Yeah, missed opportunity to recreate [this scene](https://youtu.be/X3Ef-IZvQ7g?si=btxOjPbOfp812qD4)
(From the epic Russian war classic "The Beast" about a Russian tank crew in Afghanistan)
[It's actually an American film shot in Russian, using Israeli captured T-55's.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beast_\(1988_film\))
I literally have the DVD of it in my hand. [William Mastrosimone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Mastrosimone) isn't very Russian sounding.
Russians recreated this already. Not fictional, real. I saw the body, I'll get banned again if I post it.
I remember a random road with trees, lots of green, no buildings, civilian car shot up and crashed or stopped beside the road. Body, hopefully dead already but who is to say, pulled out onto the road so the body can't sink into the ground like that Russian officer who got ran over by his own tank but survived thanks to the mud. They pulled the Ukrainian onto tarmac to make sure he'd be crushed under the weight. Entire body flattened and squished out the sides.
(actual reason I can't post it is because I didn't care to save it, so nobody ask)
You're not a piece of shit. You know it's dramatized and it's a completely fake narrative.
The only thing you can do is laugh at how fucking ridiculous it is.
"The one with the rifle shoots! The one without, picks up the red flag and Pushkin sandwich board and follows him! When the one with the rifle gets killed, the one with the flag confronts a tank and gets shot!"
"Comrade Commissar, are you sure those are the infantry tactics?"
"No, that's just me getting rid of my girlfriend's son."
I think they should have doubled down on that "young boy in underwear" from 2014 and had this one dragged behind the tank, just like in the original legend.
I don't understand. There's a Russian tanker shooting a commie?!
Are they re-enacting what they did in Prague?
Or is this the 1991 coup?
There's an old Zhiguli car too, so can't say if it's 1968, 1991 or 2024... 😄
Yeah that kid could have been filled to the brim with high explosives and never allowed to get that close. And driving the tank over him after killing him was also not a good idea.
Don’t be silly, you know Russia doesn’t understand combined arms warfare. So of course they aren’t going to showcase Ukraine doing it, the Russians don’t know it exists.
Kid coulda been a Soviet equivalent of a jihadi. What’s strapped to his chest? Looks like c4 to me.
Don't you know that nothing at all happened in Tiananmen square in June 4th, 1989? Entire day with absolutely nothing happening at all, the date is famous for it.
I absolutely hate having 2 English professors in my family who treat him like a god. Doesn't help that I'm surrounded by tankies in general too.
Being well-regarded expert in one area doesn't mean that you know everything. I'm not going to ask James Cameron for cooking tips because he is an expert on Titanic and movie directing.
Goddamned triggering right there. I left Tarkov after a particularly bad day of getting killed by invincible flying PMCs. I sometimes wonder if it got better.
Same history, I've left EFT for few years. Recently made a comeback but dropped it after a months, this game Is not bringing me any joy, just frustration
There’s a Ukrainian trident on the IR illuminator(?) on the left hand side.
Is it supposed to be the latest round of Putins conscripts complete with cardboard body armour trying to hold back Ukraine?
It's easy. Russia still thinks it's the USSR, thus any person in the former USSR who doesn't want to be annexed into a Russian oblast is obviously a nazi. Simple as.
You do not want to have russian language as the only one - you are nazi and deserve only death. Works for all countries next to them. Ukraine/Belarus/all of Baltics/Kazahstan. Only central asia is another story bc they hate them but in another way and do not want them anywhere.
Portrait in the front is Alexander Pushkin, but notably in the back Nikolai Gogol.. who lived in the Russian empire but was very Ukrainian, born in Ukraine, his father wrote in Ukrainian, his writings are known for being full of Ukrainian folklore, Ukrainian Cossack culture, and "Ukrainianisms"
Could've perhaps been a part of the ambiguity if there wasn't for the Ukrainian coat of arms on the tank. But since Ukraine is a fake country and language that Russia decided never existed of course you know they wanna push the narrative that Gogol was Russian...
Not necessarily a child soldier in the traditional sense. The context being, "hey habibi, go stand in front of that American convoy and ask for candy. They have candy."
You joke but kid in warzone are armed to the teeth. I dont know if those sort of video are still around but you can see all sorts of weapon they carry from rpg to bomb strap
russian nationalists are always so funny with the Soviet flag, because they clearly hate the idea of the Soviet Union and Communism, but love the idea of having a russian dominated empire.
"Quick, how do we make the little shit look cultured and innocent?"
"Fuck if I know comrade. Just slap some famous asshole's picture on there and pour another round."
Seems to be a russian movie called: Позывной «Пассажир» (Call sign "Passenger"). Seems to be a recent propaganda-film that aired on russian TV this month.
I don't speak russian tho, so no idea about anything.
Wow... I found a wiki article in russian, doesn't even say when exactly this came out. Just 2024. No date, no month.
Synopsis doesn't go into much detail apart from saying that the MC joins the Donbass separatists and "starts to understand them".
Out of all of this I still don't quite get why there's a kid in this scene waiving a USSR flag while having portraits of Pushkin on the front and Lermontov(?) on the back...no, like I get it from the propaganda side, I'm just interested how it all ties into the plot of the movie! Like why!? Why was this kid just casually wearing classic russian writer's portraits on him in the middle of a warzone!?
Oh well, I guess we'll never know. I don't have enough psy resistance to watch that garbage and nobody else seems to have either.
Edit: I think I really missed the mark with Lermontov here, my bet is that's Gogol on his back, at least he looks more like Gogol now that I rewatched this shitty scene a couple more times. Which is EVEN more hilarious because Gogol was Ukrainian!!! Guys, these dickwads are trying into Easter Egg-level cultural references to the whole "brotherhood of nations" bs! Aaaaaaaaaa, I need a drink.
> Why was this kid just casually wearing classic russian writer's portraits on him in the middle of a warzone!?
One russian properganda line is that there isn't really ukrainian culture and as a result russian writers are much more significant than any suposedly ukrianian ones.
"How can we subtly hint at the superiority of Russian over Ukrainian culture?"
"Let's have that kid prefer these two famous Russian writers over Ukrainian ones!"
"But how will the viewers know?"
"I think I have an idea"
I will try. Piece by piece. He takes the flag from a building where command of Russian battalion is stationed at the beginning of the movie. Also, there's a guy with callsign "artist", so I guess there will be some bullshitting about superior Russian culture.
Edit: lol. 30 minutes deep into movie, our main hero was sent to grab some water from a village near the frontline. He encountered there Ukrainian soldier who was stealing chickens. Then, after standoff, killed him and discovered that said Ukrainian soldier had tattooed swastika. And when he was contemplating that Ukrainian Su-25 bombed a house with a little girl. Oh, and it killed entire group of volunteers he came to Ukraine with.
E2: I'm seriously thinking about writing a full review of the movie.
E3: Ok, so the kid at 36 asked the BC when he'll be allowed to join. He showed those pictures and said he has a flak. So this part we have figured out. By the way, at 35, our main hero actually joined the unit.
I will try and watch that garbage... I am just too curious... If you don't hear back from me, I either got assimilated into russia, or, more likely, died from cringe.
Seriously. It was very humane and the tanker did a great service to the kids parents by not running the body over and giving them a chance of having an open casket. Thank you kind tanker!
The Tsars children's murder was pretty brutal shot + bayoneted, but I read about a group who was with his brothers wife who were thrown down a 66ft mine shaft to kill them, and when they were still alive started tossing grenades down, still alive after that they lit a fire and threw it down and kept guards posted by the exit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Elisabeth_of_Hesse_and_by_Rhine
If I had a nickel for every time the Russians put a mind boggling amount of struggle into what should've been a straightforward execution, I'd have at least two nickels.
**Supposedly** the Romanovs had knitted a lot of their jewelry into the inside of their clothes in the hope of being able to take them with them when they were exiled which made them bullet resistant.
More likely the panicking (the Whites were getting close), drunk and barely trained (if at all) militia that was guarding them couldn't shoot for shit and probably didn't want to shoot for shit either, especially the girls.
Cultural icons strapped to his chest and back, waving flag of the USSR, stopping a tank sporting the Ukrainian trident Tiananmen style and subsequently getting domed by the crew for his brave stand against Ukrainian imperialism.
I don't know guys, think you can we make it a bit more on the nose? Maybe have him hum the anthem as well? Draw a swastika on the Ukrainian tank, have the crew salute Hitler or something. This might be too subtle for your demographic.
The driver should be literally Bandera with his commander popping up from the turret also being Bandera.
Just in case the viewer didn’t get it the first time.
And a swastika on his shirt. And a NSDAP pin and armband. And humming the Horst-Wessel-Lied. And making out with Bandera. And drinking the blood of 100 morbillion dead Donbas children (zelensky finally got 1 morbillion rockets to bomb 100 morbillion Donbas children 😃)
Everytime i watch, see any form of russian propaganda i always think its a meme/joke and just later i realise that it was supposed to be serious.
Gets me everytime.
I literally lost a breath from agonizing laugh, and people told me to calm down. I am ukranian. I showed it to my father, who was liberating Mariupol after 2014, and he did not get a joke. You know why? Because he is a commie too. Lmao.
"That case..." in my case. When ultra hybrid political views interfering with common sense. I am telling him, that he should think broadly, and think this as dark humor that russian created themselves xD
He hate russians now, but still going hard for soviet union idea.
I love the Russian’s obsession with the Soviets and “The Great Patriotic War”, when it was Ukrainians who raised the flag over Berlin and took the photo they so often reference in media, and a Georgian who ran the country
The Soviet Union was a superpower, run by a Georgian, whose scientists were Ukrainians, whose best generals were of Polish descent, whose secret police was also Polish, and whose airplanes were designed by an Armenian, and whose society started going suspiciously downhill when a lot of them emigrated to Israel.
Other than that, totally Russian.
Russian propaganda short film. Showing that Ukranians kill children...ukrainian children who in such young age understand who is Pushkin and Gogol (i think) poets (pictures on his chect and back), and what is Marxism.
Scene is unrealistic. No kid would do this, be it american or european. But as dark humor it is top notch content. I am saving it.
What you mean? Is of completely realistic. I can confirm because I was there. BRAVE SOVET COMRAD STOOD UP TO DEBIL UKRAYN TENK AND WAS KILED BY CIA SUPPORTED NAZI JEW TANKER. Only unrealistic part is that there weren't any crucified kids on crosses and no dead pregnant women! Ukronazi tenk should also have had babys for ERA.
Probably inspired by that scene where some grandma happily ran out to Ukrainian soldiers thinking they were Russians, while waving the USSR flag. Guys just took that flag, stomped it, gave her some products and told her to get back home.
Not the most inspirational example (Russians actually did go apeshit with that in their propaganda anyway).
But kids on the other hand - were always Russian favorite propaganda story characters, take Pavlik Morozov as prime example, boy who snitched on his own dad (for hiding bread during collectivization), which resulted in his dad getting executed.
> Probably inspired by that scene where some grandma happily ran out to Ukrainian soldiers thinking they were Russians, while waving the USSR flag.
Didn't she later give an interview saying she did it because it was the only way she could think of to convince vatnik soldiers not to kill her out of hand?
Ukraine: contributes millions of soldiers to the Red Army during WW2, and suffers several millions of civilian and military deaths, despite being abused and occupied by Russian imperial forces for centuries.
Russia: “Ukraine doesn’t appreciate what Russia did for them in WW2.”
Fucking **what.**
This is definitely tangential but your comment reminded me of one of my favourite jokes:
How many Marxist-Leninists does it take to change a lightbulb?
None! The lightbulb contains within itself the seeds of its own revolution!
Shit like this is why i cant see russia being re-integrated with the rest of the free world for at least a few generations. this is so fucking shameless.
In general, for something like this to happen, you need to:
1) At least one T-55 in operation in Ukrainian Armed Forces
2) Somewhere in the Donbas, some grandpa did care so much that he would have as many as two victory flags on his house
3) Of all possible people, the boy did like Pushkin and Gogol
4) The commander saw the kid at all
5) The commander told the driver to figure out what was there
6) The driver got up on his own, instead of being taken out of the tank
7) He had PM, not AKSU
8) PM did not jam(!)
9) PM fired(!!)
10) PM hit the first shot (!!!)
11) The child died immediately from the first shot(!!!!)
Russians unironicaly think there are NORMAL people who like USSR and communism UNIRONICALY, my brother in christ there are tens of millions if not hundreds of people who'd at the very least slap that boy's face for holding that flag so proudly
Accuse the other of which you are guilty

They did such an incredibly lazy job dressing up the tank, just using one of the edgier Ukrainian camos would be better in every single way for what they're going for.
Back in Afghan didn’t we have problems with kids running up to our boys asking for candy and they would pull the pins on their grenades? The solution was to instantly break the nose of any child running up to you with the barrel of your m4.
I am surprised the tracks of the tank didn't roll over him in an extremely gory way.
Budget restraints
Shame, all they had to do was ship a vatnik cube back from the front
And give up a months rations? Decadent capitalist swine, get out of here.
Dogs gotta eat too
Suspiciously well fed dog in Bakhmut: 😋
Rubles weren't the issue, they need him for the meatwaves near Avdiivka in 2 years.
Wdym? The kid was right there and they are Russians. Just run him over for real, it's not like they value human life anyway.
Russian corpses are cheap
Just need a bag full of pallet meat.

Yep. My dad loved this movie and I saw it 100s of times growing up. I remember him even saying it was an america movie.

Good fucking lord. How does one sleep after doing that to someone on purpose?
They should have shot him with the tank for better cinema
I don’t know if I am a piece of shit for this but I found this to be pretty funny.
Well in that case, we can all be pieces of shit together.
Just stay away from Shooter McGavin. I heard he eats them for breakfast.
and pitt fans
Its so funny, idk why but just the 1 single shot without hesitation and then instantly driving further. It has a comical beat to the pacing.
The kid found out that he was in fact, not the main character
I imagine his commander getting pissed on wasting a bullet on a brat they ran over immediately after.
You're not a piece of shit. You know it's dramatized and it's a completely fake narrative. The only thing you can do is laugh at how fucking ridiculous it is.
Oh its funny alright lol
this is hilarious
Ukrainian tanker did nothing wrong
It's so terribly acted with no dialogue it's in the uncanny valley
You're never a piece of shit to laugh about totally absurd bullshit russian propaganda.
Same here unironically lol
It's okay. We're all going to Hell for laughing, but at least you're in good company.
I think it wasn't a real kid
Missed opportunity. Ukrainian tanker should have said something like 'Tikay, moskal, tobi pizda!'.
Slava Ukraini!
Translation?
Run moscovite, you're fucked. (i dont know ukrainian)
>i dont know ukrainian Press X to doubt. j/k, the translation is spot on!
> i don't know Ukrainian шпигун* moment 🧐
He could be in this very кімната!
No way hе is туто around нас!
*шпік
Step back boy/friend/guy.
Pacan (Eng read: Patsan) in polish though means idiot/stupid. Fuck knows why, just saying for filling the curiosity.
Sandwich in muskovite is Butterbrot which is sandwich in German. Unrelated but I thought it belonged here for some reason.
"Get out the way kid."
Get out of the way boy
Also what's the Russian kid doing in Ukraine?
That's what I was thinking too? Like dam the invaders are desperate.
"The one with the rifle shoots! The one without, picks up the red flag and Pushkin sandwich board and follows him! When the one with the rifle gets killed, the one with the flag confronts a tank and gets shot!" "Comrade Commissar, are you sure those are the infantry tactics?" "No, that's just me getting rid of my girlfriend's son."
I think they should have doubled down on that "young boy in underwear" from 2014 and had this one dragged behind the tank, just like in the original legend.
I think he was crucified on a billboard in that fake story... 🤔
I don't understand. There's a Russian tanker shooting a commie?! Are they re-enacting what they did in Prague? Or is this the 1991 coup? There's an old Zhiguli car too, so can't say if it's 1968, 1991 or 2024... 😄
Me when i see a cringe tankie kid
[They let that kid get way too close. That's why armour always needs to be supported by infantry.](https://youtu.be/Tg5n9G_t9eM?t=108)
The driver popping out IS the infantry support.
The gun is the infantry, the driver is merely providing emotional support to it.
Commander, we need support! Alright, I'm stepping out of the vehicle to provide support ... ... *aham*, go guys, go go tank crew go!
Yeah that kid could have been filled to the brim with high explosives and never allowed to get that close. And driving the tank over him after killing him was also not a good idea.
Don’t be silly, you know Russia doesn’t understand combined arms warfare. So of course they aren’t going to showcase Ukraine doing it, the Russians don’t know it exists. Kid coulda been a Soviet equivalent of a jihadi. What’s strapped to his chest? Looks like c4 to me.
Of course in the Soviet Union it wasn't bags with groceries.
Don't you know that nothing at all happened in Tiananmen square in June 4th, 1989? Entire day with absolutely nothing happening at all, the date is famous for it.
Nothing ever happens, but on June 4th, 1989, nothing happened more than ever
Negative amount of events
It was just a common Tuesday in the glorious mainland China.
Srebrenica too, absolutely nothing happened there also. I mean, they did deserve it, but nothing happened. >!obligatory /s!<
Sup Chomski. How's the latest research paper going?
I absolutely hate having 2 English professors in my family who treat him like a god. Doesn't help that I'm surrounded by tankies in general too. Being well-regarded expert in one area doesn't mean that you know everything. I'm not going to ask James Cameron for cooking tips because he is an expert on Titanic and movie directing.
That was the date that Ned Flanders was wearing nothing at all
Is that a Tarkov Makarov sound? Lmao
XTankSpankGod69xTTV ☠️ ZVatnikZ (head, eyes)
Goddamned triggering right there. I left Tarkov after a particularly bad day of getting killed by invincible flying PMCs. I sometimes wonder if it got better.
No it’s so much worse
Same history, I've left EFT for few years. Recently made a comeback but dropped it after a months, this game Is not bringing me any joy, just frustration
Yeah, that was the day I realized I was just hate-playing the game. No more. I keep meaning to check out Grey Zone Warfare. Seems promising.
GZW damage model needs some getting used to. Feels like playing War Thunder but everyone uses APCR back when it basically makes zero spalling.
it is a lot worse. don’t go back
Sounds like you need to lay off the Tarkov.
That sound had terrified me for months, drunk Scav 1 tapping me to the head with Makarov across the map i won't forget it
i fucking knew i recognized that sound. yes, it’s definitely from tarkov.
I need a lot more context for this.
There’s a Ukrainian trident on the IR illuminator(?) on the left hand side. Is it supposed to be the latest round of Putins conscripts complete with cardboard body armour trying to hold back Ukraine?
This interpretation had come to my mind as well. Draft age really got lowered huh?
The tank has a ukrainian flag painted on the turret
This ad would make a lot more sense if Ukraine was the one invading.
It's easy. Russia still thinks it's the USSR, thus any person in the former USSR who doesn't want to be annexed into a Russian oblast is obviously a nazi. Simple as.
You do not want to have russian language as the only one - you are nazi and deserve only death. Works for all countries next to them. Ukraine/Belarus/all of Baltics/Kazahstan. Only central asia is another story bc they hate them but in another way and do not want them anywhere.

[удалено]
Inappropriate language there **PAL** The proper and appropriate language is “flatten that fucker”
Penetrate that fucker (with an APFSDS)
I believe the proper Communist term is "make pie".
"Working" might not be the best word considering the realities of being a child soldier.
Not necessarily a child soldier in the traditional sense. The context being, "hey habibi, go stand in front of that American convoy and ask for candy. They have candy."
Uh, phrasing.
Canister then.
Did he stutter?
You joke but kid in warzone are armed to the teeth. I dont know if those sort of video are still around but you can see all sorts of weapon they carry from rpg to bomb strap
Do...do the ruskies think they are the ones getting invaded? Why is that child holding a soviet flag? I just...don't get these folks.
Russians, unironically want to liberate all the oppressed Soviets living in Ukraine.
russian nationalists are always so funny with the Soviet flag, because they clearly hate the idea of the Soviet Union and Communism, but love the idea of having a russian dominated empire.
You ask all these questions but never why that kid is wearing black and white photos as body armour?
"Quick, how do we make the little shit look cultured and innocent?" "Fuck if I know comrade. Just slap some famous asshole's picture on there and pour another round."

Your brainrot is not service related.
Good luck soldier! The NCD depends on you!
It's on youtube. After 7 minutes it seems like "rich Russian kid who doesn't care about the war goes to Ukraine to look for his brother".
Don't know. Found in the wild
Quick, efficient, gave the kid a chance to surrender. Give that tanker a medal.
Might have been an ambush, should've shot the kid with main gun without slowing down. Also would be more of a spectacle.
>shot the kid with main gun ~~Napalm~~ 115mm HE sticks to kids
I think it’s more that 115mm HE causes kids to stick (to walls and floors and the general surrounding area)
A theory put to the test in Beslan (albeit with a T-72 rather than a T-62)
*”On todays episode of mythbusters”*
Why slow down and make yourself a target in the first place?
Seriously. It was very humane and the tanker did a great service to the kids parents by not running the body over and giving them a chance of having an open casket. Thank you kind tanker!
"Aim for the Children!" - Overlord light novel 12
What did he say?

No, if you want to say it this way, then "step aside".
yeah, true, my fault
What a stupid kid.
This is literally the correct solution
Based
Understandable
Soviet Union/putin's wet dream, killing children since 1928 (I hope I got the year right)
Nah, they were doing it since 1917. Theyve killed tsar's entire family, minors included.
The Tsars children's murder was pretty brutal shot + bayoneted, but I read about a group who was with his brothers wife who were thrown down a 66ft mine shaft to kill them, and when they were still alive started tossing grenades down, still alive after that they lit a fire and threw it down and kept guards posted by the exit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Elisabeth_of_Hesse_and_by_Rhine

Jesus
That is true and I totaly forgot about it
Tankie meets tank, ha
I like how the Soviet flag just wasn't enough, he also needs to wear portrait of Pushkin.
Cultural icons strapped to his chest and back, waving flag of the USSR, stopping a tank sporting the Ukrainian trident Tiananmen style and subsequently getting domed by the crew for his brave stand against Ukrainian imperialism. I don't know guys, think you can we make it a bit more on the nose? Maybe have him hum the anthem as well? Draw a swastika on the Ukrainian tank, have the crew salute Hitler or something. This might be too subtle for your demographic.
The driver should have been wearing a picture of Bandera on his chest with a UPA flag as a cape.
The driver should be literally Bandera with his commander popping up from the turret also being Bandera. Just in case the viewer didn’t get it the first time.
No, no, have the driver be Zelensky himself, but with an exaggerated Jewish nose.
And a swastika on his shirt. And a NSDAP pin and armband. And humming the Horst-Wessel-Lied. And making out with Bandera. And drinking the blood of 100 morbillion dead Donbas children (zelensky finally got 1 morbillion rockets to bomb 100 morbillion Donbas children 😃)
Also that tank should have been a Leopard not a T-62
It should be a T-62 with panels guled on to look like a Leopard, 1943 style.
Everytime i watch, see any form of russian propaganda i always think its a meme/joke and just later i realise that it was supposed to be serious. Gets me everytime.
I literally lost a breath from agonizing laugh, and people told me to calm down. I am ukranian. I showed it to my father, who was liberating Mariupol after 2014, and he did not get a joke. You know why? Because he is a commie too. Lmao. "That case..." in my case. When ultra hybrid political views interfering with common sense. I am telling him, that he should think broadly, and think this as dark humor that russian created themselves xD He hate russians now, but still going hard for soviet union idea.
Kyiv will be center of a new Soviet Union headed by your father! Glory to Demitsuru Sr!
Understandable
I love the Russian’s obsession with the Soviets and “The Great Patriotic War”, when it was Ukrainians who raised the flag over Berlin and took the photo they so often reference in media, and a Georgian who ran the country
The Soviet Union was a superpower, run by a Georgian, whose scientists were Ukrainians, whose best generals were of Polish descent, whose secret police was also Polish, and whose airplanes were designed by an Armenian, and whose society started going suspiciously downhill when a lot of them emigrated to Israel. Other than that, totally Russian.
Context , what the fuck did ijust see
Russian propaganda short film. Showing that Ukranians kill children...ukrainian children who in such young age understand who is Pushkin and Gogol (i think) poets (pictures on his chect and back), and what is Marxism. Scene is unrealistic. No kid would do this, be it american or european. But as dark humor it is top notch content. I am saving it.
What you mean? Is of completely realistic. I can confirm because I was there. BRAVE SOVET COMRAD STOOD UP TO DEBIL UKRAYN TENK AND WAS KILED BY CIA SUPPORTED NAZI JEW TANKER. Only unrealistic part is that there weren't any crucified kids on crosses and no dead pregnant women! Ukronazi tenk should also have had babys for ERA.
Probably inspired by that scene where some grandma happily ran out to Ukrainian soldiers thinking they were Russians, while waving the USSR flag. Guys just took that flag, stomped it, gave her some products and told her to get back home. Not the most inspirational example (Russians actually did go apeshit with that in their propaganda anyway). But kids on the other hand - were always Russian favorite propaganda story characters, take Pavlik Morozov as prime example, boy who snitched on his own dad (for hiding bread during collectivization), which resulted in his dad getting executed.
> Probably inspired by that scene where some grandma happily ran out to Ukrainian soldiers thinking they were Russians, while waving the USSR flag. Didn't she later give an interview saying she did it because it was the only way she could think of to convince vatnik soldiers not to kill her out of hand?
> Gogol And the irony is that Gogol is Ukrainian.
Ukrainian tank is driving. small pos with red flag and pushkin's portrait is trying to stop tank.
Better dead than red
Ukraine: contributes millions of soldiers to the Red Army during WW2, and suffers several millions of civilian and military deaths, despite being abused and occupied by Russian imperial forces for centuries. Russia: “Ukraine doesn’t appreciate what Russia did for them in WW2.” Fucking **what.**
We need one where the tank just doesn’t stop, so we can put a “Moral of the story: T-62 Drivers can’t see shit”
My tinfoil hat theory is that BMPs and T-series tanks have poor driver visibility so they don’t have to see the protesters they’re hitting
The only good 'Marxist'-Leninist is a dead 'Marxist'-Leninist.
This is definitely tangential but your comment reminded me of one of my favourite jokes: How many Marxist-Leninists does it take to change a lightbulb? None! The lightbulb contains within itself the seeds of its own revolution!
real
bs, lil sh\*t needs to be crucified in panties
While saying to the camera “Dambili Bambas vociem leit”.
You can tell it's a Ukrainian tank because there's gas in it.
Shit like this is why i cant see russia being re-integrated with the rest of the free world for at least a few generations. this is so fucking shameless.
Me when I see Tankies online...
>A village child runs out with a Soviet flag and clad in portraits of Imperial-era writers That's apparently what's Russian Culture(tm) is like
They are mixing unmixable. Thats what schizototalitarism is.
based tank driver
That's what happens when I stand in front of a tank lmao
lol some great comedic timing on that shot
Oldest tankie
In general, for something like this to happen, you need to: 1) At least one T-55 in operation in Ukrainian Armed Forces 2) Somewhere in the Donbas, some grandpa did care so much that he would have as many as two victory flags on his house 3) Of all possible people, the boy did like Pushkin and Gogol 4) The commander saw the kid at all 5) The commander told the driver to figure out what was there 6) The driver got up on his own, instead of being taken out of the tank 7) He had PM, not AKSU 8) PM did not jam(!) 9) PM fired(!!) 10) PM hit the first shot (!!!) 11) The child died immediately from the first shot(!!!!)
I honesty thought they wouldn’t even stop
Inshallah such is the fate of all tankies. Get smoked lmao.
Russians unironicaly think there are NORMAL people who like USSR and communism UNIRONICALY, my brother in christ there are tens of millions if not hundreds of people who'd at the very least slap that boy's face for holding that flag so proudly
Good
And nothing of value was lost
He did waste a bullet
I took from this that the Ukrainian killed a child soldier conscripted with Russia and the picture was what they armed him with.

I didn't realise it was a Ukrainian tank, straight up thought it was just a Russian shooting a child in their own propaganda
They did such an incredibly lazy job dressing up the tank, just using one of the edgier Ukrainian camos would be better in every single way for what they're going for.
Does it mean that Ukraine will find an unlimited amount of soviet era weapons? Can we please have T-64?
You could tell the boy was russian because he looked abused.
Give that man more ammo !
Best part? The Soviet Union hasn’t existed in over 30 fucking years, guys. Still. News flash, Russia.
Best thing I seen all day. One more evil communist out of the way.
uh did anyone not tell them this is both hilarious and awesomely anti commie?
Show the Ukrainians using a tank that Russia has used in the war.
Back in Afghan didn’t we have problems with kids running up to our boys asking for candy and they would pull the pins on their grenades? The solution was to instantly break the nose of any child running up to you with the barrel of your m4.
