It's inapplicable. Putin gets more after King David than after Hitler. For Hitler, gassing prisoners was the point. For King David and Putin, dead recruits are the point. There's a reason Putin uses homophobia and Stalin-nostalgia to recruit men suffering from financial strain: policing. Putin isn't a statesman, he's a CopOnTheEdge with a political office instead of a badge. He's looking to recruit native Russian speakers with active shooter red flags and WAIT OUT

@samuraiplumber @godpod You're a genius! All we need is a gun that looks like a cheeseburger and this issue will solve itself.

Oh wait. Convicted felon can't own guns. DANGIT!

@PerryM @godpod Haven’t the Ukrainians suffered enough?

@jogel @godpod Apparently the source for this is Petro Poroshenko, the former Ukrainian president and oligarch who — after being defeated by Zelensky in the 2019 election — has had a history of run-ins with the law due to alleged corruption and treason.

As far as I can tell he has never provided any sort of proof of his claim.

Either way, Zelensky has been in grave danger since the invasion while in service to the Ukrainian people.
