"State sadism" as a key element of Russia's political / military culture. 💯
russian aggression toward its neighbors is rooted in russian culture (the set of values, customs, and beliefs), which itself is rooted in history, where Muscovy birthed an empire before becoming a nation This peculiar sequencing manifest itself in what can only be described as state sadism.

This information needs to get out from the active pro-Ukraine bubble. Please, talk about this to people offline. It looks like this story isn’t on the news abroad
Famine in occupied Oleshky, Kherson region. Around 6,000 people, including 200 children, remain trapped without food, water, or medicine since May 2026. Russia blocks evacuation and humanitarian aid. Ukrainian religious leaders appeal to Pope Leo XIV for urgent help #Ukrainianview #StandWithUkraine

These are sick, sick people. Imagine what would happen if Ukraine published a video like that? Yet, when Russia does it, the world only yawns.
One more sick indictment of Russia's regime, full of war criminals. A teenager, in shorts, clearly not military, was hunted down for fun, by a Russian drone pilot in Kherson. What's more the animals proudly publish the terror. It's not known what happened to the boy.

This war is not about fake Russian security concerns, but about a clear case of genocide. Russia is attempting to erase Ukrainian statehood and identity by force
Finally dispensing with all the artificial narratives about why they invaded Ukraine, Russians are beginning to admit that it's simply about genociding Ukraine and turning the survivors into Russian soldiers for the next phase of the war.

Terrific @washingtonpost.com story about how a 12 year old Ukrainian boy defeated a Russian attack drone. Good to see the Post still reporting from Ukraine. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

💥Polish CNC machine tools are reaching Russia via Turkish intermediaries, despite sanctions — and they are used to produce weapons for the war in Ukraine. Western technology keeps flowing to the aggressor, with violators rarely facing consequences.

“I was thrown three meters into the air”: the driver of a bus transporting children describes a cynical Russian attack in the Dnipropetrovsk region. Thankfully, the kids had gone to the restroom at a gas station just moments before the attack. 📹 Suspilne
‼️Yet another Russian strike on a gas station in Dnipropetrovsk region where a bus with almost 40 kids was. The kids managed to run out of the bus. A 10-year old boy was injured. Five more adults were injured, as well. One of them is a pregnant 21-year-old woman. Horrible.

Moscow is relentlessly pursuing its destruction of Ukraine. The unchanging goal is to make Ukrainians Russian, and to make Ukraine Russia. For Moscow, genocide is the means to destroy the Ukrainian sovereign state. We have a duty to stop genocide. directinitiative.org/analysis/rus...

People in the West keep talking about #Putin like he fell from the sky. He did not. Putin came out of a Russian society that normalized violence, empire, and obedience. That truth is still too hard for many, who would rather keep handing out Oscars and grants to Russians. @andrewchak.bsky.social

EXCLUSIVE: 7 months ago, Ukraine tried to sell the U.S. their battle-proven technology for downing Iranian-made drones. The Trump administration dismissed the Ukrainians, only to reverse course last week after more-than-expected Iranian drone strikes.
