Positively dystopian.
Positively american.
It's literally Russian you clown.
No. We have our own dystopia, our kids get shot in the classroom. We don’t have them assemble the guns to kill other people.
Big difference.
Russia will soon teach high school students how to build and fly drones, which have become a key weapon in the war between Moscow and Kyiv.
Russia last year launched a nationwide project called Unmanned Aerial Systems to promote both the domestic production of drones and preparation of drone pilots and other specialists starting with high school students.
Seems to remind me of Hitler Youth for some reason... 🤷♂️
🤡 🖕 💩
Thats what soviets did too. There were classes for gun assembly and shooting practice and its not a new thing.
I don't think military skill prep is a bad thing for small countries but coming from current ruzi administration is certainly is a bit on the nose. As in "training kids to terrorize country they invaded with semi-autonomous remote weapons" just doesn't ring the same as "military prep in case of invasion"
Are we forgetting that the US has JROTC in schools? Literally training kids for the military...
Yes and they literally have a drone competition. It's the exact same thing as russia.

Ummm no! Our drones have crosses on them because Jesus is king.
That's very interesting TIL
Teaching kids war is good in any case. Teaching kids that war is good is bad.
Yeah tbh I agree with you. These lessons should be left for adults no matter how you look at this issue.
Gave me brave brew world vibes since they are essentially raising them up to be the foot soldier class. It would be even easier to draft them
Child soldiers are not Brave New World. More like shit old world.
Gotta wake up to the reality that USA is doing the exact same thing.
Radio Free Europe is literally US propaganda. This is like thinking the National Enquirer is "News You Can Trust"
Links to Radio Free Europe articles get posted way too often on Lemmy. It's just RT for the US government.
I don’t think that’s a completely fair comparison. They are both state tools for establishing power through narratives. They are both heavily biased.
But RT is Orwellian in that it just makes shit up and has no respect for even appearing credible. While RFE/RFL tends to be biased towards publishing pro-western stories, but they don’t tend to make shit up from scratch.
Of course, who knows what the fuck is happening there right now, my analysis is pre-Trump 2024.
It really is not cause nothing is as blatant as ruzi media
It only looks that way from inside the imperial bubble.
Propaganda is propaganda.
All bad things are equally bad?
Yes, most people think that lies in service to violent control is bad.

When American kids enter the fight expect the coolest under fire mother fucking soldiers you ever seen
An entire generation of kids raised in a war zone of school shootings
They’re already trained
What a tasteless take.
It’s bitter, not tasteless.
lmao yeah)
