Volunteers??? I guess it’s better than being sent to Ukraine.

Seeing the POW exchange whereas the Ukrainian men were scrawny and shaved heads, “volunteers” is an oxymoron.
Russian dogma stigmatizes human worthiness. Everyone is expendable, more-so the lower working class, regardless of social hierarchy. The rich have the privileges whilst the commoners are to obey and serve.

If anyone is reading this and is feeling a bit skeptical, [here](https://www.youtube.com/@proekt_media) is the group being referenced as the source. Note that I can’t identify the exact source (it just links [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zMIsLejGAg) video), so I am not sure what the article is referencing exactly. I’m pretty pro Ukraine but I’d take this with a pinch of salt given how little there is to cross examine

We also eat babies. Remember the infamous Chinese baby soup from 00s? Yeah, that was actually Anapa, Krasnodar Krai.

Good old russian tactic, testing their own weapons on their own machines, like they used to do with their suicide bomber dogs that were trained on their own tanks so they blew up their own tanks.

I really think they mean „voluntold“.
This is giving me serious Unit 731 vibes…

(Don’t read this if you’re faint of heart…)
Since RuZZia has illegally occupied parts of Ukraine since Feb. 2014, I wouldn’t assume that their „volunteers“ are RuZZians.
Honerable Laika mention. 🫡
Aperture laboratories is in Russia?
Next in the news: Russia replacing expensive crash test dummies with human volunteers.
They trying to trigger CTE in these “volunteers”?
