One of my dogs died suddenly yesterday, so reading about them shooting a guy's dog definitely puts me in the "Let's re-create the highway of death with retreating Russians" camp momentarily.

Besides my pure revulsion I’m left wondering how soon will we get back to folks concern trolling over the Ukrainians showing POWs on tv. Really puts a damper on the don’t struggle too hard and it won’t be so bad arguments as well. If they’re doing that to mayors I wouldn’t want to be an MP or central government official, caught by the Russians.

One morning they did a supersonic show of force at low altitude right over the base and my inner 5 year old thought it was the coolest thing ever.

What I'd do is get a list of names of all the Russian soldiers involved in Ukraine and put out an international arrest order for all of them. There's a lot of countries that ignore these orders, but I suspect Europe will be quite happy to arrest and jail Igor Ivanov the Russian conscript when he tries to take a vacation in Latvia.

psydude posted:Probably not ordered so much as given a blind eye by the officers who are criminally responsible for it regardless. They haven't surrendered, they're still belligerents, highway of death it up*. They'll just be redeployed after the ground's hardened up a bit and their armour can be more effectively employed so put the slipper in while they're stumbling, not when they've picked themselves up and gotten themselves set. If they surrender, great, send them somewhere they can get habituated to a functioning social democracy before being returned en masse to Russia when the war's over. And (if we're convinced they like social democracy a whole lot) war's over, we'll even let you return with your arms. Once I start reading about Russian forces raping their way through a daycare centre, that's when I start down the road of "Shame you couldn't possibly tell what a white flag from a Russian one through the thermal optics you were definitely using at the time you called in the strike". e: Ukraine, if able, should HoD it up. Nuclear war isn't in my diary and I'd like it to stay that way. IPCRESS fucked around with this message at 13:58 on Apr 3, 2022 |

As a general rule, any Russian who ends up a conscript comes from poor family, so no foreign vacations for them. The whole poo poo-show is so corrupt that families just bribe doctors to write their sons some fake issues that get them medical exemption. I met a bunch of Russian exchange students in university and not one of them had served, or was going to serve. They were rather perplexed that not only had I served in FDF, I hadn't gotten beaten/raped there either. Warden fucked around with this message at 15:47 on Apr 3, 2022 |

Especially when you still have a national army and partisan resistance movement out there fighting for you in the field.

Yeah, I'm trying to think how it could get a whole lot worse, and where the line *should* be if not here, and not coming up with a whole lot. I guess they could be systematic about it, but I feel like the russian military attempting systematic anything is doomed to failure right now

CommieGIR posted:Russians troops are already executing and sexually assaulting people, honestly at this point resist however you can. No, its about narrative control and getting the most bang from your resistance life. Hospitalizing half a platoon of dipshit conscripts in exchange for a mass murdered village is a bad trade when the Ukrainian Army still stands and fights. if zelensky dies tommorow and a puppet government controlled by the kremlin gets installed, then sure, go hog wild. If General high division commander decides to eat lunch in your kitchen, poison that motherfucker or stab him with a kitchen knife. that village would be way more valuable alive, and passing intelligence/as a supply cache to Ukrainian resistance than they are dead in a pit.
