These people have chosen barbarism.

    Honestly anybody on either side taking glee in the horrific deaths is horrible by my standards.

      Sorry but I quite enjoyed knowing with absolute certainty that all the azovs and most of aidar in mariupol got absolutely fucked.

      The non-banderite persons and the impact of the war on the working people? Sure. I agree.

        Celebrating the enemy’s deaths is fine. But seeking out footage of their carcasses being eaten by animals is just :huey-lewis: in the making

          yeah it's deeply disturbing to want to watch people die.

          also if the media can get you to dehumanise Russians to this degree you would have been in support of the holocaust. It is very obviously troubling how easily people have been whipped up to wish death on an entire nation of people that they also heavily racialise

          Only the few that were left hiding in the industrial works. A shitload of them died until they finally holed up there.
