Life is so surreal. You could spend decades just living your life, then you get drafted to war, you get captured, then executed just like that. These people had stories and lived their lives up until this point, their legacy is a news article and this drone footage.

Russia has zero consequences for breaches of International Human Rights, Geneva Convention, Anti-Torture Convention, Human Rights or the ICC.
India, China, Belarus, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela allow and support this behaviour.
Take a personal stance and refuse to personally buy anything from those countries, wherever possible. Individuals can make a difference if enough people do it.

I’m of two minds. Fist thought, this is more bad news for the few fit and capable Russian grunts out there. What Ukrainian fighter seeing this is going to give a vanquished foe — particularly those with aptitude — the opportunity to perhaps fight again another day after a prisoner swap? They’ll take the feeble and lame prisoner, but leave any actual warriors in the field to feed the sunflowers. That’s only human. But then the second thought, is that massacre about creating the perception in Russian soldiers that, their fellows having perpetrated atrocities, no mercy awaits those who surrender?

How anyone thought that geneva conventions would be honored when shit really hit the fan…was beyond delusional. The only reason why there isnt bigger use of forbidden weapons/tactics is that the opposite site can retaliate in kind, not some “rules”.

I try to approach every conflict with “every side is probably a different shade of gray” thought in mind, but this one… Russia is straight out fucking evil.
