    Russians aren’t more expendable than any other human being. They’re just being treated as such by their fascist regime. I know it’s easy to start thinking badly of all of them because of the idiotic war, but they’re human beings too. The ones outside of the kremlin at least.

      Sorry, I didn’t mean Russians are expendable of course! (Hence the sad smiley). In fact I was lamenting the way the Soviet and Tsarist governments treated their population. Sorry if this wasn’t clear.

      And I’m sure 90% of Russian soldiers are not happy to fight this war either. I’m sure they’d prefer being home with wife & kids rather than dodging bullets.
