Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

May a drone finds you well...

sadly it's unlikely, he's a chechen celebrity so he won't get anywhere close to the frontlines (unless middle strike campaign gets expanded)

It's Russia, if you're not really high profile they don't care

If only all AfD members and supporters would go there to be cannon fodder.

Anyway, happy hunting, Ukraine!

They should also step up recruiting of Tommy Robinson's bulletheads, and the few Farage supporters young enough to be used to clear a minefield.

That's all those people are good for.

Idk why people do this. Leaving aside Ukraine there’s also Russia to worry about.

Ex. American tankie Russell Bentley moved over to join the war in eastern Ukraine on Russia’s side, but Ukraine wasn’t what got him. As an “information warrior”, he was taking a video of the aftermath of a Ukrainian strike to make some propaganda about it. His own guys saw this suspicious character filming the site and declared him to be a spy helping with Ukrainian spotting despite his protests to the contrary that he was a ‘journalist’.

Dude was sexually abused, tortured to death by his own side (this particular group has been filmed hooking up field telephones to electrocute the genitals in its torture methods) and his body was blown up in a car with a TNT charge in an attempt to get rid of the evidence after realizing he was on their side after the fact.

First clue: deciding to call yourself "Krieger" like an edgy 14 year old.

FAFO! FAFO! FAFO!

Hopefully sooner than later.

I wish all AfD members would a) show their true allegiances like that and b) act on them by fucking off out of D.

Dusvedanya, dipshit.

Rest in pieces shithead

Previously, the Lower Saxony branch of AfD, where Krieger was a registered member, said it had launched proceedings to expel him from the party. The party, however, declined to publicly explain the reasons for its decision.

How much of an insufferable shut heel do you have to be for AfD to wanna kick you out?

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Grifting on the other grifters, maybe?

Front line infantry.
