    Hello again!

    For context, this dude wandered into a comments section about a group of female Ukrainian partisans who are doing low-level resistance in occupied parts of Ukraine, obviously at significant personal risk to themselves. You can find some of their propaganda posters, which are spectacular, in my history. Here’s a sample:

    This dude’s comment on the partisans was:

    I’m sorry girls, that’s all cool and I like the vibe, but I’m not going to fight for you (I would never fight for people I don’t even know personally tbh). Currently I’m not leaving my appartment and waiting for it to be over to be able to leave this country in peace. Those girls though, it’s not like they can’t leave the Crimea. And actually, it’s not like they can’t go to Ukraine-controlled territories and mobilize there and go to the frontlines if they really care for this country so much.

    I thought that was hilarious, in a disgusting sort of way, so I started talking with him. It turns out he lives in Kyiv, everyone in Ukraine hates the war and the government, he wishes he could be in Russia where he could get $22k for signing up with the military, which he keeps bringing up from time to time. We’re going around an apparently never ending cycle of various important things I need to understand about the truth of what’s happening in Ukraine.

    Of course it would be ever so beastly for me to suggest he isn’t actually posting truth that’s been denied to me, about Ukraine, from his apartment in Kyiv. And continuing the argument here would be off topic, so I won’t do either of those things. I’ll respond to his reply back somewhere in the ever growing labyrinth of conversation under the original post.

    Also, a twofer, since I fell behind at posting Ukraine stuff every time you left me a comment:

      You’re again making things up about what I said. Also, you keep failing to understand the motives even though I explained them. You can just read it again more carefully.
