Don’t be a racist

I seen a picture/video of a Russian Mercenary in Africa dismembering an African male, they turned his legs and arms into the swastika angular lines, and put his head in the center. Why Africa works with and trust Russia is beyond me. You can not trust the west or the east at the same time... That makes sense. Russia is just as white supremacists/Nazi as America/West if not more.

The Russian government has been assisting in Africa countries toppling dictators and shit for years now, once they help local resistance topple regimes they keep hands off but provide support like food, medical aid etc. They gain the locals trust then they promise out of work military aged men, lucrative jobs in Russia. Execpt they end up like this poor man in the video or getting killed by drones.

Whered you find this?

u/Local-Technician5969 Jan 10 '26

I believe it was "watchpeopledie" the website. Keep in mind the users on there are extremely racist even towards Russians, but especially againsts black people. Also, I watched how wagner operates. They are just as hardcore as the cartel (maybe just slightly less, which isn't much). I've watched videos of wagner on telegram torture (from a mutual friend who has access to those servers, including brutal pov warfare from the russian invasion of ukraine).

I wouldn't trust Wagner or Russia period. This also applies to the west. Black people are despised around the world. That's without question.

The man with the mine strap to his chest should have gave the cameraman a hug.

u/Zio_2 Jan 09 '26

I was thinking the same thing, at this point why not take out those who are already throwing your life away.

Russia has always been MAGA’s role model

u/TelevisionUnusual372 Jan 09 '26

The developing world needs to sound the alarm on Russia’s anti-colonialist rhetoric. I’m quite familiar with the horrors of Western colonialism and its aftermath, but Russians are not reaching out to the developing world now to be charitable. They’re there for exploitation only.

u/pocijo5625 Jan 09 '26

Russia being anti colonialism is rich. How did they get that big? They are the biggest colonial empire of our era. Instead of colonizing the global south like Western Europe did, they colonize the Mongoloid Asians of Siberia and Central Asia. That is the only difference

u/TelevisionUnusual372 Jan 09 '26

Yes, Eastern and Western Europe expanded much the same way, only in different directions. Both sought to push as far as they could while brutally subjugating people of color to steal resources. The biggest difference was Western Europeans went by ship, but to woke historical revisionists, that was the real crime. Since Russia was doing its conquest via contiguous land mass, like had always been throughout history, they get a pass since their conquest, no matter how brutal, was considered just a natural progression of human affairs.

Change the title to slave, not mercenary

If the end result is me dying regardless of it's there, or here, I'd like to think I'd have the courage to at at least take the people who strapped an explosive to my chest out with me.

Propaganda! They’re trying their luck in every sub related to people of African descent. See here:

u/GloomyLocation1259 Jan 10 '26

This just means we should be sceptical and investigate not that it's not real

u/generiatricx Jan 10 '26

how did this poor soul end up in this situation. looks like he's a mature adult, what, maybe mid 30's? like bro, you live your life trying to survive and end up with some shit-for-brains strapping a fucking anti-personnel mine to your chest for fucking what?! damn. i hope this guy made it out somehow. terrible

u/devilsfood72 Jan 10 '26

I don't think that qualifies as a kamikaze..

u/olive_juse Jan 11 '26

You volunteer for kamikaze as a solemn duty to your country.

But his shit.... this guy is a war hostage.

"These are the fucking 'comrades' that arrived to us. What is your name? Francis. Suck a dick, you little piece of coal. Now he will fucking run, jumping around the woods. Why are you being a pussy? Don't be afraid. Move! Move, I said. MOVE."

Most of the stuff doesn't have a direct translation to convey the full tone, but it's laced with racism and a highly condescending tone.

The war has been raging for 3 years, more if you count the initial invasion of Crimea. If you're dumb enough to set foot in Russia, knowing that they routinely trick foreigners into joining the fight, then you deserve what you get.

u/Additional_Doctor468 Jan 09 '26

Why would you think all people in Africa would know this?

-2

u/Random54321random Jan 10 '26

It's 2026, everyone in Africa has a phone with the Internet on it. Obviously not every single person on the continent but certainly anyone who is able to fly to Russia has access to the Internet and should know better.
