I saw some of those pics on Twitter, yeah. My first instinct is to doubt any country’s propaganda especially inflammatory stuff like that.
And to the liberals hate-lurking, all two of them left: if Russia is purposely starving POWs then I condemn that. I know it’s easy to reflexively say “well, they clap and call Russians bugs when they die,” but I’m not going to participate in wishing for painful torture and death for normal young people who were forced via conscription to fight and got captured. I’m not going to wish for torture or anything like that for officers either. If they capture high ranking officers and think they committed crimes and convict them in some sort of military court and execute them after that, but treat them decently until then, that’s different. Ultimately officers, especially the high ranking ones, knew what they joined years ago and should have known the consequences of losing a war. But no one should be starved as torture or to send a message or whatever.

Alright there’s my liberal outreach for the day.
