And now Russia technically kills civilians from other countries also. At this point you shouldn’t probably visit Russia even for tourism, so that you won’t end up forcefully on the battlefield.

I don’t think Russia has ever not killed civilians in other countries, for like its entire existence.

It’s the grand military strategy used since soviet era.
bomb everything to useless fine ruble
move in with a massive meat wave
if a building is still standing go take a massive shit in it
if you run in to something living, it’s a spy, so torture and execution.

I think this isn’t really news. Workers of many countries were lured into contracts where they thought they would get work and ended in the meat grinder.
Putin considers Ukraine to be part of Russia and thinks that anyone with a differing opinion is wrong. I hadn't really thought about that previously, but it does somewhat patch the hole you found in my logic.

They wanted a jump start on living under an authoritarian regime
Wow, Trump was too “woke” for those dipshits.
They’re in the good place now.

Vat is problem. Is job.
(Too dark?)
They wanted to work IN Russia. They were sent to Ukraine. That is problem
Without further context, that would have been an upgrade. With the context, it’s a meat grinder.

That point is education that Russis is still worse than whatever you’re trying to escape.
