A grim milestone for #Russia was reached this morning:
1.5 million casualties in their stupid #UkraineWar

The world is a very stupid place full of very stupid people who don't understand the stakes with rising #fascism. Russia shows them where it leads. Do they see?

Звідки такі "наміри" тотального винищення цілого народу (а далі й інших народів)? Між іншим, до совєтських гітлерівці поставилися практично так само, після "побиття глечиків" між двома диктаторами — німецьким і совєтським
