I remember when Russia first did this visa program and EVERYONE said ‘oh, they’re going to enlist these people into their military as fast as they can’ because it was obvious they were going to do that. to everyone.

As everyone else here has said, this is a perfect example of FAFO. Everyone knows (except Maple MAGA types who live in their own false information bubble) that Russia is grabbing every adult male inside their borders that they can, to be sent to their deaths in Ukraine. To move to Russia shows a degree of wilful stupidity and/or ideological blindness that is beyond repair. It’s basically like a person deliberately crossing and re-crossing a very busy highway because they think they are invulnerable.

No sympathy whatsoever for the idiot, but some sympathy for the children whom I assume had no choice.
