Unfortunately, nothing will be as stupid as the reality

Not likely, Perun is a God, head of Eastern Slavic pantheon, Zeus-like god of thunder (and war)

What would be the point of staging it? I'm not denying that there is a possibility, just don't see a reason for him to do it

Plot twist — their dad is the dentist

"The little guys" also changed history, started revolutions and overthrown governments. Even if we overlook that and assume those were all "heroes", there is a difference between a civilian person that did nothing to stop a war and a soldier that took up arms and followed criminal and morally wrong orders. "Having a weakness" can only go so far as an excuse.

The point is not that he and people like him should be dehumanized or something, but it's that it's really disgusting that he tries to shift responsibility and appear innocent. Idk, maybe it's cause English is my second language, but I feel that "maggot" is a rather tame insult for this situation.

If you really think most people in Nazi Germany were normal folks who didn't know what was going on, you need to learn your history. A lot of them (if not the majority) supported Hitler, his stances and policies. And while not all of them were ready to take up arms for that, they still were responsible for enabling the atrocities commited. They did end up paying for that - directly with reparations and with a commitment to denazification, but they also probably were despised for years.

And, unlike Germans, Russians have direct access to alternative points of view, but they still either passively support the regime or, like this guy, actively take up arms. And "focusing criticism" will allow them all to get away with it, cause all of them from the bottom to the top chain of command will be able to say "I cared for my family" or "I only followed orders", till only Putin is responsible for what's going on. That's just not right

Unlike "many other people" he went to war, invaded a foreign country and killed (or at the very least helped kill) foreign citizens. He didn't stop when he "felt like a murderer", doesn't feel responsible for what he's done, instead of opposing in any way he fled from his country and whines about how homesick he is — and you choose to judge the people who voice their disdain for their choice of words

OMG, those poor normal human invaders, they have problems as well, they are just following orders. Would you excuse Nazi Germans as well?

They shouldn't get kicked off the UN proper, but I am (and the article) talking about excluding them from the security council. Plus they shouldn't have the veto power

It was time a year and a half ago already. UN is an impotent organisation, and they won't ever do it

Semantics, I guess, but it says "disease" in the meme, does that really constitute a disease?

Not how it works though. It might alleviate pain and improve your perception of your well-being, but it won't heal you
