      Came here to ask the same-ish thing. I’m guessing field medic? Only reason to need scissors at the ready I can think of.

      Either that, or the Russians are using some shitty razor wire.

    Stop utilizing animals for war propaganda. There are lots of animals on both sides and they are all victims of what humans are doing.

      Usually dogs and cats are just there. Hungry and lonely, abandoned by their owners or having no alive owners. Between feeding and not feeding such pets soldiers choose the first one. And the pets start living with the soldiers. Then the soldiers make photos of their new pets. So, it’s not propaganda.

      And there’s an important correction: animals are victims of what Russians are doing.

              It can be viewed as propoganda, just as your idiotic blithering defending the ruzzian orcs is definitely propaganda. The difference is that the kitty picture is “good” propaganda, that will help end the war and stop harming anumals. Your shilling is causing harm to other animals.

              Why don’t you get on the animal’s side and stop helping the ruzzian orcs harm them?

                  You didn’t need to. Hint. Tacit approval of their actions exists when you clearly call out the Ukrainians for defending themselves against the Russian aggressors, which you did.

              You voiced disapproval in the Ukrainians, but not the Ruzzians that caused it. You support the Ruzzians. You refuse to denounce them, making it very clear that your support them

          You would think if I was trying to make a propaganda campaign out of something I wouldn’t have freely admitted to finding them in my ‘Ukrainian War’ folder, and would have more than three to share. But have it your way - useful idiots always do.

        It is much more than that. It is very obviously an attempt to use cute animals to raise sympathy for the Ukrainian Army. Everybody likes pictures of cute animals so that is being exploited. For months hundreds of pictures like this have been posted on reddit systematically. If you don´t see the pattern and think that is not an organized propaganda campaign you are simply being naive.

            I honestly believe no reasonable person thinks that reacting to expansionism by trade agreements and diplomacy with counter expansionism by war is justified. If someone is misguided enough to believes it is, cat pictures will probably not help.

              Most people feel before they think. The fact you didn’t consider that leads me to conclude your definition of “reasonable” is flawed.

                You obviously don´t understand at all what reasonable means. Something is reasonable when it is based on logic reasoning (and not on emotion). That is exactly what makes it reasonable.

                Reason is the capacity of applying logic consciously by drawing conclusions from new or existing information, with the aim of seeking the truth (…) Reason is sometimes referred to as rationality Source: Wikipedia

                  You are naive and inflexible. That is unreasonable.

                  Also that’s not the definition of reasonable. So you are inexact as well. Bad combination.

          “Organized propaganda campaign”
