          True, they were barely in Ukraine for a week before their own lack of opsec invited a rain of cruise missiles down on them

        I mean there are literally videos of Ukrainian men being kidnapped so they can be conscripted into the military. The user you are replying to is clearly making a dark joke about that.

          I think the lemmee user was making a joke about how such a kidnapper could be called “fuckass” or some other derisive name.

          Two countries at war. One is the aggressor and other is the victim of aggression. But of course hexbear.net comrades would want the victim country to act all up to standard, and ignore how the aggressor country is doing its own military recruitment.

            The confederacy also considered themselves to be the victims of a war of aggression, in fact some schools in the south still teach the civil war as the “war of northern aggression” even though they started that shit

            Nazis are never the victims, if anyone attacks them first it’s just self defense

            You’re right, Donbas is the victim of aggression.

            the aggressor country is doing its own military recruitment.

            Conscripting prisoners and shit is also abhorrent. We shouldn’t have to say it anytime we criticize what Ukraine is doing though. Especially since what Ukraine is doing is the subject of the fucking thread.
