lol Russia invaded a sovereign nation for literally no reason, got 100,000+ of its people killed and many more injured, did/is doing a fuckton of warcrimes, and you still have people going "It's the West's/NATO's fault" lmao

My "Favorite" part of this is the arguments that Russia was forced/duped into this war like Putin hasn't been repeatedly brutally loving with Russia's neighboring states and any Russian region that doesn't want to be part of a "federation" that only really gives a poo poo about Moscow/Saint Petersburg since he got into power.

I mean at this point why bother with a parade at all. Just cancel it and say its to ensure no resources are wasted on pomp and ceremony as they are all being sent to the front so that 'our boys' have everything they need, etc.

I wish they'd spend more on their parades, they could withdraw all their troops and gear from Ukraine and have a huge parade at home instead! Would solve a lot of their problems.

Why would you cancel such an important and symbolic event due to some far away unimportant 3 day military operation where everything is going fantastic and the soldiers are very well equipped and everything is going extremely according to plan? Doesn't make sense to me.

To be fair, getting the VDV in the parade might be a bit of a mixed message if they were attending, what with all the zinc coffins they'd be parading through Moscow.

Neat!

Couldn't have the T14 Armata there because it might have backfired and then burst into flames, startling Putin and causing a double incident because they would have to whisk him away to clean his diaper mid parade AND put a fire out.

Putin is a real piece of poo poo.

And he's losing.

No dice for Russia.

I mean, russia has basically stolen everything else they've ever built or "accomplished", I can't see why this would be any different

e: If there's one thing I've learned from this whole invasion, is that everything remotely impressive or positive that was credited to the USSR, is in all actuality wholly from the people of the satellite states they occupied and oppressed

Absolutely worth a read/watch - Marjane Sartrapi's parents were leftists who fought to defeat the czar only to have the govt that took over be more restrictive. I learned so much about the Iranian Revolution I'd never even known just from her experience of living through it.
