I'm glad the Russians are incompetent in all aspects of war.

This article is i think about the brutality and not anythinc about the competence/incompetence
Did you even read it or just the headline?

Why do you think my comment was about the content of the article?

[–] Little8Lost@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Because you did write it in the commentsection to the post specifically about the article
To some extend i agree to your sentiment but it feels offtopic/disconnected to the reason behind the article
I would even argue that the likely reason why the solider survived was not the stupidity of the russian soliders but that they did not double check -> lazyness

My comment was a tongue-in-cheek remark about Russia being so incompetent that they couldn't even cut a throat correctly (and that being a good thing because he survived).

You're trying to read way too much into it. It's pretty common for comments on Lemmy to be about a situation in general rather than specific references to the posted article.
