Ok, I don't think we should victim blame, but when someone asks you if you would like to join the military of a country currently invading another country, and they've already used up all their prisoners in penal battalions... Don't believe them when they promise you a cushy rest echelon job, ffs.

Tbf he didn't go to Russia to join the military. Similar to ther stories that I've heard, he was offered a job in Russia, and then forced into the military.

Yeah but same thing. Why would you trust Russia when there have been stories about them literally doing this for over a year now?

Also even if they were telling the truth you're still living in Russia.
