Such is the situation of unemployment here, people are forced to fight for another country and get killed without earning anything??? Two fascists ruined India and Russia
Eh, your family will get compensated in the event of your death. It’s not really sustainable long term, but Russia has dedicated quite a bit of budget to this. There’s still fraud and whatnot, obviously.
I find the idea that the idea that people from another country tricked into conscription would get this benefit. If they got to this point by trickery, what’s to stop more trickery?
The tragic thing is that, for some, it might be. Especially if they’re promised that they will serve in a supportive capacity, far away from the frontline. Once you’re there, these agreements don’t really matter anyway.
Interesting conclusion. When I was half way through reading your comment I had just assumed the drop was caused by the poor being the ones sent to the trenches, dying as cannon fodder, and as such reducing the % of poor people across the whole population of Russia
To add a context here: since the start of the war, the poverty in Russia dropped from 22% to 9.6%. Of course there are both a factor of manipulation with statistics before the presidential elections and a lag between poverty metrics and inflation, but the number still blows my mind: more than 10 million people were elevated from the poverty.
I have zero trust in that people were actually elevated from poverty
What’s disturbing is that those soldier salaries are providing state money and purpose to Russian regions that never saw it before, so there lives are actually getting better thanks to the war. As opposed to the common belief here that Russians are suffering from war related restrictions, the majority is not, only privileged Moscow people may have their life impacted by international sanctions.

And Brazil. And the US. And Britain, but that’s since a long time. And, well, most of Africa and South/Central America. But that was mostly the US, too. China, of course, but that could be argued was Britain’s fault. Indonesia, Israel, most of the Middle East really, Turkmenistan, Hungary, Serbia, Belarus…
Can we agree that fascism maybe is not a good idea? Or are we gonna have to fight about it again?

Alright salary, but you are working 24/7 and you’ll have to get back home alive to actually enjoy it.

What a great job opportunity.

In Russia, your family will get a sack of potatoes in the event of your death, certainly not your unpaid salary.

Seems very far from being enough to make the majority push for a change of regime as we could wish for.
