I understand that you’re not comfortable with the practices of the Russian military. Would you prefer that I not talk about them?
People in my country did fucked-up shit too. I was born in a territory that was founded as a white-separatist colony. I’m okay with discussing the injustices in that history.
Oh, also, for me, it’s not “the R word”. It’s just “rape”. I’m okay with saying that white men in my country used to get away with raping black women. That was bad. Are you okay with saying that the Russian army today is bad when it rapes Russian men?

It’s not about discomfort, it’s more that instantly jumping to talk about SA when someone confronts your “Russian nukes don’t work anymore” conspiracy theory just reeks of insecurity, it’s like you know that there’s nothing to back the position but you still need to screech RUSSIA BAD 24/7, even if it involves making jokes about SA victims.
Hmm, I think any screeching you’re hearing is purely in your own imagination.
Looking back over the thread, I initially mentioned the Putin army’s habit of raping its own recruits as an example of the Putin regime being a horribly failed state and thus probably an incapable maintainer of nuclear weapons. You responded with what looked like a rhetorical distraction, so I insisted that my example was actually relevant. You’d prefer not to discuss the details, maybe because they involve SA of men, but that’s okay, we can gloss over that.
Even then, my point still stands: Do you really think you should stand up for Putinism and the way that it actually treats the Russian people?
