Reply to comment by ivandelapena in Kyrgyz Workers With Russian Citizenship Prevented From Leaving Russia, Urged To Fight In Ukraine by -Fuck-You-Charles-

One of the early cell intercepts of the invading russian troops calling home had this interesting episode -

This russian is calling his wife and is all very excited saying "OMG, their icecream is amazing, I ate like a kilo of it, so much better than ours! And you know what? Their villages all have asphalt roads and the houses, have you seen the houses? Lots of appliances in each of them! HOW DARE THEY LIVE BETTER THAN US!"

I remember one occupied home tagged up with "you live so well, why do you fight then?" They can't accept that Ukraine doesn't owe all it's prosperity to the Russian Federation that's done nothing but constantly fuck them over.

Russia is basically crabs in a bucket personified. They can’t win, but the closest thing possible is to bring everyone down.
