Shocking footage. Unaware Ukrainian troops mistake an approaching Russian tank for one of their own and suffer the terrible consequences. The camera man runs away inmediatly. You can hear the fray of the battle behind. vid: https://files.catbox.moe/7neb54.MOV

    So like unless these guys are confirmed nazis I’m not sure we should be celebrating this.

    Yes, they were Ukrainian soldiers, at least as confirmed by Russian news sources. Feel free to celebrate now. 🥳

    Those are still 8 people whose parents will never see again.

    There’s no need to humanize Nazis. They are humans in the sense that they share a genetic-biological resemblance to us, but in no way they are deserving of any empathy. They had their humanity stolen from them, and they’ve become imperialist weapons that need to be destroyed. Their families, therefore, were not hurt by this tank, instead, they were hurt by the efforts of nazification of Ukrainian society promoted by imperialist NATO countries.

    It’s a tragedy, indeed, but fuck Nazis.

      Right but it’s not like every Ukrainian soldier is a nazi. Like if they were alive then fuck them 100% but unless we know beyond a shadow of a doubt that these people are nazis then I just don’t feel comfortable celebrating their death. but to each their own.

        This is your anarchist and liberal roots speaking for you. The Ukrainian military has been massacring the Russian ethnic population of Donbass for 8 years already. If you read the article I linked, you’d see that these soldiers attacked other regions before getting blasted in the face.

        Stop humanizing Nazis, because the Ukrainian military has consistently accepted fascist paramilitary organizations inside their regiment, such as the Azov Battalion and Pravy Sektor. Their leaders, their line of command is composed bottom-up by Nazis. So even if the individual soldiers reject the Nazi ideology (most of them do not), they are led and commanded by those who subscribe to Nazism.

        So again, yes, it’s tragic that human lives are lost, but if those who are being killed preach an ideology of death and genocide, then their deaths should be definitely celebrated, and not a single tear should be shed for them.
