(19,917 posts)6. The horror.
Richard showed a clip of (brainwashed) Russian kids in uniform praising their great country/leader/whatever. Reminded me of the Soviet Komsomol (Communist youth). The morally bankrupt Putin has seemingly continued with Soviet methodologies he learned growing up which could partly explain the inhumanity of Russian troops who grew up learning the same.
