From here (NSFW)

Anybody have any idea what it says/means?

    I can read some Cyrillic, fuck knows what it means. What I can see is:

    ЛИВЬ…(Possibly a я here, hard to tell)

    ЧЕВУРАТОР

    Which roughly transliterates to

    “Leave(ya?) Chyevooraitor”

    That’s probably not it exactly, I read Cyrillic better than I pronounce it. Russian has its roots in Greek, so there’s sometimes some similarities to English/romantic language where Greek roots have been bastardized in, and there’s also places where they’ve borrowed our words. I’m going to take a very, very wild guess and say that the top word is something to the effect of “liberator”.

      text in the bottom says “ЧЕБУРАТОР” or “Cheburator”, it’s a play on words, probably referring to Cheburashka, a character from an old popular soviet cartoon. The picture above the text is them in a military uniform (guy grew app and got fucking drafted i guess 💀)

      (fun fact: the music in the video is from the cartoon) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheburashka

      I have no idea what’s the one on the top is supposed to mean, since the beginning of the word is cut off.
      It ends with “ЛИВЫЙ”, but even after viewing the original video i can’t make out the first few characters.
      mayyybe it’s “(трус)ЛИВЬІЙ”? (which means cowardly), but ehh I’m not sure

        Image search shows this as a more likely possibility:

        polite (my ass) Cheburator

        The hypocrisy level is epic, of course, not only using a character that is supposed to be friendly as a militant, but also calling an active militant “polite” 🤦‍♂️

          Čeburaška was a character from a Soviet cartoon series, many of those soldiers grew up watching those.
