If I was going to volunteer for combat I would expect this sort of thing. Walking for 40 minutes? The horror!

[–] workerONE 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He meant he walked for 40 minutes to get a cell phone signal

Again: What do you expect? It’s a war zone. I’m surprised it wasn’t farther.

That shithead was ok with killing people for money, and now he doesn't like being treated like a shithead?

Talk about FAFO. Get lost, asshat.

Aren't all soldiers signing up to kill people for money, yes he's on the opposing side and we can hate him for supporting a fascist war machine that's trying to annex a soverign nation; but I don't see how we can hate him for the simple act of being a soldier unless we're prepared to say that about all of our own soldiers as well.

Some, probably most, sign up to protect their homeland not to kill lots of people. I think such motivation would get you kicked out of some armies, in fact. No one wants a psychopath in their squad!

Don't forget make money, get out of their shithole small town and be a cool action hero guy. It's a rare soul that's purely motivated by ideology or identity.

In context, I think OP meant "for money and considering nothing else". If you're not with a sketchy mercenary company you can maintain a certain level of expectations about who it is you end up killing. This guy apparently wasn't worried about that.

He will sprout many sunflowers.

I recall seeing this video a few months ago--possibly last winter.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

The first part of the video was a few months ago at the beginning of his deployment.

The CCP is behind him, counting the rubles.

I saw the video. I forget what happened to him. Edit: oh duh this is the video
