Dude joins the Russian military to earn his place in Russian society and hopes to be seen as one of the Russians, is surprised that he gets treated like a Russian.
Also dude complains about migrants in the US wanting free handouts, goes to Russia and then complains that he doesn’t get special treatment.
What a shocker. This is like the handful of Western teenage girls who went to Afghanistan to try and be good Muslims, then discovered that meant being married off to some Islamic State soldier twice their age. Like what the fuck did you think was going to happen?
Wow, I remember those… shit was wild
I was interested in this story and tried to search but couldn’t find any news articles about it. Do you have a source article about this happening?
Just the first one I could find, there were a few of these cases

I know of a number of cases in the Netherlands, I’m sure the US had its own stories. Sorry, I don’t have links available but DuckDuckGo it?
DeAnna, 42, suggested her husband had been misled during the military recruiting process.
Surely not. Russian military recruiters have the same dedication to truth and honesty as US military recruiters.
It probably would have helped if he’d learned to speak Russian.
dude if someone wrote this for a movie people would say it’s too on the nose.
moving to another country to avoid “indoctrination” is exactly what a movie character would do as a metaphor for inner struggle.
being sent to die for a fascistic country would be the metaphor for the idea that running away from your self by finding refuge in reactionary attitudes inevitably kills you inside.
and him having a bunch of gay sex with fellow russian conscripts on the front lines is a metaphor for, uh… well its a metaphor
Look how far someone will go to ignore that fact that he wants to kiss a man on the lips
Oh. Well that’s a… drag.
I’ll see myself out.
Imagine fleeing “Western brainwashing” only to end up in a trench with five dudes and a ration pack, wondering if this is what true freedom smells like.
Darwin thanks you for you service. Watch out for them drones!
May he have a very kamikazi drone find out
Ya. Fuck him and his family. Have fun dying bro. Slava Ukraine!

Oh, no! Anyways!
Stop shoving yourself down that leopard’s throat.
I guess he wanted to remain in a dictatorship, seems a sort of odd destination to me, pretty much guaranteed to be miserable even if he wasn’t dumped into a combat, he could have gone to Cuba or something.
Cuba is a dictatorship of the working class, LGBT rights are enshrined in the constitution, the exact opposite of what any fascist who would fight for Russia (or Ukraine) wants.
Fuck him
