I'm amused by the implication that Russians and Ukrainians have a strong, brotherly bond; but that Russians are perfectly fine with shooting their brothers, taking their brother's land. Even the cheery Russian propaganda paints Russians as monsters.

They are saying that they only destroy westernised deviations, liberating true pure Great Russia. Some Russians really believe that. Turns out this "deviation" is the entire Ukrainian nation, tens of millions of humans.
I know some brothers who are like that. Maybe a brotherly bond isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Considering that the second story in the bible is about the first brother to ever exist being killed by the second one, maybe it is. /s
It is just a very unequal brotherly relation. And big brother just cannot accept he is not welcome.
Not brothers like the twins in Breaking Bad. More like Data and Lore.
Jesus Christ. What fucking bond? My fiancée is Ukrainian. They fucking hate Russians. Not just now but always. They tried fucking with Ukraine for forever, even before there was Ukraine as it is now.
This is just weeb shit but for slavic nations
I am ukrainian and I confirm.
There are brotherly ties, relatives, but it's not a healthy family, russians always thought they are the only ones that matter, the rest is deviation.
Now it's so much more clear, ukrainians who were russian speaking and mildly russian friendly now hate russia more than anyone, being bombarded does that, they feel betrayed.
Got a Ukrainian family friend from the east side of Ukraine, spoke Russian as her primary language and knew some Ukrainian.
Once the invasion started, she vowed to never speak Russian again and spent months trying to get fluent in Ukrainian.
Wasn't Zelensky (I probably misspelled that) also primarily russian speaking before he went into politics?
He was, yes. He speaks perfectly now.
Yeah, most of my formerly russian-speaking friends are like that. Tl
I had a weird coworker that claimed to be Ukrainian and is married to a Russian woman. Mysteriously had to go see his dying family member right before it all started and he has not been heard from again. I just feel like he was some kind of weird Russian spy or something. He would call her 10 times during his shift and spoke in Russian and had an air of manipulative "kindness" that made you really wonder what the fuck this guy was involved with.
This is just weeb shit for slavs
New quote unlocked. Thank you.
hell don't most people around russia detest the country? like even if two countries with slavic influence hate each other they will probably shake hands on hating russia more..
Russification doesn't leave many friends
Some Russians have bonds though and are defecting!
That last sentence got me.
I bet they think Israel and Palestine are happy friends too
Unfortunately vatniks are too dumb to acknowledge that milk went bad, and will continue to drink it like nothing happened
"Would you look at that! NATO shat in my pants again"
I have an unhealthy fascination with far right shit heads, chief among them Alex Jones. And as an avid listener of Knowledge Fight I can tell you that the predictions once the invasion started didn't just age like milk; Enough cheese was made to feed the entire sub-saharan subcontinent.
A few months later...
Giving that they had been already shooting up each other in dpr the post is a satire
