123m “Away from the front lines” is a very popular tourist destination for British citizens. Unless there’s “muddy slush” in the way. Then it’s a no go
Will Russia disclose what all the Russians, Chechnyans, Siberians, russian prisoners, Russian minorities forcibly enlisted, North Koreans and Chinese are doing in Ukraine?
Iran is also up there… It’s crazy how much resources Russia was able to pull to aid their little special operation. Yet EU helping is too much for them…
Progressives want the rampant explosion in economic inequality to be reversed. We have allowed a handful of sociopaths to accumulate enough money to buy our country's government. The buyers of governments have demonstrated over and over that they have only one interest in life: themselves.
If you want to defend that aspect of "the West," go ahead.
Progressives also want traditionally-excluded people to have the right to participate equally in the civic, political and economic life of society.
If you have a problem with that, feel free to explain.
"The left" is a straw man.
Progressives want the rampant explosion in economic inequality to be reversed.
Ironically, this too is a straw man. The left is made up of more than just progressives that care about 'economic inequality', this would be akin to saying the right just cares about 'family values'.
There is a non insignificant number of tankies out there that genuinely do hate the west, and blame the west for the failure of global ML Communism.
Neighboring countries don't go around asking "what is that nations solder doing in your country?" all the time. The only question is what Russia is doing in Ukraine.
Why is it Russia's business what anyone is doing in Ukraine? We know the Russian military is there torturing, raping and killing civilians. The Russian military is terrorizing cities and towns and kidnapping many thousands of children. Yet Russia has the gall to ask what someone else is doing in Ukraine?
Russia's Foreign Ministry called on Thursday for Britain to disclose what a British soldier killed in Ukraine was doing there, and accused London of directly helping Kyiv to carry out attacks which it said were "acts of terrorism" on Russia.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova provided no evidence for her assertion in comments to reporters at a news briefing. Britain's Ministry of Defence did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Zakharova's remarks.
Russia, which sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine in 2022, has repeatedly alleged that NATO powers - who help Ukraine with arms and training - have also sent their military personnel to help Ukraine plan and target attacks deep inside Russia.
Britain's Ministry of Defence said on Tuesday that Lance Corporal George Hooley had died in Ukraine while observing Ukrainian forces test a new defensive capability away from the front line.
Britain's Ministry of Defence said on Tuesday that Lance Corporal George Hooley had died in Ukraine while observing Ukrainian forces test a new defensive capability away from the front line.
In other words, the Russians already know what he was doing there, Britain has already answered the question (Britain has always been upfront about the fact that British personnel are in Ukraine helping train the Ukrainians) - but Russia will make a major scene out of it, as they always do, because it helps to flood the zone. Probably they will also threaten to nuke Britain over it like they have already threatened 50 million times.
No "now what" really.
Same as day one of the invasion. Multple countries have had different roles on ground in Ukraine.
Russia doesn't have to know what they are doing there. The ony question is what Russia is doing in Ukraine.
Maybe Russia should disclose why all these russian boats keep hanging around internet cables and "forgetting" to pull their anchor up in the european and international waters.
Or how they very often disengaging their communication systems so they essentially go " off radar" without any explanation?
How very strange. American soldiers there is fine but if Britain helps, it’s terrorism? What about North Korean soldiers helping Russia? Is that also terrorism? Can some noble Russian deal with this tool bag please? Dude has been destabilizing the world for long enough.
Tell him that he was there to defend the sovereignty of Ukraine and kill imperialist Russian dogs, sent there to die in their thousands by you, Valdimir.
Of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers defending ukraine, some are destined to do something that is wrong og immoral. So if Russia has a crime to report, it should report it. And then we can look at it after the war is over.
I am, however, afraid that regardless of what he was doing it wont even any scores.
If he was just there on his own will fighting, maybe Russia should explain what their soldiers are doing in Ukraine to begin with.
Enjoying the cathedrals should be the token response given whenever russia ask this.

Mate, bruv,
just put yer wellies on and it's a go-go.
Fucking chilling
Why was he killed in Ukraine by Russia?????
Get fucked Putin
Taking in the sights?
That's almost literally what the Russian novichok agents claimed they were doing in UK and elsewhere.
Slava Ukraini
that IS EXACTLY what the russian novichok agents said lol.
thats the point the poster was making.
oh. I'm slow
Woosh
That wasn't a woosh? They knew the reference and just explained it for everyone else.
It doesn't come across as explaining it for everyone else it comes across as them not realising the joke, and thinking it was written by coincidence
Still appreciated though because now I know it was a reference to something
So you thought OP was just offering thoughtful tourist advice??
No? Just thought it was a joke. I didn’t know it was a reference to something
Double whoosh
Nah, that was one the biggest whooshes of 2025.

I was trying to remember what excuse Russia used for the "little green men" but this is the obviously correct answer.
Enjoying russian war cemeteries /s
Will Russia disclose what all the Russians, Chechnyans, Siberians, russian prisoners, Russian minorities forcibly enlisted, North Koreans and Chinese are doing in Ukraine?
Don't forget indians
And a hell of a lot of Cubans
I love me a good cigar too
Iran is also up there… It’s crazy how much resources Russia was able to pull to aid their little special operation. Yet EU helping is too much for them…
And that one Kenyan runner althete dude
They are hamburger meat.
From the pictures of North Korean troops I’ve seen, the meat is too lean to make a good hamburger.
Sunflower fertilizer
1% of marmalade.
Russian lathe
Indians too!
You forgot the african bros
Or what they’ve done with the tens of thousands of abducted Ukrainian children.
Dying mostly
Just doing a spot of neighbourly gardening, like ploughing the fields and fertilising them with blood and bone. Hope this helps
Exact thought i was having, just dare russia to disclose what horrific shit their soldiers have been doing.
The only question is wtf are Russian soldiers doing in Ukraine?!
Exactly. What are North Korean soldiers doing in Ukraine? Why is India giving drones to Russia? Why is all the world not making an example of Putin?
The rest of the world just wants to see the West burn. This is perfectly fine with them.
A lot of westerners want to see the west burn too.
Not even just targeted at Trump and his sicophants. But the left too.
"The left" is a straw man.

Bluesky is lousy with them if you have the misfortune of stumbling on the wrong corners of it.
you could say the same about right wing accelerationists. every group had crazies in it
Indeed.
… no.
I'm not quite sure they even know at this point...
Russians were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
Turns out, they got the first part of that wrong too.
oh they know they are there to commit a genocide
They were told it would take 3 days.
Putin wants land!

Dying
Disclose what he was doing ?? WTF?? He defending Ukraine , and fighting off the Russian invaders. 🇺🇦🇨🇦
How about North Korea?
Making sure Russia's population pyramid remains top-heavy.
Don’t forget about the North Korean ones also!
Bleeding
As a tourist, he was admiring the Saint Sophia Cathedral https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Sophia_Cathedral,_Kyiv
UK: "your mum"
Ahhh a typically British response!
I believe that would be "fuck off wankers"
Both work
Russia's mom has been getting it a lot recently.
Ha! Got 'em.
Just admiring some historical church spire.....
There on the invitation of Ukraine...now what are Russians doing there?
Hopefully he was shooting Russian soldiers.
[deleted]
Dying en masse.
Target practice for Ukraine
Killing russian invaders. What else could be there?
Special Tourism Operation. He was a pest inspector and there was an interesting outbreak of cockroaches in eastern Ukraine
The UK fella -
https://media1.tenor.com/m/GrvCw59630oAAAAC/debug-debugging.gif
He was there keeping an eye on the North Korean, African, Indian, and Iranian soldiers assisting Russia with its "limited military operation".
Why is it Russia's business what anyone is doing in Ukraine? We know the Russian military is there torturing, raping and killing civilians. The Russian military is terrorizing cities and towns and kidnapping many thousands of children. Yet Russia has the gall to ask what someone else is doing in Ukraine?
Every one should ask what the hell the Russian in Ukraine was doing
Or what north Korean is doinh in Ukraine
Like any decent human being he was helping to defend a country which was attacked by a foreign power.
the world would be better off if diplomats could just say " fuck off"
They have many ways to say "Fuck off" that are perfectly understood by both sides while still sounding diplomatic.
“I’d like to thank President Trump for his contribution to the peace process and helping to resolve the Russian invasion of Ukraine”
Wouldn't be very diplomatic of them.
First thing I pictured after reading the thread title was Starmer telling Russia to go fuck themselves. Because fuck Russia ffs.
Fuck all to do with you, that's what.
Defending democracy and the free world. Fuck you putin.
“A special military operation”…..a-holes
Killing as many russian invaders as he could, surely.
And could Russia disclose what Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine were doing? Or is the special military operation too special for that?
Inventory of Russian losses.
In other words, the Russians already know what he was doing there, Britain has already answered the question (Britain has always been upfront about the fact that British personnel are in Ukraine helping train the Ukrainians) - but Russia will make a major scene out of it, as they always do, because it helps to flood the zone. Probably they will also threaten to nuke Britain over it like they have already threatened 50 million times.
Ok we are directly helping. Now what?
No "now what" really. Same as day one of the invasion. Multple countries have had different roles on ground in Ukraine. Russia doesn't have to know what they are doing there. The ony question is what Russia is doing in Ukraine.
Who gives a fuck what Russia thinks?
Trump
Touche
Why? It’s the same answer as why there are N. Koreans in Russia.
Russia should disclose why there are thousands of North Korean slaves being killed in Ukraine.
Actually, scratch that. Russia should disclose why there are thousands of Russian slaves being killed in Ukraine.
Maybe Russia should disclose why all these russian boats keep hanging around internet cables and "forgetting" to pull their anchor up in the european and international waters.
Or how they very often disengaging their communication systems so they essentially go " off radar" without any explanation?
Angrygoose.jpeg
We're in the Nazi killing business. And cousin, business is BOOMING.
The answer should be: "we're not sure but we will send more to Investigate"
russia should disclose what tussian soldiers are doing in ukraine, georgia and what other sovereign state they are invading
Fighting Russia?
They were tourists visiting the Cathedral obviously.
He was doing whatever the hell he wanted under Ukrainian jurisdiction. What's Russia doing in Ukraine?
Brittish soldiers are welcome to Ukraine unlike Russians so wtf is the problem?
right after pootin discloses what 12,000 North Koreans are doing in Ukraine
Russia should disclose what their mole in the White House is doing.
Helping to defend Ukraine from illegal aggression. Seems pretty straightforward.
How very strange. American soldiers there is fine but if Britain helps, it’s terrorism? What about North Korean soldiers helping Russia? Is that also terrorism? Can some noble Russian deal with this tool bag please? Dude has been destabilizing the world for long enough.
He was in an Special Military Operation in Ukraine. None of your business, Russia.
Should someone ask Russia what North Koreans are doing in the war?
Nothing worse than any North Korean in the Ukraine.
Only when you tell us why 6 Russian spies entered the uk through 3 different ports on cargo ships?
Tourist.
Vacationing, obviously.
Three Day Special Vacation Operation.
Killing Russians and Capturing Russians, wtf do you think he’s doing dipshits
None of Russia’s damn business. One could ask the same of Russian troops. Oh yeah, committing war crimes then dying
They were counting North Koreans, Indians and Pakistanis on Russia's frontline.
Maybe Putin should disclose what his shadow fleet is doing in UK territorial waters
UK needs to tell Ruzzia to fu*k off and mind their own business while they still can.
“Your mom.”
Took a wrong turn obviously
Fuck you Russia. That's what.
"Looking at the newly grown sunflowers."
They already disclosed it, it was all over the news. Is Russia's intelligence services unable to use google?
Fighting the evil invaders of Ukraine I'm guessing
Russia can pull completely out of Ukraine, obviously including Crimea. I am tired of hearing ANYTHING from Russia about their illegal war.
Oh we’re accepting lessons in transparency from Russia now, huh?
Hopefully fucking up some Russian invaders!
What are hundreds of thousands of Russian military personal doing in Ukraine. Russia is a joke.
Nunya, suka blyat.
He was there to cripple your country Putin, you POS.
Why is russia in ukraine ? Stfu putin
Because Russia is playing by the rules
The Russians should disclose why they relish killing Ukrainian civilians….
Fuck RuZZia! Just bomb it!
Same as North Koreans in Ukraine
I hope he was fertilizing the sunflowers
Tourism stuff. What normal folk do while they're in another country.
"Planting sunflowers"
Russia just wants you guys to be fair and truthful, you guys!
Does Russia have to explain what its soldiers are doing there?
Special luncheon operation
”Preparing the British invasion of Russia”
That’d make them shit themselves
Aaannnddd Russia can suck a dick
Eat a bag of dicks Russia.
He was winning a war against an aggressor. Now others will continue in his stead.
We literally have. Example of Russia Being lying bastards number 36475348725522772
Maybe he was on holiday.
Ask Russia what their fleet is doing at the bottom of the Black Sea?
Same what North Koreans were doing in Ukraine- construction.
Participating in his hobby of fighting off invaders.
fuck russia I can't wait for this shitstain of a country to be bygone of daily news cycles.
Obviously to enjoy a succulent Chinese meal of course. Like any gentleman.
Being on vacation obviously.
Tell him that he was there to defend the sovereignty of Ukraine and kill imperialist Russian dogs, sent there to die in their thousands by you, Valdimir.
Russia should eat a bag of dicks
Well I think the UK should ask what the f*ck Russia is doing in the Ukraine!
Probably the same thing North Korean soldiers are doing.
Sorry, Russia. No.
they already have said what he was doing to greater detail than any Russian explanation of anything ever.
They should have said looking at cathedrals and gave them the finger
What are Russians doing in Ukraine? Aside from expiring, getting maimed, or perpetuating war crimes?
Putin has yet to answer that question. Until he stands and delivers, no one need provide an answer to anything the Kremlin asks.
What is Russia doing in Ukraine is the only question.
F Putin
If Russia has been sending its unwelcome troops to Ukraine since 2014, why can’t anyone else, especially when Ukraine welcomes them?
Just a special military operation.
It is just some weird kind of russian trap.
Of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers defending ukraine, some are destined to do something that is wrong og immoral. So if Russia has a crime to report, it should report it. And then we can look at it after the war is over.
I am, however, afraid that regardless of what he was doing it wont even any scores.
If he was just there on his own will fighting, maybe Russia should explain what their soldiers are doing in Ukraine to begin with.
Fuck Russia
This is a ridiculous headline. The man was killed in Ukraine, so why does anyone owe Russia an explanation?
If an Brit dies in Vietnam, does the UK owe Zimbabwe an explanation?
Soldier stuff.
”minding his own fuckin business“
Ruzzia says 🤮💩
