This picture from very early on is so on-the-nose I thought it was on purpose.

>>63925830
of course it was on purpose. someone had to frame that shot - camera pictures don't appear out of thin air you know

>>63925837
Well, yeah. But I mean everything looked staged. Even so it's a great picture.

Who's the artist?

>>63925881
apparently https://t.me/s/desastresguerra

>>63925901
>zigger artist
Of course it is. He's even selling patches. I thought that the paintings looked really "Russian" (for the lack of a better adjective) at the first glance, that's why I asked. It's these themes:
>Gloomy and depressive colors
>Suffering and death (literal dance with the death in one painting)
>Decay and adversity
>Mysterious subject whose soul is bright who endures the darkness and pain (MVH RVSSIAN SOVL VGH...)
>Subject(s) shown as enduring
>Subject(s) shown caring for animals
>Subject(s) shown as brave/mighty/strong

It's so on the nose. You can really tell how the artist wanted to make the juxtaposition between suffering and moments of light in his work but fuck it's so painfully Russian and on the nose. Not to mention that the paintings are really fucking boring.

shuplyak draws well. what you posted, on the other hand, looks like AI slop
I found this work by him on his website (https://shupliak.art/gallery/2022) where you can actually make out what's going on. maybe this is the original?

>>63926108
here is another one by him. i like this one more personally; it's more like what he usually draws, and it isn't cringe.

>>63926108
>>63926126
as an aside, if you look at shuplyak's gallery from 2023 onward, it's like he either forgot about the war or stopped caring about it. or maybe he decided that he had made enough "slava ukraini" art and decided to go back to his regular stuff

rybar has a fuckload of z art, apparently commemorating every town and city captured: https://rybar.ru/art/epizody-pobedy/#

my guess is that these were put together in photoshop with heavy use of filters and retouching to make them look more "artistic" and less like photographs, if that makes sense. i don't think it's ai because ai doesnt draw guns that well

>>63926193
this one is mariupol. i wonder whether someone made art about mariupol's reconstruction yet

>>63926208
apparently not. however there are monuments to russian soldiers (here is one being unveiled)
>>63926193
>>63926208
i am indifferent to these. there's not really much artistic value - the pieces exist simply to have a high-res artistic-looking image to go along with the statement "we captured ukrainian city xyz"

It's not that. It's just shit art, and terribly Russian at that. One must ask why you created this thread to dump "cool" Russian war art on /k/.

where's the line between propaganda posters and true art? there's definitely a lot of great art that's just commemorating a victory of one kind or another, and it would be unfair to dismiss it just for that being its primary message

>>63926431
>they're all a declaration of "event xyz happened! slava " thinly veiled as art. it has about the same artistic value as your average basedjak
Bit ironic. I hope you have the self-awareness and analytical skills to realize it.
>t's not about a particular event but there is no message except "we good they bad"
Your "art", it it can even be called that, has the message of
>muh russian soul...
in the first 10 pics you posted and
>look how we conquered these towns aren't we based and cool
in the case of the Rybar reposts. Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house.

>meanwhile just about everything else itt is glorified 'jakking
BUT WHATABOUT THIS!!???!!!??
We're discussing pretentious and shitty art that you posted. It's your fucking thread. I don't care about what other anons post ITT to rile you up.

>the things you listed as being "russian" also apply to the pro-ua art:
BUT WHATABOUT THIS???!!!! x2
Just kill yourself. You wouldn't know good art if it hit you in the head, not that you had any bona fide want to show /k/ cool war art you just happened to fond on telegram from a zigger artist. You're a zigger and your thread is really transparent.

The only good art itt is this >>63926139 because I love planes

>>63926445
>where's the line between propaganda posters and true art?
Certainly not in trashy propaganda posters that were most likely produced by retouching a photograph in Photoshop to make it look like a pseudo-painting. Intent also matters in art (some argue that it matters the most). I'll leave it to you to figure out the intent behind the Rybar posters and why they were posted ITT in the first place.

>>63926466
okay this one is art for sure

>>63926466

>>63926455
>>muh russian soul...
expressing oneself and one's culture is one of the primary purposes of art. if this art expresses the "russian soul" then that would be a good thing and not a bad thing in this case, since a russian made that art

this is already gay as fuck, and you bringing up "pot calling the kettle black" earlier makes it 3 times gayer

>>63926523
>expressing oneself and one's culture is one of the primary purposes of art.
Very, very debatable.

>if this art expresses the "russian soul" then that would be a good thing and not a bad thing in this case, since a russian made that art
It does it very lazily. It's not clever, it's not surprising, it's just fucking boring and bland. It's done by various forms of ziggerstanians since 1600s. It's shit and boring art.

>this is already gay as fuck, and you bringing up "pot calling the kettle black" earlier makes it 3 times gayer
You really have no self-awareness, do you? You're such a fucking faggot. Whataboutism is a type of zigger argument in which the zigger, that is (You), accuses the other side of hypocrisy. "Why do you criticize me of shit art when le heckin' hohols post shit art?!?!?!? There's even hekkin basedjaks?!?!?". Calling whataboutist arguments out might make me triple-gay, but you defaulting to a retarded whataboutist defense in the first place is the act of a flamboyant hypocritical faggot.

How about we keep posting art? Rather than criticism of art?

I justified my view in my very first post, you retarded doublefaggot.

You're again incredibly ironic and you still don't realize it. Fuck you're stupid, and you even have the gall to call others midwits.
>whatever value this could have had was ruined by it being low-value ai slop unfortunately
It's much cleverer than the boring shit that you've posted so far. Imagine posting so fucking bad art that even someone prompting an AI can do better than your bland and boring trash that you just so happened to find on telegram that just so happened to be from a pro-RU artist.

>>63926608
>I justified my view in my very first post
only a very gullible or feeble-minded person would call that justification.
>It's much cleverer than the boring shit that you've posted so far
is it? but more importantly, it doesn't matter which piece is more "clever". cleverness isn't the metric by which the vast majority of people judge art. indeed, pieces like the black square by whoeverthefuck and the preserved shark in the box by whoeverthefuck_2 are generally ridiculed rather than praised

>>63926633
>only a very gullible or feeble-minded person would call that justification.
Look, you can try to play these wordgames, but I justified my critical view of this shitty art in my very post. We can disagree or agree with the critique's merits or the quality of my arguments, but I will not accept this thirdie-tier relativistic play with words. Words have meaning.
>cleverness isn't the metric by which the vast majority of people judge art.
Yeah, they judge it by aesthetics and craftmanship, which the bland and boring shit you gobble up also lacks.

Exactly, post art that has worth and good aesthetics, not this bland and boring shit that you've posted so far, you seething little bitch. Baby can't even handle a bit of criticism, is your ego that frail?

It's zigger art but pretty impressive considering it was made within like a week of the start of the invasion.

>>63926695
It's also hilarious that the zigger piece's message got BTFO as fast. I can't take these Russian army hype pieces seriously anymore. Not after three and half years of special needs operation.

Got a bunch of the details wrong too. Mi-24s haven't been used in the transport role in decades. To my recollection, they weren't even present during the initial landing at Hostomel, the assault was made with Mi-17s escorted by Ka-52s.

Maria Moskalyova's secondary school reported her drawings to authorities

A Russian girl who made international headlines for her anti-war drawings has been removed from a group home by her estranged mother, authorities said on Thursday.

In early March, officials sent 13-year-old Maria Moskalyova to an orphanage and separated her from her single father, Alexei Moskalyov.

Her father was convicted of discrediting the Russian armed forces and sentenced to two years in prison after his daughter drew a sketch at school in support of Ukraine.

Russia's children's rights commissioner, Maria Lvova-Belova, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), said that she had spoken to the girl's mother who had collected her from social care. The move happened just hours before a court was due to hold a hearing over depriving Moskalyov of the custody of his child.

"[Maria] did not want to go to her mother at first, and her opinion is legally required to be taken into account. Now her position has changed – she told me this herself on the phone," Lvova-Belova said.
Maria's father, Alexei Moskalyov, fled house arrest last week after Russian court handed him a two-year sentence for discrediting the Russian army. He was detained in in the Belarusian capital Minsk two days after he fled "upon request of the Russian police".

Last year, Maria drew a picture in a school art class last year that showed Russian missiles flying towards Ukraine and the slogans "Glory to Ukraine" and "No to Putin, no to war".

Its okay, its just an IQ thing. Generally, low iq individuals have a harder time understanding empathy or complex situations such as a large scale war. If I was in the same boat as you, I should cheer on the deaths of Americans that invaded Iraq on false evidence. I dont, because even though it was an unjust war I feel pity and empathy for people tricked into it by their government.

>>63926363
It's very much just the usual "oh, the horror, the tragedy, the immuable fate..." without ever acting appropriately on it. Even the most self-aware Russian is still just cattle, cursed to witness his suffering but never truly understand it, why it happens and how it relates to his own actions (or lack thereof).

You'll see it's extremely popular with mouthbreathers because it leaves the impression of self-conscience, as if it's some divine, grand plan assumed with sacred humility, not just another subhuman too idiotic and buck-broken to figure out even the most in-your-face of realities. The fetish of misery, masquerading as profoundness.

The civilian version of these abominations are the soldiers and wives of soldiers who complain about the ordeals their husbands are going through but never because they actually want the madness to end, but just because they demand more payment and benefits for it.

>>63927575
>Slavs from backwater villages with no money and no hope of ever escaping being conscripted get sent to die in droves

I know exactly what you're talking about and I agree anon. War is a senseless tragedy, an abomination, and all jokes aside I derive no real spiritual joy from seeing humans brutally slaughtering other humans. That said
"MUH CONSCRIPTION" just isn't true anymore. The majority of the frontline right now is people who volunteered, whether for money, a sentence reduction, or fucked up beliefs. Either way, they're mostly volunteers, and they're volunteers to invade ukraine. So fuck 'em. I feel empathy but not compassion. Stop assuming you're smarter than people just because they disagree with you, faggot.

>>63927880
>WHY DON'T YOU CRY FOR THE INVADER(((( THEY ARE HUMAN JUST LIKE YOU(((( CYKA((((
They sign contracts. They are contractors, soldiers of fortune. They absolutely choose to be there. They nake the conscious choice to sign the papers, to deploy to Ukraine and then point weapons at Ukrainians. This sympathy-baiting zigger tactic got old in the first six months of the war.

They are interesting because it shows the perspective of those involved on their side, in these you don't see a triumphant superhuman race of unstoppable heros conquering everything in their path.
Most of the men in these images are broken, disillusioned, afraid, or just dead, shown before visuals akin to hellfire.
The most vivid images are those made of things between battle, when there is some semblance of peace, made vivid as to capture the desire to soak up every last detail before being plunged back into the nightmare they survive.
The men in these images are in the process of realizing the hell they walked into, and for how little their lives matter in the grand scheme of it all to those that asked them to do so.

These are the men that will look back on this war in 20 years time and see it as little more than a senseless waste of life, tormented by the images burned into their mind of their friends bleeding out in the snow or burning to death in a BTR, all for a war that never made any sense in the first place, one that they were all too naive and eager to jump into without a second thought.

They had Ukraine as a puppet until the US/NATO couped their regime with the Maidan protests. The war is their only logical option to prevent Ukraine from becoming fully incorporated in NATO & having American bases dotting their geographically weakest frontier, if you concede that the Russians have their own geopolitical interests and motivations.

Perhaps I was overly harsh. This side of the art I certainly recognise the quality of, and it's certainly thought provoking. Part of what I was trying to say on a deeper level is that I find it difficult to engage in artwork that depicts russian soldiers as victims of tragedy, no matter how authentic or moving these artworks are, when I know that most russian soldiers currently are volunteers, and that if the ukrainians had put up less of a fight in a few years it would be me and my brothers on the firing line before them. That said I do find russian lamentations of war uniquely moving; In particular, looking into the russian experience of afghanistan, and then chechnya after the breakup of the USSR, has often moved me to the point of tears. This video in particular always fuck me up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnA552tMV8g
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I will never not sympathise on a fundamental level with soldiers who are just trying to do their job and follow orders they believe to be lawful, because had I been born on their side of the wire, I know I probably could have ended up in their shoes, but in the specific case of ukraine -
the goals of the war, the prosecution thereof by the russians, the fact that the russian army is not made up of unwilling conscript but now mostly of volunteers, and the fact that it is not only the ukrainians but free europe as a whole on the line, my europe, makes me unwilling to sympathise too much with them in this specific conflict. But even still there is some level of empathy in my heart.

>>63930124
>looking into the russian experience of afghanistan, and then chechnya
The USSR army wasn't contracted and was in fact forced conscription similar to Vietnam, so your point does make sense there. But those pictures is about war in Ukraine... nor it's USSR nor it's forced conscription... it's just dumb zigers go in voluntarily and destroy neighbor (who also was on their side during afghanistan, and chechnya lol) and then cry about OH THE CRUELTY OF WAR

>>63925801
This image shows a familiarity with old art and culture that's out of the reach of the average conscript. More likely this was drawn by someone in Moscow obsessed with war footage.

>>63930195
right that's what I'm saying (albeit more loquatiously). I know that the soldiers on the frontline in ukraine are not poor victims of history but rather, mostly, greedy bastards who'd kill me without hesitating if it was my turn to man the trench. So it's not very easy to sympathsie. I also am acutely aware of the infowar aspect of this conflict and how much the russians try to manipulate online narratives about the war; one of their key narratives is the whole "both sides bad, this war is a tragedy on both sides" which sways retarded fifth columnists into supporting less aid for ukraine, and these paintings help that narratives, so I am forced to say: fuck off zigger

>>63930261

Russian made a lame false flag op where they framed "nazi" agents operating in Russia. Of course they had a fresh-from-printer swastika t-shirt, a green wig and three Sims games. Because the false flagger didn't understand his instructions. They needed Sim-cards for phones, not Sim games, for the evidence pics of the raid.

Russians think that they are the defenders and that the Ukrainian junta is invading and genociding the poor innocent dpr and lnr. Thus they’re not any less honorable or less deserving of sympathy than ukrainian volunteers, even if they are misled and deceived by their government. (Ukrainians are deceived by their government too, btw, and are still deserving of sympathy)

>>63928053
The new ones are but the old ones were drafted and/or had no idea that the russian invasion of ukraine would ever happen.

>>63931487

We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.

>One could also argue that people in shitty backwater regions of russia are basically forced to the front because the money offered is just about the only way for them to get out of generational poverty
No one forces them. They make the conscious choice to go murder and pillage. It's immoral and wrong to go kill and invade for pay. I have no sympathy for any of these Russians who die or get naimed in Ukraine, no natter how fucking poor and dumb they were in life. Poverty, ignorance and stupidity don't proscribe you from making moral choices. Going to partake in a war of invasion because it pays a lot is not a fucking moral choice.

>>63931487

Why make excuses for the vile subhuman filth taking part in Putins land grab? Invaders are monsters who deserve to be tortured to death, you might as well pretend home invaders deserve sympathy or moral and legal rights.

>>63931832
You aren't a participant, you're a spectator. It's absolutely right to feel that Ukraine is being ravaged by an uncaring external nation. Don't go pretending that civilians or soldiers, either side, truly deserve any of this shit. I highly doubt some kid in the Ural goes "I wanna get dismembered and set on fire in Ukraine, please." They seem to go because they're either being lied to and believe that what they're doing is right (question how one must feel if they saw their enemies screeching about how they want to nuke your capital cities and eradicate your culture, all because some fat retard you don't even like, decided to sharpen his pedigree with a broke-dick invasion.) or are, of course, a gaggle of genuine psychos who want to get in on the killing.
I've seen people go on full rants about how they wish every zigger and their offspring would be done in and wiped out. I've seen the same said about Ukrainians. About Americans. About Israelis. About Palestinians. About even fucking Poles, for some reason.

And I'm sure if some bucktoothed, purple eyed, arthritic zigger came here slapping his keyboard about how you, and your family, your culture, your everything should be destroyed because of the transgressions of My Lai, or some other historic warcrime, you'd feel compelled to kill him. TZD will make the zigger AND the average Russian feel the same way.

War is a fool's game. The only part that matters is yourself, and if you look at it wisely, it's complete trash. It's sending men, good and bad, to the slaughterhouse. That's anon's point. You *can* fight for yourself but still acknowledge it's all wrong, that everything about what is being done to you, and what you must do to others, is twisted.
Show mercy, and those who believe in humanity will accept it. It will filter the violent and depraved from those who feel what they are doing is "right".

Anon, the average russian is a zigger. Even those who have born and lived their whole lives outside of russia tend to be. Exceptions are rare. I wish they werent, I wish they werent my ancestral enemy but russia is russia, has been russia and will be russia for the foreseeable future. Every one that Ukraine kills makes the world a slightly better places to live for all us all, ziggers themselves included.

Enemy nations that they themselves antagonize, who they have enslaved and oppressed and warred with over the centuries, that they themselves consider subhumans only worthy of oppression? I will not feel sorry for Russians. Their fates are wholly of their own making. Question why everyone in Eastern Europe hate them and want them dead.

By the way, for what it's worth, I have no trouble picturing the scenario you describe which I greentexted, because Russians literally screech about nooking Washington DC, New York and other big cities every fucking day, on social media, on the TV, in the newspapers. If I were in the shoes of a Russian, I'd completely understand why people have an axe to grind with Russians.

>The average Russian is a zigger

Damn I wonder why Russians will join the war effort. You just immediately justified why they still come to Ukraine, why they still kill young men for their "just cause" despite having their teeth smashed over and over and over again.
This is my entire argument. Do not stoop to be a retarded zigger who blames the whole scope of the enemy culture and population for everything. What reason would they have to ever change their ways if any attempt to show them mercy or what makes us "better" than them is irrelevant. Don't behave like a zigger. Replace your words with hohol or ukronazi and see how insane you begin to sound

>>63932069
Your problem is that you assume that russians think that they fight for justice. They dont think their cause is "just". They think they must conquer and pillage and enslave or someone does the same for them. The men fighting dont think so either, theyre there for money and loot just like in good old times

>>63932049
>You *can* fight for yourself but still acknowledge it's all wrong, that everything about what is being done to you, and what you must do to others, is twisted.
Yet this war would not even be fought currently if not for Russians. This is the fact you and other "muh both sides" posters refuse to acknowledge. Russians started the war. Russians fuel the war. Russians support the war. The blame lies solely at the feet of Russians. Ukrainians wouldn't have to choose to do twisted violence against other humans if not for Russians, but because Russians decided that Ukraine belongs to them, they have to kill in defense of themselves and their close ones. Why is this so hard to fucking get? There is no relativism here. Russians are to blame for this war and they could stop it, yet they refuse.

>>63932065
>Enemy nations that they themselves antagonize
Yeah, because the Russian state chose that, not some 16 year old who hasn't thought for himself yet. You think Zinin was thinking about how he wants to slaughter a bunch of NATO nations when he popped a hole through a conscription officer? You think some sod who's sitting in a ditch, squirming in a puddle of his own gore is thinking about Dugin's idea of Rusky Mir?

War is fucked *specifically* because good people are lied to about what's "right", and what I'm trying to tell anon here, is that it's understandable, but incredibly stupid to encourage undue callousness when that's what the ziggers are preying upon as ammo for their cause.

>>63932079
>You think some sod who's sitting in a ditch, squirming in a puddle of his own gore is thinking about Dugin's idea of Rusky Mir?
Probably not, yet he made the conscious choice to join a war that Dugin and his idea of Russkiy Mir demanded. Or are we to assume that Russians are mindless cattle who are incapable of making moral choices?

the worst part, and most ironic considering the vatnik paranoia, about the zigger cancer is that america is their ultimate life insurance. ever time these faggots get into deep shit they storm head over heels to bail them out. they tried that post ww1 in saving the tzarist regime, they straight up bailed them out in ww2, tried to stop ussr implosion and now, once again, are trying to simp for them straight in the middle of a naked imperialist chimp out

>>63932091
What makes us any better than a zigger if the best we can do for people is kill them for differences that they had barely anything to do with. They were born, and now they must die, not because of Putin, but because they are from his lands.
You act like there wasn't almost 30 years where Russia could behave, where it's citizens were travelling and interacting with us like normal. I want to see their leadership smashed and humiliated, I want their armies gone and for the remainder to demonstrate that they can shake hands or at least leave the country behind them.
I know a Ukrainian, I know a Russian. He lived as both, in the USSR and came to the US because he was a learned philosopher. He travelled the world and it opened his eyes, he read banned books because what knowledge could truly be forbidden?
If that man exists, I know others like him exist. I've seen people from Russia try to subtly display their dislike of the government. Most of them can only do this because they don't live there anymore, but they still want the betterment of their people, because they're still Russian. There is a difference between Russians and ziggers. Call me a hippie or whatever, but that difference exists.
I want good people to not be punished because those around them made horrific choices, and live to harm. Sorry I refuse to stoop to the level of a braindead, telegram swilling zigger and just deny that good people are still trapped in that country.

West showed them mercy starting from the 1990's (USA and EU provided food aid to them) , did business with them and tried to act amicably with them. Then in the following decades they invaded Chechnya twice, Georgia next, then Ukraine, shot down a civilian airliner full of innocents, paid off politicians, laundered money and corrupted national decision making, and took full advantage of the bonafide goodwill that was being shown to them by the West. My question to you is: If they did not change while we in the West showed them mercy and gave them the benefit of the doubt, why would they change in the future as we naively continue to act as if they're deserving of our goodwill?

Despite the apparent peacefulness of russia and russians this never happened. russians have different understanding of what is peace and what is war or conflict. 1991 to 2008 were simply an era of weakness for them where they could not wage war openly but had to be more covert, and they think they are very good in both ways of war

I dont say all russians are evil. I never will. But vast majority of them are and those few good russians still in russia who resist and try to change their home to the better are very brave indeed. This goes to Iranians too, for what but bravery can be riskings ones life to resist the darkness of these death cults of russism and jihadism?

"They" explicitly meaning the government of Russia. There will constituents that carried out the actions without thought, because they justified it.
But this was not the kids born in 2003, this wasn't women and babushkas lining up chechens and killing them. Russians are NOT in control of their state. Just how Americans were not in control of Afghanistan, or Iraq. Like how Israelis aren't in control of Palestine and likewise, the Palestinians were not in control of Hamas. Complacency is a universal trait when you're just a guy trying to make your family happy. Geopolitics and radical action to unseat it, is not the no. 1 mental goal of human beings living in a nation. This is a uniquely American perspective but even still I've seen Americans be wholly complacent in wars that even the government would up saying, were malfunctional.

>>63932130
Oh yeah! So lets just be the boogeymen they're told about and kill them? Show no mercy! Just like the ziggers!!!

>>63932129
Finally a post that comprehends what I'm saying through something that isn't genuinely horrific self-irony. Their government and heraldry should be dismantled and their national state replaced with something explicitly western. Ziggers and their ilk should be severely punished, and those who, either intelligently or unknowingly adopt to Western ideals rewarded with prosperity that their state formerly forbade them from enjoying.

>>63932141
Considering their ability to be complacent, and the cultural conditions they live in which they cannot rise up, no matter how much their tzar will shove a boot into their mouth, I believe it's entirely possible for a highly western biased government, *without such open democracy*, to make Russians bend to something much more like our ideals of moral interaction and geopolitics. But that can only happen by showing that by dealing with the West, they will be shown mercy their leaders wouldn't, and simultaneously by destroying the truly radical and violent elements so swiftly that there remains no question of might makes right.

I am older and I recognise that communism which was fought in Vietnam was promoted by Russia which has been for 100 years the world premier sponsor of lies, terror, tyranny and murder. Its's not all the same. There is right and wrong. There is no comparison between teh Ukranians just war of defense and Putins annexation, terror and knidapping. It is not all the same. Many wars are not just, but some are. You stink of Russian propaganda.

...By trying to raise attention about how *total* zigger death, as in some kind of Russian genocide, is going to make the war so, so much worse.

If you bothered to read what is being written, this is not at all what is being said. People call you naive because everyone else here has Russian Fatigue Syndrome due to Russian fuckery and violence. You somehow try to divorce this Russian fuckery from the Russians themselves, as if the ones doing the raping and pillaging and murdering are just some weird ghostly projections of Russians. Also the ultranationalist ziggers would still keep on calling for the death of various ethnic groups from Poles to the French to Ukrainians. Like I said, everything Russians have to endure, the TZD calls, the nasty insults and so on, ARE REACTIONS TO RUSSIAN VIOLENCE, TO RUSSIAN ULTRANATIONALIST RHETORIC AND TO RUSSIAN WARA OF INVASION. GET THIS THROUGH YOUR FUCKING SKULL.

>>63932214
>Are you a newfag who forgot how protests in Russia
There were some small ones that HOMO quickly broke up. There have been none since. One wonders if Russians are truly peaceful beings in general, or if they're few and far between like Zinin and that little girl. Because if they truly loved justice and peace, they would've started a proper riot. HOMO can't break up a millions-strong demonstration, yet Russians stayed home, still stay home and go to die in Ukraine or apathetically shrug their shoulders, or post on telegram how those Ukronazis deserve it and Baltic peoples will be genocided next.

>>63932226

Yea it kinda reads like I should feel sympathy for Russians similarly like I feel sympathy for a violent and misbehaving animal, as it is a creature acting on its basest instincts and not in control of the wrong scts it does

>>63932229
Was I talking to you?

>>63932222
>If you actually read what was being written
Nobody else was saying that. Other than some insults towards me. My point is being ignored again. By not divorcing Russians from ziggers, you justify the conversion to ziggerdom. If it's "all Russians" and "dude it's just Russia Fatigue Syndrome", then why would they think about being different. You wont *let* them be different.
>It's all just reactions to Russians bro
I'm not saying Ukraine should lay the fuck down and eat shit. Far from it. I'm saying that when you yap and throw spittle about "muh TZD", you are conceding to a self-fulfilling prophecy. God forbid I see this and think that some shit like >>63932130 doesn't sound fucking DERANGED. What is the logical outcome of this point, if you show no mercy to the brainwashed, and give them a reason to question what they were told, you are doing exactly what they *want* you to do.

>>63932235
And still, if a Russian fence sitter saw this he would go "well if this is how the West feels, I'm going to try and kill them, hard."
This was, and is, and always will be the point I was making. You are becoming the western version of a zigger. Replace your use of Russians with Ukrainians.
>Ukrainian state is people. The problem isn't Zelensky, but Ukrainians themselves. Ukrainians are a "collective Zelensky" and that's the issue
You'd fit right in on some vatnik slop forum.

>>63932241
Because they HAVE no agency, it's a totalitarian dictatorship on par with North Korea. If Russian culture is all about the boot and complacency towards the boot, destroying the state and replacing it with something that will instruct them on mercy will fix that. What, are they suddenly gonna grow a spine and commit terror attacks when you can bring the stick out for ziggers specifically, and those Russians already know to shut the fuck up, lest they get the gulag?

>>63932146
>Russians are NOT in control of their state
- it's not putin who fights at the front lines;
- It's not putin who tortures and kills POWs;
- it's not putin who fires artillery and missiles are cities;
- it's not putin who flies the bombers;
- it's not putin who brings the ammo;
- it's not putin who makes ammo and weapons;
- it's not putin who flies FPV drones at random civilians at cities close to the frontline as a part of "human safari", and then posts the videos for other pidors to gloat and do fundraisers for more human safaris;
- it's not putin who makes propaganda;
- it's not putin who builds out their war and propaganda infrastructure;
- it's not putin who tried to assassinate westerners, e.g. the CEO of Rheinmetall;
- etc, etc, etc;
Please tell me about the poor russians who are the victim in all of this, faggot.
There's this famous quote, which goes something like this "yes, we obviously hate stalin for many right reasons, but who actually wrote those five million denunciations?", as in people are always the ones who actually implement those fucked up things.

>>63932146
>Just how Americans were not in control of Afghanistan, or Iraq
Americans were predominantly for war because muh 9/11, stop the revisionism.

>>63932250
sorry but russians must prove that they are worthy of compassion, worth of humanity. russians dont act on instinct, russians are not children, russians are not like you and me. russians are collectively responsible for russism and their actions

>>63932214
>Are you forgetting Zinin?
One man in a country of 140+ million. I think this says a lot more than you'd like to point out to.

>>63932228
>Russians outside Russia are usually somewhat alright
Bruh, the amount of random attacks on ukies abroad by russians (often those whom emigrated 10+ years ago) proves this to be a lie.

>>63932250
>And still, if a Russian fence sitter saw this he would go "well if this is how the West feels, I'm going to try and kill them, hard."
If a person goes all in for a murdering psychopath side because of internet comments of a victim, then he never was a fence sitter, but a closeted zigger who just waited for an excuse. Simple as. I don't go around raping and killing women, despite seeing fucked up shit posted by retarded feminists and roasties each day. Because I'm not in fact some retard.

>>63932250
>Because they HAVE no agency,
If they truly have no agency, then why care for them? We care for ukies specifically because they are normal civilized people who want their freedom and lives.

>it's a totalitarian dictatorship on par with North Korea
No, it's not.
For starters, it's trivial to access unfiltered internet, you literally have random russians even on 4chang and most of them are ziggers.
Also, please point me to millions arrested and jailed at protests. Oh right, that never happened. Because there never were any mass protests. Because only like 0.5% of the russian society even thought about protesting (because they are in fact against the war bullshit) and just a part of that 0.5% even tried something.
Don't get me started that nobody is chaining russians to stay inside russia. Yet those who emigrated are also mostly pro-regime imperialists.

>>63932250
>Ukrainians are a "collective Zelensky" and that's the issue
ukies had how many presidents since 1991? how about russia? simple as

>>63932248
>Feel sympathy for a violent and misbehaving animal
Much like how the rabid posters I've been replying to make me feel. Utterly blind by a dogma that they made in their heads of all Russians = pure evil. And to tell them otherwise, is to get a bunch of meandering arguments about how I'm somehow just wrong and their headcanon of the world says that Russians are evil because they exist.

No thought, only something to justify the cognitive dissonance surrounding war itself. Being upset over Ukraine is perfectly justified. Being the little demons that Russia is *using* to continue to justify it's antagonism towards the world is idiotic. And pointing this out is somehow not an option because to be born in the nation called Russia, is apparently to be evil.

>>63932252
>It's not Putin, etc.,
But it wasn't fucking Ivan Ivanovic who went out one day and said "okay, now we're doing the war, now we're taking Crimea"
That was Putin. Putin has the power to make it stop but doesn't. Again, the Russians are not in control, they are pawns, and SPECIFICALLY what I'm arguing is absolutist TZD, extending to Russia as a whole, not just actual ziggers, will be justification for people to act as his pawns
>Look, the west talks about completely murdering you, your family, and your culture!
Wow I wonder what they'll do, maybe sit down and just accept death or something bizarre.

>>63932257
Oh yeah, so we can justify broad strokes, bro! Zinin was just one guy, the rest are trash, it's not that he's infamous for being a violent, solo rebel who wanted the war to stop above his own life.

>>63932260
>Goes all in for a murdering psychopath side because of internet comments of a victim, then he was never a fencesitter
Why would a Russian find the cause psychotic when, in this very thread, there is people behaving exactly how Russian propaganda wants Russians to think Westerners are.

>>63932250
>Because they HAVE no agency
Poor little Ivan who just suddenly was teleported to Ukraine and mindcontrolled by his leaders to rape, torture and murder. He certainly did not consciously sign a contract to do it and he certainly could not choose otherwise while on the way to Ukraine. No, no, he's a hapless little zombie who the state orders to its bidding.

>>63932270
>Why would a Russian find the cause psychotic
because it's the objective reality, no matter how hard you try to push moral relativism propaganda talking points here faggot

>>63932270
>But it wasn't fucking Ivan Ivanovic who went out one day and said "okay, now we're doing the war, now we're taking Crimea"
Life isn't a video game, retard. Things don't happen because someone wants them to or says things. Things happens because large systems with millions of people involved make them so.

>>63932264
>Then why care for them
Because they are still humans. Shoot one and he will scream just like anyone else. It matters because unless we actually are better than them, what fucking point is there anymore other than nationalism of one nation over another. Millions of innocents live so that millions of innocents may die. Children are still children, old women are still old women. Humans are entitled to the beauty of life, they forfeit that when they choose violence, but people often don't make that choice. Reality is a bitch, violence chooses you. That's what both the Russians and Ukrainians are suffering from

>>63932265
Got you covered bro

>>63932272
poor russia always bullied :´(( russophobia everywhere((

>>63932279
>Because they are still humans
Nah, they are closer to those demons in Frieren. They mimic and ape humanity and culture to get close to you, to make you think that they can be reason with, only for them to attack you.

>>63932278
Wow a gross simplification is... a gross simplification. You pretend like people cannot be lied to. Like they have this magical super agency above people manipulating them, telling them that they should go die in a foreign country to save their own from "genociders".
>>63932275
>Moral relativism is now propaganda
Do not say that having some moral backbone is the same as abiding Russia's cause. My whole specific argument is that behaving like ziggers, begets the ziggers. I want Ukraine free. I want Russia to stop existing as it's current government exists. And to eradicate an entire people to get this done, is an atrocity. Justify it all you want, you are exactly like a vatnik if you think killing an entire people because they exist is good.
>>63932272
You haven't been paying attention.
>Screech about wanting to genocide Russians because they're in Ukraine
>Ivan is told "the West wants to genocide you because we're in Ukraine"
>Ivan thinks about his family
>Ivan decides to go fight rather than lay down and die
>Ivan is now killing innocents in Ukraine for his notion of "the greater good"
>Screech about wanting to genocide Russians because they're *still* in Ukraine
That is what I have been trying to argue the entire time. TZD is good as long as it stays targeted towards ziggers, but I've had nothing but proto-vatniks come in and tell me that no, genocide is justified because it's towards Russia.

>>63932270
>Why would a Russian find the cause psychotic when, in this very thread, there is people behaving exactly how Russian propaganda wants Russians to think Westerners are.
Are you implying the West started this war with its calls for genocide of Russians? I remind you that it was Russia that invaded Crimea and Eastern Ukraine first. Even after Crimean and Eastern Ukraine's invasion, the West tried to play ball and give them the benefit of the doubt. The TZD calls came after 2022. It's also fucking nasty that you imply that a victim of a violent invasion insulting the oppressor is on the same level as the oppressor committing wanton rape, murder and destruction.

>>63932279
I agree with you, but if I were you I wouldn't even waste your time and effort trying to tell people this. A nuanced take will just get you loads of replies calling you a Russian.

>>63932292
>calling you a Russian
Because he literally is

>>63932291
>Are you implying the West started this war with it's calls for genocide of Russians
??? Where are you *even getting this*?
No. But if you respond to Russia behaving like violent niggers, by behaving like the violent niggers that Russia *really, really wants the West to be, in their little Rusky Mir wet dream*

You will beget them.
>Insulting the oppressor
No. That's fine. Ukies can kill Russian soldiers when they place their boots over the border. But don't be stupid. Don't sit there and essentially justify them with stupid shit like "oooh it's ALL the Russians that caused the war!!!" Sympathy is a human trait. Ziggers lack sympathy. The proto-vatniks, the kinds of niggers here who I can see would justify shooting children and women against a wall because "eh they're culturally evil", lack sympathy. You can hate ziggers. And you can have sympathy.

Somehow, being human and displaying this uniquely human capacity, means you're a Russian. Absolutely ironic.

>>63932288
>My whole specific argument is that behaving like ziggers, begets the ziggers
Nope, cool it with hippie shit faggot. One side is the aggressor in this whole situation, once they open up that door there's no going back, no playing "muh both sides", no stopping the reapers. Anything done and said about russians in response is fair game. Yes, that's how things work.

>>63932288
>Ivan is now killing innocents in Ukraine for his notion of "the greater good"
dude theyre not. They know they are the bad guys and they are endlessly proud of it. Even the norks or ISIS goatfuckers are more human than the russist asiatic horde of thieves and gay rapists

>>63932295
>oooh it's ALL the Russians that caused the war!!!
In matters of objective reality the presence of 0.25% of "other russians" can be ignored. That's how life works. Just because some germans were against the Nazis in WW2 doesn't magically change the fact that germans overall were the ones at fault for their shit.

>>63932288
>You haven't been paying attention.
>>Screech about wanting to genocide Russians because they're in Ukraine
Can you prove that this happened before 2014? It must have, otherwise poor little Ivan had no reason to invade Crimea. Can you prove that it happened after 2014? Because if not, then poor little Ivan had no reason to invade Ukraine in 2022 again. Can you prove that TZD and other Russian genocide memes are aufficiently mainstream in Western society beyond 4chan for Ivan to feel scared? Because if not, then Ivan has no reason to fight.

I also remind you, that Russian TV and media since the 2010's has called for genocide of Ukrainians, genocide of Balts, genocide of Finns, of Poles and Romanians, Checnyans, Georgians and other ethnic groups. And yet it is *I* who is at fault and norally reprehensible when I don't give them the benefit of the doubt anymore?

>>63932279
Russians chose violence and forced it upon Ukrainians.

>>63932281
and two out of the three are paragons of stability while one of them is torn between political revolutions and war

>>63932288
>Ivan is now killing innocents in Ukraine for his notion of "the greater good"
Yeah, blowing up civilians for the greater good, raping and torturing POWs for the greater good, kidnapping chilldren for the greater good, doing human safaris for the greater good.
Just because you actually manage to spew such bullshit and nothing clicks in your subhuman mind is enough of a reason of kill you IMO.

>>63932294
I am a russian here. That guy sounds like a limp wristed US hippie and it's fun to listen to his "let me tell you about your people" rants.

>>63932299

Real life isn't a video game. They do it because they know it will piss you off, and make you do stupid shit. "Blind with rage" isn't as poetic as you may think it is.
>pic related
They do shit like this because they own the insults. When they own the insults, it makes people more irate. When they become irate, they say more shit that can work towards Russia's little propaganda machine.

>>63932304
Yeah, and it was worth destroying the German government completely, and introducing a new leg of their culture that appreciated parts of their German history while, in my opinion, going far too hard on suppressing the nastier parts of that history.

>>63932307
>Can you prove this happened before 2014
Wow, guess what, it didn't, and I never said it did. Stop assuming, you get nowhere.
>Poor little Ivan had no reason to invade in Ukraine in 2022 again.
No, except what state media told them, and what their officers commanded, and what the volunteers who were already in were tasked with doing. Even if they knew it was stupid, they already signed the papers. Just the same as it is now, just as anons have argued to me, and I've ignored, when their boots touch Ukrainian soil, their lives are forfeit. That's war.
>Russian state TV has called for the genocide of [other NATO nations, etc]
Wow, so we should behave exactly like that! The Russians sure are evil, let's genocide them too!
If you again, were paying any attention, you'd remember me saying that we should be better than Russians, not English speaking clones of ziggers and vatniks. If the Russians are so evil and immoral, why the hell are we peddling some of the insanity they preach?

>>63932316
Hmmm yes taking my statements seriously despite explicit quotations and repeated dislike of Russia's invasion. Very cool. I *totallllyyyy* think that Russia is doing it for a just cause bro.
You are still a different flavor of zigger if you think genocide will solve this, and not ruin the West.

>>63932324
>Real life isn't a video game. They do it because they know it will piss you off, and make you do stupid shit. "Blind with rage" isn't as poetic as you may think it is.
Its not an online thing, its real inter-russia thing. And it has been for CENTURIES. Dont assume everyone here is American or lives in Internet only.

>>63932334
>Don't assume everyone here is American or lives in the internet only
...We are on /k/.
But fair enough, I'll concede to that.
Nonetheless, if Russians are somehow this brainwashed, this maleable to the will of their despot, does this not mean that they could be changed for the better, if you had the right kind of strongman who will punish the rampant vatniks, and work for the mercy and prosperity of those who don't try to step up and ruin it for everyone? Russian culture, I've been told many, many times, hinges on the prison mentality, slave/master dynamics and all that. Someone who isn't Russian would have to take control, perhaps, to make sure their cultural tendencies or whatever don't override their basic humanity. If their little boner for "evil" truly exists, and this is coming from the apathetic prison culture of Russia, and like with all cultures in all of history, that shit can be bent till it's broke.

>>63932330
He's putting your statement in their true context, to remind you what ordinary Russian men are doing in Ukraine
>>63932324
>If the Russians are so evil and immoral, why the hell are we peddling some of the insanity they preach?
Where do you see this beyond 4chan that it's got you so riled up? Is CNN calling for genocide of Russians like ROSSIYA1 does for various ethnic groups? Is France1 propagandizing Europeans to want to murder Russians? You are equating two completely different things that are separated by massive order of magnitude.

By the way, as for me, Russians can stay on their side of the border. I will not dehumanize them, but I inow how their culture is and how they think. IN GENERAL, NOT *ALL* RUSSIANS. They invade? They will be killed, and I will feel not one ounce of sympathy for them, just like I don't cry after dead Russian invaders now either. They chose their fates. They chose violence. They chose war. These objective facts do not change despite all of the moral relativism.

>>63932318
Yep, those subhumans need to be deported to russia to enjoy the people they run to protect so much. Just like socialists and commies should be deported to DPRK.

>>63932358
>Is CNN calling for genocide of Russians like ROSSIYA1 does for various ethnic groups? Is France1 propagandizing Europeans to want to murder Russians?
Just imagine that based world

>>63932353
Finally you're fucking getting it.

>>63932324
You try to say that we shouldnt corner russia but should give them a chance to change. russians will laugh at that idea. They think the West was bunch of unbelievable morons for not destroying them when they were weak in the 90s. We talk about people who believe that even in international treaties mutually beneficial deals are possible, no they think that even in them there is winner and loser, subjucated and master. Imperialism, Muscowite exceptionalism, aggressive expansionism and constant conflict at its borders is so integral to russia and its culture that without them russia wouldnt be russia anymore.

To think that russia can be changed from the outside with diplomacy is so naive it needs a new word

>>63932353
Yes russians could be changed if we were to occupy them and give them the nazi Germany treatment but a hundred fold that. I will cheer if it happens but I dont think it will or can.

>>63932353
Nah, theoretical possibility doesn't translate to actual possibility of changing russians. Germans and Japanese had normal culture to fall back on while under occupation. Not only nobody would bother to occupy russia, but also there is no other russian culture. The fucked up shit you see is in fact the only thing which exists. Everything else is a think veneer they use for propaganda.

>>63932358
>Where do you see this beyond 4chan?
The context is here and now, specifically this ENTIRE thing started because I went ahead and elaborated on a post another anon made, that had some really poorly though reply basically just calling him a zigger for having an understanding of moral relativism. Don't put words in my mouth or assume this is CNN and shit. This is the morality of dumbasses on 4chan.
>True context
Fuck right off. And telling me to go get shot because I don't want to see children die, independent of their retarded nation or retarded culture is not exactly the most kind way of getting me to understand his objective.

Yes, I know what Russians are doing, I saw Bucha, I saw Izium, I saw that horrifying vid of a Ukrainian family getting shot by barrier troops, and then thrown into a ditch.
But you still need to understand what might make a man do that. Again, there are people in this thread utterly rabid for Russia and they don't even belong to Ukraine. Russians have the problem of falling for lies, people here do not. HOWEVER, that hasn't stopped them from apparently trying to justify similar behavior to the warcrimes Russia committed, because at least it's against Russians.

>>63932368
>f-f-finally you're fucking getting it!
I already said that the optimal form of government for Russia before, and some guy was making some weird pseudo-argument that I'm treating Russians like humans but contradicting myself by treating them like animals, and not catching the nuance of that. It is a culture that *can do better with the right kind of leader.* That is why it's not worth behaving like a zigger and just killing them all upfront. I already got it, no need to get your panties in a twist.

>>63932369
>Shouldn't corner Russia
God no. They need to be bullied into behaving in a civilized manner. I keep stating this, my problem is anons will get all hyper over wanting to utterly obliterate Russia when I believe this to be immoral.

>>63932383
>but also there is no other russian culture
One can always invent a new one. This whole WW2 VICTORY death cult hysteria was constructed in the last 25 years.

>>63932369
Well is anybody really surprised at their ziggerness when all they get is slaps on the wrist and the leaders of their enemies are softies like dementia joe or agent orange or bureaucratic compromisers like scholz or stahmer on the other side of the ocean. Not to mention this behaviour not being an anomaly but US in particular consistently coddling and excusing vatniks for close to a century now

When you put softies and gopniks in a confrontation, softies are always going to be taken advantage off

>>63932395
It traces its origins back to brezhnev who got nostalgic for the good old days in his elderly years. That is also when monke was in his 20s and impressionable

>>63932385
>God no. They need to be bullied into behaving in a civilized manner
To elaborate a little more, they follow the strongman. They cannot be allowed to *pick* a strongman, democracy is an enabler for dictatorships. Demagogues and the like thrive in democracies, and Russia's culture obsession with the strongman is a heavy enabler. Their history tells us this, and you don't need to keep restating that to me.

What I want to happen as a realistic form of TZD, is to overwhelm any potential military capacity they have so swiftly and so mightily, that they bend to an external strongman, some kind of Western mind who will act with the utmost regard for the lowest castes of Russians, and destroy the vatnik/zigger elements of their society when they arise with terrific brutality. They need a carrot, not just the stick. The more you show them the carrot, and the more you beat the unruly with the stick, the more that their cultural predispositions will start to align with your goals. This is what I know of Russian culture.

Irredemptionism is appealing as an easy solution that doesn't contain troublesome complexity with essentially doing nation building, but we converted Japan from a humanistic/animistic culture that infatuated itself with idealism and spirit, to a colder capitalistic machine, that simultaneously managed to convert it's (previously extremely might-makes-right) culture into a product.

>>63932385
>But you still need to understand what might make a man do that.
Right. Incessant propaganda for decades and buckbroke apathetic culture of prison rules will do that. Arrogant and uniquely antagonistic attitude toward the neighboring ethnicities will do that. Thinking that cooperation and mercy are weaknesses to be exploited will do that. That is Russian culture. It will not change. It will never change, a complete and total collapse of Russia notwithstanding. It is pragmatic to realize that, and to arm oneself if ziggers decide that one's place in the world ought to be part of the Russkiy Mir.

Liek I've said and will say again: it is Russian Fatigue Syndrome. Everything anons say about Russians, every vile dehumanization, is a reaction to Russian acts. They chose violence and war first. They've been talking about genociding various ethnic groups first. I will not be sympathetic to them. I will not be compassionate to them. I can empathize, but their plight is wholly and completely their own fault, not some anon's who posts "TZD!" on /k/.

>>63932385
>they just need a better *western* leader and culture
Bruh you're literally paraphrasing Hitler, for average ruzzian your rhetoric is essentially the same as *kill them all and take their resources* putler's media is pushing.

>>63932395
>One can always invent a new one
Just like US was able to invent one for afghanis during a 20 year long occupation, right?

>This whole WW2 VICTORY death cult hysteria was constructed in the last 25 years.
That's a bit reductionist, it started to be built up in later soviet years (e.g. from 1970s) because the state had nothing to fall back on.

>>63932397
>When all they get is slaps on the wrist
That's the problem. But genocide is the excuse they use to maul people. "They're hurting us poor lil Russians oohhhhh we're the victims :("
Shatter their ability to wage war completely. Break them. But don't stoop to the level a Russian would stoop to. That will set an example for them. Make them a nation that's been cucked because of their stately transgressions. Again, like Germany or Japan.

>>63932424
>Their plight is wholly their fault.
Sure. You still look like, and smell like a zigger for turning into a rabid dog who just yaps about slaughtering every Russian ever. They are mentally dominating you. Their propaganda wants people like you to exist. You can be nuanced and still wish for their military to catch every class of explosive device known to man. That is what I said in my first post ITT, that's what I will continue to stand by.
They live on lies, and get their little genocide fantasies from those lies. You, however, know the truth of what they've done, but you are still better than them, are you not? You can feel sympathy, but you don't need to feel empathy. That's the nuance I have spent this entire thread arguing for.

>>63932426
But, they hear that shit and what comes of it, in this hypothetical? The beatdown of their military and reactionary elements, and the mercy towards those who align to the west. What will run through their minds other than a subtle cognitive dissonance and a questioning of their reality. The mistake of the West after 1992 was thinking USSR collapsing meant we could be hands free, and instead not immediately move in to dictate their future, so they wouldn't do this to themselves, and start attacking their neighbors like an untrained pitbull.
>Paraphrasing Hitler
Historical basis for how to solve Russia, too bad that, as the first anon I replied to said, people in power ain't treating Russia as sternly as they should.

>>63932449
>Just like US was able to invent one for afghanis during a 20 year long occupation, right?
Except they didn't really try? They just said you're a democracy now lol and then proceeded to launder MIC money.
I am thinking about Germany and best (South) Korea

>>63932464
>Except they didn't really try?
That's russia-tier revisionism. Hurr-durr we didn't shit the bed, we didn't even try.

>I am thinking about Germany and best (South) Korea
Both had other culture to fall back on, it didn't have to be invented.

>>63932456
>Sure. You still look like, and smell like a zigger for turning into a rabid dog who just yaps about slaughtering every Russian ever. They are mentally dominating you. Their propaganda wants people like you to exist
I've not done this. I'm just tired of Russians. I will kill them if I must, but I don't think they should be slaughtered wholesale. I wish that shithole would not exist as it currently does. I wish it was an amicable neighbor. At the same time, I am not naive enough (like you seem to be) to think that we can comprehensively destroy their wicked culture and mold them again, or that they will change on their own volition.

They are humans with agency - this is my root point. They actively choose violence. They actively choose to spout and believe in ultranationalist propaganda. Russians must choose to be better people who do better choices until I will start giving them the benefit of the doubt again. Until that day I will not feel sorry for them, I will not sympathize with them and I will prepare myself to fight them, unless it's some child, which it rarely is.

>>63932496
This I agree with. The only point which I just personally contend (because as I and other anons have said, am some hippie faggot) is the level of agency they have.
Otherwise? I understand your point.

>>63932472
>Hurr-durr we didn't shit the bed, we didn't even try.
I am not an expert on the Afghan question so you may be right here, just it didn't look like an attempt at nation building in my opinion.
Germans during interbellum and ww2 were exactly like ziggers but they got transformed into most disgusting peace loving ponies you could ever find through occupation and education, seems like a pretty new culture to me

NTA. They have agency. They actively support russian imperialism and consider their country superior, even those that hate putin. I met a bunch of russians outside of russia, they ALL spout the same bullshit and promote kremlin narratives. And infect westerners with it. And it's not even patriotism. They'll steal from their country and do what's best solely for them at the expense of other russians, but they'll still claim they love russia and tell everyone how great it is. The state russia currently is in, is not an anomaly. It is its normal and perfect state.

Until russia stops existing, this shit will continue. But it'll never stop existing. So putin is great for us normal people - he will keep russia isolated, and they can't invent or produce by themselves. Best case scenario is russia is a chink oil colony, completely isolated from west by its own volition (because otherwise there'll be some bleeding hearts that will give nuke secrets to it, again)

For japan and germany they needed complete defeat with occupation. What you describe was achieved with germany in ww1 and the lack of outright visible militaey defeat lead to the backstabbing myth.

That and you can't ignore that at their core germans and japanese were cultured and intelligent people. Mayerial that could be civilized no matter the dictatorships that encased them. Ziggers are the direct result of centuries upon centuries of dysgenic selection by schizophrenic tyrants. They are the direct opposite of who in behavior and intelligence are closer to muslims then europeans

The concept of staying up all night is foreign to you, eh? Of course, I must be a zigger because I'm not sleeping like a good boy.

All Russians must die.

Simple as.

>civilians need not be involved
There no civilians, anyone who supports zigur ideology is potential combatant (including not only Pussisianians)
>The concept of staying up all night is foreign to you, eh?
Yeah sure Ivan

'Basic human morality' requires recognising that national borders should be sacred and that invading someone else's homeland is an unforgivable crime that permanently strips you of your rights as a human., If you do not unconditionally support native rule free of foreign interference you're an apologist for imperialism.

Yes, exactly, that webm is much closer to the absolute desolation or dread of Bela Tarr or even the reveling in disgust of Aleksei German. The tank in the water really doesn't give me Tarkovsky/stalker vibes.
