Damn. Imagine a country dangling debt relief, education benefits, and health care to lure teenagers into a brutal campaign of extermination against a geopolitical rival.
And imagine unironically supporting them while they invade an independent country so they can acquire their land. This is a comment about tankies.
It's no cost to promise them anything, since none of them come back to collect.
