I don't care enough to save and categorize every piece of media I see.

I have the impression that you have been influenced by these pieces of media that have been served to you by people who have an ulterior motive.

Russian soldiers have filmed videos of themselves complaining that they were sent to the front lines for political reasons, or even just as a disciplinary measure.

You speak Russian? Where have you found these videos?

I've seen multiple videos of russian soldiers ass raping each other

Wut.

Stealing toilets and washing machines.

Oh, come on. I thought we were being serious. This is the kind of stuff I expect from people with dog avatars. Next you'll be telling me that Russian soldiers attack with shovels, like the "good" British government asserts.

I mean after a while you have to forgive me for just assuming the worst

Fair point. I just wonder why you don't "assume the worst" when the US government presents you with "intelligence" about the Boogeyman Du Jour... after babies thrown out of incubators, WMDs, Operation Northwoods, Khadhafi giving pills to his soldiers, etc.

When was the last time someone from the american government defected and was performatively assassinated?

Does it have to be 'performative'? I like these arbitrary clauses that are inserted into the requirements, like when supporters of the USG complain about "Russia invading its NEIGHBOR". Because it's so much better when you invade a country that is on the other side of the world that is no conceivable threat to you.

Do you see how one might get the idea that there's good guys and bad guys here?

We good, they bad.

I think the people who didn't kill a million people in Iraq are the good guys, even if they... stole a washing machine. You're free to come and steal my washing machine if that will stop the USG from launching another war of aggression to kill another million people.

I think the people who don't coup governments all over the world, who don't start civil wars in other countries, who don't spend billions and fund NGOs to subvert other countries are the good guys. I think the good guys are the people who aren't occupying my country. I think the good guys are the people who don't protect rape gangs, flood my country with immigrants & try to trans 4-year-old kids.

Of course, I don't believe in good guys, but since you insist.

Personally I think the war has been massively mismanaged and this trickle of escalation and micromanagement from washington seems to be designed to cause as much death as possible.

Like I said, you're not crazy, just maybe sometimes putting up a bit of an act.

But at the end of the day, russia is the one who rolled the tanks to kiev.

It was Ukraine that responded to protests in the Donbas by bombing them and shelling city centers, and launching an "anti-terrorist operation" against the people of that region.

They're the one's talking about empire and the divine dominion putin has over all ethnic russians.

Smells like the BS that it is, but let's say he did. What does it have to do with you?
