Do not celebrate the death of soldiers. Blame Putin.
It is a quirk of fate I was born in the US rather than Russia. If I were over there, I don't know how I would handle being drafted and forced into battle with Ukraine. I'd like to think I could find a moment to get away and surrender, but the fear of being shot in the back might keep me from slipping away.
There's a lot of awful Russian soldiers who deserve everything that happens to them. There are others who are just trying to survive a terrible situation with no hope.
Yeah, not every man of draftable age was in a position to flee when the invasion started, and even if they were...what a shit list of choices. Join the poorly trained/outfitted army on a shoddily planned hostile invasion or leave everything (and often everyone) behind to go try and start anew in a brand new country you may have never been to before (or even one that hates you) with no idea if you'll ever be able to return home.
