My classmate got killed by Ukraine like this. My colleague was killed by a Russian drone. I know that people like to laugh and this is a soulless trashcan of the internet but you should know that you’ve touched something in me and I hate you.

Wait, you have a classmate that was in the russian invasion and killed by Ukraine? And then another colleague killed by russia? Assuming that they where fighting russia at the time, or where they just collateral?

No one here (that I know of) is belittling the loss of life this stupid conflict has caused, but other then be angry at russia for invading another nation what are you expecting? Silence over the deaths?

He's a civilian doctor who went to work in the "new territories" (occupied ones) . Not the best decisions of his, but still he wasn't a combatant. Propaganda loves to paint people in colors, I don't expect you to understand.

The colleague was a girl I started to work with just after I left Russia. She went to Lvov (Lviv) to visit parents but then decided to Kiev. Again, not the best decision of her, but this one I expect you to understand.

I'm not trying to change things here. I know this is a shithole, but then I just have an urge to show that this kind of jokes (haha collateral damage) feel different when you are Russian even 4 years into the conflict, worse with Ukrainians.

Sorry for loss. War is really worse then hell because it takes the innocent as well. Putin and war mongers like him that caused her undeserved death deserve a more of punishment then this earthly world can give him imho
