I well-up every time President Zelenskyy appears on tv. A truly great leader.

No doubt in my mind that Conscripts are being thrown into a grinder to soften up Ukraine, but I'm also not one for believing that all Russian soldiers who surrender are treated humanely, same as any captured Ukrainian soldiers. I haven't seen too many instances where Ukraine has done any truly ****ed up things yet, but it's hard to see even if there was due to Russia's insane propaganda machine. It makes discerning anything very difficult, and frankly, I think it hurts them more than anything in the eyes of their people and the rest of the world.
