In Chebarkul, a small town in the middle of God-forgotten Russia, a twenty-year-old boy named Semyon was broken in just a few hours. He had barely arrived at the garrison — he hadn’t even had time to recover when they locked him in a room, shot him in the head with a shotgun, showed him the bodies of soldiers without limbs, and said, “This is what will happen to you if you don’t sign.” Semyon signed. Not because he wanted to, but because he had been broken. With threats, fear, and terror.
This is Russia. This is not an isolated incident – this is a system. It is as old as their imperialism. They need meat. Human meat. Otherwise, the death machine that Putin and the Kremlin have built to take over Ukraine will stop.
In the Samara region, after taking the oath, conscripts are immediately told: either sign a contract or go to Kursk, from where they will have “one foot” in the trenches. In the Khabarovsk region, an 18-year-old boy with a psychoneurological diagnosis — potentially unfit for service — still ended up in the training ground hell, because the commanders decided that a medical commission was unnecessary. In Kemerovo, almost the entire regiment was forced to sign contracts under threats from the FSB: criminal charges, prison, beatings — that’s the choice. In the Kursk region, even those who have already been under fire and returned are being driven back. All these stories are a true portrait of racism.
Russia is an abscess on the body of the modern world. A society that has never experienced catharsis for Stalin’s repressions, for its bloody imperial history, for the murders of its own and others. Their army is not an army, but a meat grinder. And people are expendable material. Everything is built on lies, fear, and coercion. The mechanism of slavery, which they call “the state.” They still believe that they can dictate to someone their will, that they can send anyone to their death – a citizen, an immigrant, even a child, just so that the Kremlin has something to cover its fronts with.
Serfdom, which was officially abolished in 1861, has not disappeared in reality. It has become a little more modern – instead of a whip, there is now a contract, instead of a lord’s word, there is an order from the commander with threats from the FSB. Putin’s Russia is a colonial empire that is rotting from within. Their greatness is false. Their army is coercion, deception, fear and hell.
As long as they drive their people to war, force them to sign contracts under the threat of death, as long as children go to the front instead of studying, they will not stop. Therefore, the world must stop them. Ukraine holds this front not only for itself, but for all free peoples. We stand against the empire that lives on the corpses of the people it enslaved and on propaganda. And each such story is yet another proof that the Russian regime is darkness, it is evil, it is anti-civilization.
Their time has passed. All this rot, which has for so long disguised itself as “greatness,” will soon collapse under the weight of its own filth.
