    The youth are gone, dead or fled. In Western Europe there's a few around my neighbourhood. They wear military style clothes, camouflage combat trousers or military green t-shirts. There's one I work with who as an avatar of himself as a soldier. I find it kind awfully cringeworthy. The US really did a number on these peoples' minds, it's reminiscent of the Israeli crybully aggressor/victim complex with a host of contradictions.

      If they're so proud to be UKR soldier, why are they a thousand miles away from the front?

        Same reason why I imagine NAFO morons refusing to fight in ukraine. The proof is in the pudding they say.

        As Butt-Head once said, when Beavis asked if it would be cool if a bunch of planes dropped a bunch of bombs on them:

        "No way, Beavis. Bombs would, like, hurt and stuff. It's only cool when bombs are dropped on CNN." the-more-you-know

      There are so many young Ukrainians who moved to my city in Canada in the past 18 months or however long. I’ve made acquaintances with like a half dozen of them and they’re all super nice, politics or the war have never come up in discussion at parties or whatever. They’re just young adults like me trying to live and enjoy their lives. Every Ukrainian immigrant ive met in my city so far tho seems to have to have very adequate funds based off number of tattoos and designer clothes they have acquired this year lol. I’m guessing young Ukrainians without money from their parents or otherwise have not fared so fortunately.

    This kind of mental gymnastics and denial reminds me of the Bloggs couple from the movie When The Wind Blows.

      Except Bloggs were innocent victims of the propaganda, while this shitstain is profiting off of the Bloggs of this world.

        Glad to see you also made this distinction. Still, it saddens me when I see victims of propaganda siding with their oppressors - and a lot of them are so deep in denial they simply do not accept any contrarian facts... but I digress.

        However, to a point, I think the elites have started to believe their own propaganda.
