        There were a lot of videos before the war, I guess technically they were Donbass militias being eaten, crucified, burned alive, etc. Don’t have them on hand.

        But the most famous one was the Ukrainian salt bae, were some Ukrainian guy was gleefully adding spices to a big cauldron, just like salt bae, and then it turned out there was a huma head in it. It got posted here, and people were defending the Ukrainian guy, saying “he is not a caníbal, he just wants to melt the meat of the head to take it as a trophy” but if that was the case, why add spices?

          At the risk of being naive, is any of that true? Those things are so comically evil it’s something not even (to my knowledge) the IDF does

            I can confirm to having seen some crucifixions, live burnings and also a beheading by some of the nazi groups. These were during the years of Donbas conflict before the Russians stepped in though.

            It was. I don’t save those kinds of videos, but yhea, it was true, like I said one of them got posted here.

            This is one of the reasons Russia had to do something. Such videos were being shared on telegram of their fellow Russians being tortured to death next door, and it was eroding the legitimacy of the Putin regime.

            Edit: at the same time we had western media outlets gloating about how Syrian figthers(isis guys) were volunteering to fight for Ukraine. People don’t realize how bad the Ukrainian regime is.

            And later during the Armenia war, the Baku regime imported some of the same people to de similar things, there were also a lot of those videos then.

            Edit 2 I’m not saying the ones doing atrocities in those videos were Syrian, they were Ukrainian, I brought the is conexión as evidence that in those that’s the regime was doing everything it could to inflict terror on the separatist territories. If they were importing deathsquads it’s clear local Azov deathsquads were not discouraged.
