I mean, I feel sorry for people who get propagandised and convinced to die for a fruitless cause but maybe that’s just me.

I get what you mean, so i am rooting for the fascist regime to lose as fast as possible. Also being conscripted does not free from the responsibility for participation in war crimes, as established in Nuremburg "i was following orders" is not sufficient line of defense.

Idk to me this is a stereo typical bourgeois war. I don’t think there is a good side really.

Perhaps. Killing them is still justified. The forced conscription is done by the regime the west installed after the coup.

I don’t think the Ukraine under Russia would be any better than Ukraine under the USA, I think people just enjoy looting the country. I don’t see a difference between two competing bourgeoise parties scrambling to control a very corrupt country.
