donald Trump in office, I was so proud of our country

  35. Oof, not gonna lie… seeing that guy flop on his back, only to get sent to his maker was brutal. Don’t have any real sympathy for em (war criminals can take whatever karma comes their way far as I’m concerned) but the ragdolling was almost CS’esque.

  36. Watching a body blow up brings back some rough PTSD. Trigger warning should be posted for this!

  37. “That’s an interesting strategy Cotton, let’s see how that wor… Oh. Okay then.”

  38. “Caught between Russian invaders and American extortionists, Zelensky is walking a very fine line.”
