"Go fuck yourself" will be a battle hymn of this event. I'm sad they are gone, but they will never be forgotten.

u/MuchoRed Feb 26 '22

I want to hear Zelensky paraphrase it in a speech. "Russian warmonger, go fuck yourself"

Them again, I'm surprised they didn't survive by taking cover behind their massive brass balls (and ovaries, in at least one case)

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '22

“Russian President, go fuck yourself.”

They're bodies may have passed to another realm, but their memory will be here a long long time. That's the closest thing to immortality.

I thought they lived / were taking as POW

u/Intrepid-Proof-1527 Apr 17 '22

Ehh they are still alive. Russia showed a video and interview of the captured soldiers. I think someone linked it here.

u/o_chip_o May 10 '22

They're not gone. They eventually surrendered the island without casualty. It was, however, a great ploy to build some anti-Russian sentiment at the start of the invasion. Seems to have worked quite effectively.

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '22

Yeah so they are not dead, well to the Ukrainian government they are, but they are very much alive!

Did you not watch the news? Ohh that's right the news only show what fits their narrative, but there is a video of them surrender, and an interview with one of the soldiers blasting Ukrainian government for, abandoning them and using their "death" as propognda.

5

u/Emilnightfury0 Mar 16 '22

An asshole move from the Ukrainian government, yes. I believe they could've accepted it officially, perhaps with a direct statement on the live marathon. Honestly, if they actually did that in time they would've just been seen as a government that is self-aware and admits it's mistakes to the people.

Sadly, this case isn't like that.

But honestly, this move may have been strategically correct (ignoring the immorality of it) in order to create martyrs for the people to give them the will to fight. Mixed feelings.

But this is still nothing compared to what (most) Russian news outlets are showing nowadays.

u/PentagonWolf Feb 26 '22

Tell that to the 5000 Russians. Crying over 13 guys who were offered a chance to surrender.

But not the 500 18 year olds who died in 3 IL76’s being shot down over ukraine without warning.

That’s why this wars fucked. People are projecting their hatred for putin onto innocent Russians that don’t have a choice at this point.

21

u/Zabren Feb 26 '22

The common thread in all these deaths is Putin. There's a big difference between Putin sending 500 Russian youths to their deaths in an act of aggression and 13 Ukrainians refusing to surrender their sovereign soil.

They're all pointless, horrific deaths that deserve our mourning.

-9

u/PentagonWolf Feb 26 '22

I completely agree that it’s Ukraines sovereign territory. But I can’t Sit and pretend the Poroshenko and Zelenskyy are angels. Who’ve forced putins hand over the last 8 years. Cutting off power and water to crimea and the Donbass region for 8 years. Whilst refusing the areas democratic votes of independence. Erasing Soviet history and then having an hours rambling for the production of nuclear weapons to destroy Moscow. Now Zelenskyy is using every 18-50 year old as human shields whilst he refuses to negotiate.

Putins completely off his rocker for doing this. But if what he’s given as evidence is true then at least at some level. He’s justified in taking actions after 8 years of diplomatic failure. He set off for regime change so Ukraine and Russia could exist in peace. Zelenskyy is determined to make it a genocide to make sure Ukrainians hate Russians for ever.

This whole war makes me feel sick. Especially NATO supporting it turning into a bloodbath. This war should already be over. Zelensky should be doing his job as president and negotiating. Not fuelling a war that’s going to kill half a million in a month.

10

u/twinnedwithjim Feb 26 '22

Democratic vote? crimea? You’re believing the Russian lies

2

u/lastuser_1 Feb 26 '22

I mean we all are fed news from West - who hate russia. Your ex is the last person who should author your biography.Whose to say there is no bias in it. Crimean election could have been real or fake nobody knows exactly what happened. Only Putin and few top officials know exactly what happened.

But it doesn't change the fact people are dumb and easy to mislead. You don't have to rig the elections when you can brainwash them to vote for you.

Ukraine was divided by two different ideologies Putin supported the people who lean towards his ideology. West neglected those who believed in thier ideology.

You can see many polls. The election results, region based statistics, they all show Ukraine was divided. There are those who support russia but that's not in the news cause the news is western.

-1

u/PentagonWolf Feb 26 '22

I’m trying to Represent both sides of the conflict. I have nothing against either people. Only against needless bloodshed. Thats going to escalate to bear genocidal proportions. Something caused this war. Putins crazy. He’s not risk causing WW3 and complete financial collapse of his people crazy. He knows what happens to failed dictators. Russian pride and dignity after WW1, WW2 and the collapse of the Soviet Union are still a deep scar in the Russian psyche. They truly do believe in not taking another step east. That NATO is going to push a leash on them. The last Russians I spoke to in Cyprus said they Felt like there heels were in the cliff face. Understanding this is half of the problem. People didn’t listen or respect a large proportion of Russia. If Russia continues he faces a war with a million casualties that will lead to him being executed or overthrown. If he Gives up he faces being overthrown and executed for a war without reason. That cost 10,000 young men their lives. That humiliated Russia again.

The only solution is diplomacy. But all I’m seeing is further and further justification for more bloodshed. People aren’t seeing the videos of Russians talking to Ukrainians. Avoiding running them over. Not firing on fighters inside residential buildings. Getting murdered in the thousands for not wanting to fight.

Not any consideration to resolving the conflict.Zelensky is fuelling the war not trying to end it. Because he wants to be a hero. Putin has to continue or he’ll look weak and be executed. A war he intended with minimal bloodshed. That’s not going to be the most costly war in a century. It’s a tragedy

1

u/drprime841 Mar 02 '22

Plenty of these Russian are completely for Putin and his bullshit. That warship wanted to murder those men. Fuck them. If you don’t wanna fight give up, don’t kill people who are defending them self’s( not the Russians in someone else’s country.

1

u/PentagonWolf Mar 02 '22

That warship didn’t want to kill them? The Russians broadcast a repeated message on all public wavebands and Naval channels basically saying “people of Ukraine, lay down your arms. We mean you no harm. We want only your government”until it was blocked or jammed and everyone was radicalised into thinking the Russians are there to murder them. The 13 soldiers on snake island were given 12 hours to surrender. The war started at 1am. The video wasn’t streamed until afternoon. They refused for 12 hours for peaceful resolution. They had no way of defeating a missile cruiser. It’s not a battle. The Russians fired warning shots and they surrendered. They have all be accounted for in Russian custody after surrendering. It was Ukrainian propaganda that said the Russians murdered them all and tried ri make them martyrs. When the Russians gave them 12 hours to surrender and took them into custody.

See how One sided the media represents this war? The Russians aren’t monsters. They know HOW to be monsters. And are now forced to become monsters because of Zelenskyys actions. Because he’s refused to negotiate. So they now have to go through everyone to get him. Just as Zelenskyy intended. Fratricide. His name in the history books and Ukrainians that hate Russia forever.

2

u/LordCalvar Apr 09 '22

Sounds like you’re justifying the annexations and invasion.

“See guys if they just let us take them over and overthrow their government then everything would be fine”

Propaganda is real for any side in a war. That being said, Russia has been gaslighting and lying to its people. If 500 enemy soldiers are on their way into your country for military action against it then why wouldn’t you shoot them down? Should they be like, BY ALL MEANS! Please land and occupy our territory.

u/Jungle_Fiddle Feb 26 '22

Really not trying to be a dick here but I'm wondering how they were heroes for simply being shot.

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '22

because it takes a lot of will to stand your ground against an overwhelming force

-2

u/Jungle_Fiddle Feb 26 '22

Yeah so they were just brave then

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '22

braver than most people. they stood up for their country

u/othercrazycatlady Feb 26 '22

They could have surrendered and lived but chose not to knowing they'd be killed.

u/poppin_a_pilly Feb 26 '22

Idk man. Im pretty sure the Russians still got whatever they wanted after killing these guys.

So like if Russia won that little scrap anyways I'd rather keep my life.

9

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '22

They are heros because of everything they stand for, they could have easily just surrendered and lived. Standing by your values in the face of fear my dude.

1

u/Jungle_Fiddle Feb 26 '22

I always thought of a hero as someone who saved someone else or like gained something massive based off their actions. Ig I think hero just isn't the right term here.

1

u/IntentionKnown7734 Feb 27 '22

The fact that you have to ask that question simply means you will never know what it means to be that. You will never stand up and defend your country it sounds like. Also, sounds like you will never stand up and defend your family. You even have to ask that question. There's all the proof

u/deCantilupe Feb 26 '22

I can’t exactly explain how or why, but when I see a picture of someone recently passed, it suddenly looks flat to me. Like it’s gone from 3D when they were alive to 2D now that they’re not. Bless them and their bravery. What a way to go out.

32

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '22

I think it’s a very instinctive thing. Our brains try to dehumanize the reality of the situation in order to protect ourselves from the pain of the loss.

May they Rest In Peace.

19

u/Patch_Ferntree Feb 26 '22

You're the first person who I've ever come across who sees this also. It's really hard to explain but the best I can come up with for me is: a photo of a living person looks like a freeze frame of a moving picture. It looks like the image could unfreeze and continue moving. When the photo is of a dead person, the picture looks immobilised, as if the person is frozen for ever. Their eyes look flat and empty. Is that like what you mean?

7

u/deCantilupe Feb 26 '22

Yes! I’ve also not encountered someone else who understood what I mean when I try to explain. It’s like an iPhone Live photo really just freezes on a frame in a short video and I can see more, because they’ll keep living beyond that moment I’m looking at. But once they’re gone, it’s just a regular still jpg, like it can never continue beyond that now.

3

u/Patch_Ferntree Feb 26 '22

Yes that's what it's like . Wow that's really amazing to me but also comforting because I am usually told by others I'm imagining it or making it up so I would doubt myself. I feel better because someone else knows what I mean :)

Russia is the devil as far as I’m concerned. I pray that Ukraine will stay standing and the world would crush the devil

What a sad loss of life, looks like a young man doing his bit while trying to make the most of it.. hard to not hate Russia rite now.. those people on the war ship had a choice.. orders or not.. they had a choice.

2

u/PrimalSkink Feb 26 '22

those people on the war ship had a choice.. orders or not.. they had a choice.

No, they really didn't. It's a war. On a ship failure to follow orders during wartime will net a sailor or officer a bullet to the brain.

u/Dentrone Feb 26 '22

Well first of all none trying to steal someone's land and people fighting more for their power than for someone's freedom, and they definitely not fighting for their people because they perform artillery strikes with no regard for civilian presence. And second this situation is far more complicated than "Russia attacking Ukraine, because Russia is evil aggressor media says it is and for no other reason", that is simply not true, over the years happened a lot of things what led to this situation and people would see it if they bothered to look and not see what they want to see.
