      Welcome to Russia Post, a digital platform for commentary and analysis of Russia-related issues, operated by The Russia Program at the George Washington University in Washington, D.C.

      Bro, wtf is this shit.

      So the draft is morally questionable and you’ve seen the footage provided and now you find excuses in Washington, D.C.? Cope harder, buddy.

        The article is written by a Russian about his home region in Russia. Would you rather if someone from fellow St Petersburg Institute have written the article, tovarisch?

          Your “article” is originally (as stated and linked) from Radio Free Europe, a US financed, CIA founded anti-Soviet media outlet with the sole purpose to spread propaganda. So, for one, you’re spreading US propaganda.

          Anyway, the topic was about the systematic, forceful obduction of Ukrainian citizens by their own government, only to imprison them, torture them and then throw them into the meat grinder. So, your whataboutism is using US propaganda to distract away from that, which is shady as fuck, “comrade”.

            Predictably comrade, you are repeating the same old RFE this, RFE that. Straight from your handlers playbook that people have been hearing from years. Who cares? What is so bad about spreading democratic ideals? Is the colour revolution bad because it usurps Kremlin-aligned kleptocrats? Is this why Russia promotes regressive dark enlightenment ideas and being associated with Epstein.

            Well done, you just figured out how draft works 👏👏. But predictably, you won’t mention about Russian authorities drafting students, street raids and coercing businesses to send youths. So, how is Russia better as you are implying? One side is fighting for survival, the other is forcefully recruited to suck their superior’s dick. Cry me a river. Oh and before you say anything, if Ukrainians are indeed tortured by their state, they would not be so motivated to cause Russia a net territorial loss this year and Putin just waivered bond auctions which could lead to the Russian state defaulting. You better leave your office in St Petersburg, tovarisch, before Russia collapses again in just less than a generation. You don’t want to live the 1990s again. The couple of cents you gained from few previous posts should let you buy a plane ticket out of there 🫡

                No problem. Enjoy the plane ride out of Russia. Make sure there are no unhinged doors on your flight. You don’t want to end up like your idol, Prigozhin. You should have joined him on the march to Moscow when you had the chance and maybe your country will be in better position.
