Russian Men Who Fled Mobilization Mocked in Ad: 'The Boys Have Left'
Newsweek ^ | 12/9/22 | ISABEL VAN BRUGEN

Posted on 12/17/2022 7:15:57 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

A Russian propaganda video is circulating on social media, mocking the men who fled the country to neighboring nations in order to avoid being conscripted as part of President Vladimir Putin's partial mobilization decree.

The origin of the clip is unclear, but it has been shared by multiple Telegram channels. It attempts to portray the men who are staying in Russia as "men" and those who flee as "boys."

In the video, a wealthy Russian man says that he's escaping to neighboring Georgia, presumably to avoid conscription, and he's promptly mocked for doing so.

They be mocked, but they will be alive when Putin’s long gone, Make no mistake, they will be welcomed back with welcome arms - they are needed owing to a massively falling population - before the current stupidity started.

It might take 5 years or so. Even if Putin falls, he might be replaced by a hardliner so the war may drags on.....

Update on Russian military operations in and around Ukraine for December 17, 2022:

- Russian missiles and drones deliver massive damage to Ukrainian electrical infrastructure;
- The extensive damage reported by Russian strikes contradicts Kiev’s claims of intercepting “most” Russian missiles and drones;
- Pentagon plans training program for 500 Ukrainian forces per month falling far short of necessary numbers just to replace lost Ukrainian manpower;
- Ukrainian General Zaluzhny admits a growing logistical crisis and shortcomings regarding Western systems transferred to Ukrainian forces;
- Zaluzhny complains about HIMARS’ limited range; - Zaluzhny demands arms deliveries on a scale the US and NATO are incapable of;

At some point in the next weeks or months the West will be forced to concede that it cannot continue pouring billions into Ukraine without inflicting enormous damage on its own economies and people. At that point the memes of Russian weakness and defeat will crumble. NATO faces the real risk of being demilitarized. But it will not be the result of a frontal assault by Russia. Russia will continue doing what it is doing — i.e., pulverizing Western wonder weapons and bleeding the Ukrainian and foreign mercenaries with artillery and missiles.

If I was Russian and had a son who was conscription age then no question I’d be pushing to get them out of Russia and out of being forced to go murder lots of Ukrainians for the totalitarian Putin’s murderous adventure there.

Comedy song hit Mr.Custer by Larry Verne.

… What am I doin’ here?
… Please Mr. Custer, I don’t want to go

Hey, Mr. Custer, please don’t make me go

I had a dream last night about the comin’ fight
Somebody yelled “attack!”
And there I stood with a arrow in my back.

… Please Mr. Custer, I don’t want to go (forward ho!) aw
Look at them bushes out there
They’re moving and there’s a injun behind every one
Hey, Mr. Custer-you mind if I be excused the rest of the afternoon?

The Ukraine boys did the same thing...They were stopped at the borders.

We had Canada for the Nam runners.

Maybe he became a 'mobik' and was sent to the Ukrainian front?
