“Loose lips sink ships.”
Apples and Oranges.
The U.S. never passed laws to imprison mothers and wives from speaking on the dire conditions faced by their husbands and sons: little training, poor uniforms, useless weapons and absent commanders.
The Russian women warned ‘Neither the fighters themselves nor their relatives will be able to demand that their rights to proper equipment and provision with everything necessary be respected.’
Furthermore: ‘Any crimes such as theft, negligence, leaving the…soldiers to their fate…can go unpunished and hidden from the people due to the fact that now it is simply forbidden by law to [discuss] them.’
As with American soldiers, parents of soldiers can send their sons warm clothes and such.
Did we hear of American parents whining over the conditions their sons were experiencing? We didn’t. US parents understood it was a war and sent what they could, to shore up the lack of what theirs sons got from the US.
Sounds like Meta, Facebook, and Twitter of old.
Sure you're on the right thread?
