Every wound suffered by Nazi Russia is self-inflicted.

As noted in the comments, you can be Islamophobic or you can arm Muslims, but you can't do both.

This isn't exactly funny but it is another sign of Russian hubris biting them in their asses, fairly deservedly.

This is the first time ever I'm actually happy about a mass shooting.

Definitely a sentence I never expected to read (not that I don't get it).

Lots of them seem to really believe their own propaganda that they can "dominate the world".

We will see how that works out.

Why would he even say this, even if no Muslims were present? Saying this with ARMED Muslims present is a death wish.

Were the victims mobiks?

If so, some people here are fairly heartless, and that's coming from me lol.

"BUT THEY HAD A CHOICE!!!" is not much of an argument, when choice Nr.2 is prison/penal colony.

Remember, today's mobiks would long have been on the frontlines as volunteers, if they wanted to fight for glory or whatever.

It's tragic, just like the deaths of so many relatively innocent German citizens in WWII was tragic, but as Clint Eastwood would say, "Deserve's got nothin to do with it."

Russia is f-cking things up for everybody, most of all obviously Ukraine, and they need to lose. Stuff like this, while tragic, is still a positive development in that sense.

Reminder that at least some of the victims could have been (or definitively were) conscripts. You cannot judge conscripts in the same light as volunteers.
These people did not deserve to die. And Franz Marc did not deserve to die in the trenches after he was accidently conscripted in 1916.

From that perspective you are most definitely right.

Nothing wrong with celebrating this as a positive event for Ukraine in the grand scheme of things, if it's not simply cheering about the fact that forcefully mobilized men are losing their lives.

Outside of an entire thread cheering death of Russians, usually on par with atlas’s double standards, somehow defending Islamophobic rhetoric outside of US politics also gets put forward as acceptable. Mods really trying their hardest at impartial, thankless moderation as always

There’s also washing away and justification for ethnic cleansing of Russians too. Real nice work

The only mentioned position of one of the dead is a boot camp manager who unjustly put forth harassing rhetoric in the workplace, and on par with what usually slides in the Russian army probably applied that to training and soldier-soldier relations. These men who fired the gun could have been conscripts, and outside the injustice of forced labor for an unjust war, they are being degraded as second class workers in the workplace. They have every right to resist oppression.
