Russia apparently has lots of "spare people" to expend on the Ukrainian battlefields...

Messina appears to be a pure, one issue propaganda site. You can do better. I am surprised you are not posting excerpts of Mein Kampf.

Russia absolutely does not have ‘spare people’ It has a declining birth rate and can’t afford to lose working age men to a useless war.

Putin and co are mad and evil.

Our leaders/rulers think the same about the citizens of this nation. We are not only expendable, we are referred to as garbage.

Perhaps you view us that way too. For as far as I can see, you care more about Ukraine than you do this nation..

Why is that? Don't feed me your usual BS that you care about Ukraine, because nothing this nation has done under its current leadership, has provided Ukraine with anything more than money, which ends up being funneled back to the enemies from within this nation, who also do not care about thus nation either.

Meanwhile, in Europe, a “far-right” populist leader won a first round and is in the runoff election. In classic, European style, it is explained:

“Georgescu lacks an agenda, Andrei added, and has a vague and populist manifesto with positions that are “beyond the normal discourse.” His stances include supporting Romanian farmers, reducing dependency on imports, and ramping up energy and food production.”

Another angle is that when the speaker refers to Russians as spare people, he is not so much referring to Russian conscripts and contractees, but LND/DNR troops.

Consider: Donbas, from the Russian point of view, is now actually Russia itself and that troops from the LNR/DNR were not counted, nor were their bodies recovered during the first year of the war.

They were truly spare people.

one speaker refers to Russian volunteers dying in Ukraine as “spare people” and dismisses their value “from a social perspective.”

This is the same as Democrats like Obama referring to MAGA-type people as "bitter-clingers', Mrs. Bill Clinton referring to "deplorables", and Biden referring to "human garbage".
