    They “volunteered” to help the Russian invasion, just not explicitly in a combat role.

    They got there, and discovered the Russian military isn’t big on free will, and were sent into combat…

    I don’t feel bad at all.

    Because they signed up to help the Russian invasion in exchange for money.

      Unless you have a source you’re not sharing, you have no idea what they signed up for or why.

        Let’s connect the dots for you:

        • Russia invaded a sovereign country and is committing genocide.
        • These people signed up to “help” Russia
        • That makes them complicit in genocide and therefore undeserving of sympathy.

        It doesn’t fucking matter exactly what kind of “help” they had in mind; any support for Russia makes them guilty.

        I do, it’s the article your commenting on so I didn’t link it:

        At least two men who went to Russia expecting to work as “helpers” in the army have died while fighting at the front, their families have said.

        I think I’m just gonna block you now tho, don’t want to forget and then try to explain stuff again.

        Have a good life, hope it gets better.

          You really seem to like living life on easy mode where nothing challenges your preconceived ideas of binary simplicities. Pity.
