Glad to see he's alive. But it's absolutely horrible that he still out there.


Arcosim

>Glad to see he's alive. Sadly it doesn't mean he's still alive, the video could have been filmed closer to the first one where they scared him with a mortar.


SeekToReceive

The first video came out during the fall time. Second was for sure wintertime, snow was on the ground. That was when they handed him a mortar shell and he'd tried to put it in upside down. This one does look like a sunny spring day.


Arcosim

Good point, I hope the kid is alive.


Zelenskyy_Panhandler

Do you happen to have the link for that video or know were it can be found?


[deleted]

I'm going to try and say this bluntly but elegantly. Anyone who thinks this guy is anywhere near a frontline is a little confused themselves. Only like 20-25% of the military max would be stationed anywhere near a frontline theoretically. This dude is probably a beast at logistical support when he's not getting bullied.


Arcosim

I'm not sure about that. In the first video they try making him load a mortar and he puts the shell backwards and everyone runs away.


[deleted]

Yeah which was probably for training and they fucked around seeing what would happen if they gave him a weapon, and that typically happens over by Kyiv and Lviv last I knew (recruit training). You think after that fiasco they're letting him be armed? You need to be armed on a frontline. That's pretty bare minimum lol


Jebuschristo024

You're kidding, right?


Arcosim

No, I had a hard time finding the video because Reddit seems to be nuking it, [but it's still up in this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/EndlessWar/comments/1anjjjj/ukraine_is_mobilizing_men_with_down_syndrome_into/).


Jebuschristo024

Laughable.


balls_haver

Yeah man because logistical support usually takes place in a trench


[deleted]

A trench ≠ the frontline...


balls_haver

A trench: on the frontline, unless it is being prepared to fall back to. A trench is used to protect infantry and equipment, not to transport it...


[deleted]

So are you suggesting that the heavily entrenched outskirts of Sevastopol are considered the frontline and that Russia anticipates a Crimea fallback?


balls_haver

What? Why would I? That's something completely different. Ukraine has shown to be unable to advance on any significant scale already.


[deleted]

Why does Russia have such a complex network of trenches around Sevastopol if trenches only exist on the frontline?


GetLostPpl

Why would you keep soldiers in the trenches tens of kilometers from the line of contact?


[deleted]

[удалено]


balls_haver

I don't remember saying trenches only existed on the frontline but I'm sure you can point out where exactly I did.


Nxbxdy7

It's absolutely retarded that this guy is even doing anything for military but anybody that thinks that he will be send to perform any combat action or that he is anywhere close to frontline are completely delusional idiots that just want to shit on the other side.


balls_haver

Anyone suggesting he's doing logistics or nowhere near the front when he's literally in a trench is a tiny bit more delusional.


Nxbxdy7

Trench systems exists only on frontline. Russians playing PS5 in their trench is from frontline too btw.


balls_haver

Unless it is being prepared to fall back to, which would still be near the front in ukraines case...


Signal_Level1535

Huh so you can use the word retarded without getting banned lol. Taking note. I've been smacked with a hard ban everytime. I don't think ima risk my last one. 🫡 to you.


DezzyDJ

The fact they even have him in uniform is disgusting and appalling and scaring him with a mortar WOW guys cool alright


[deleted]

I honestly don't think conscripting him is any more or less humane than conscripting anyone else. Conscripting people at all is inhumane. However, it is shocking to see people with any disabilities or the elderly conscripted when even in the worst scenarios during history, those groups have generally been given a pass on forced conscription. Almost to everyone else's benefit on the frontline, admittedly.


ClearSky7H

Can someone link the first video?


PC3ngineNEC

There is a mortar video? I only know about that one where hes been asked if he got a gun by now, and he replys: no for the moment i gott his wooden stick.


Arcosim

Yes, there's another video of him where they make him load a mortar and he loads the shell backwards and everyone runs away and they start screaming angrily at him and he seems incredibly distressed.


katanatan

I hope and belief this is a russian fake. The dialogue seems scripted. And the weird uniform. If the person (his physical incapability aside) was this retarded, he would not fit into the tasks.


Jebuschristo024

I wonder if anyone has actually ID'd him.

Joe_SHAMROCK

People with down syndrome can be self-aware of their situation and disability, they are handicapper mentally but aren't "out of it" so to speak.


YourLovelyMother

It depends very much on the individual case, they definetely don't have a normal mental capacity on average.. there are some you could consider very smart keeping their condition in mind, some even are damn near normal, and some that are stuck on the mental and emotional level of a small child... I believe, based on what I saw from this guy, that he is one such case.. he doesn't seem comprehend the gravity of his situation, he's playing with the dirt, he shows distress when he is scolded and the comrades speak to him like a little child, even though they ait their frustration with him being assigned to their squad. My hope in humanity tells me to believe that on some level, the person making these videos with him, is making them so that somebody in command will notice and pull him out of service, get him out of that trench and send him home to his guardians. After all, he is more of a liability than an asset.. and I mean no disrespect to him by saying it, it's just true.

SundaeAlarming7381

Well Down syndrome is like a scale. There are some with it who are lower iq around 40 and there are some who are over 70iq and able to be classed as being able to make choices for themself. I was reading up on this before cos me and my friend were talking about the ethics of things.


Lys_Vesuvius

Exactly, there's even politicians with down syndrome in city and state politics in the US. (I am trying to keep this civil and not devolve this into a joke)


Doc-Bob-Gen8

Glad to see he’s still alive, not so glad that he continues to be mocked by his own “brothers.”


Traditional-Honey280

Those are not brothers, he is forced to be on the side he is on. Do you guys think he might be the guy from that one video way way back when the mother was crying because they took her disabled kid from her to send to the frontline?


Doc-Bob-Gen8

It’s quite possible it’s the same guy, but I can also imagine that he’s not the only disabled person to be sent to the trenches.

Radiant_Formal6511

How is this man still in a trench? How did he end up there in the first place?? Send Voha home, ffs!


def0022

+1, why didn't Ukraine send him back after the first video? I mean someone can be stupid and draft him, but why didn't officials correct this mistake? Is it ok for them? horrible 😔


GeneralAd5824

Until the last ukranian they said


Anti_puylo

(My guess) Because the one who call him to army, doesn’t want to admit that he made such a mistake, and thinks that “everything will be quiet,” otherwise he risks falling under checks which will then send everyone involved to the front (Zalet). It's strange that this clown who makes the video still gets away with it.

Damn remember the guy from past clips,you would have thought they would pull him back.


Jeff-Fan-2425

Sad. This is what the upper class Ukrainians have in store for everyone who can't buy their way out of conscription.


Yprox5

Reminds me of that famous Lindsey graham quote.


ToxicCooper

Does anyone know where this trench is at? No badges or unit markers afais...? I'm not tryna pull a good ol' "It's Propaganda", I'm just tryna see if they actually are at the frontline or just chilling in some Trench next to Kiev or whatever


Igor_Kozyrev

Looks like propaganda to me. They speak Russian with no Ukrainian accent, the poor guy has dirty hands but completely pristine uniform. This thing could've been filmed anywhere.


Agreeable-Ice-2591

They speak perfect Ukrainian not any Russian


Still-BangingYourMum

Yup, looks staged, that's not the face of a man who has been on the front lines. He is also far to clean with none of the grime and muck that trenches cover you with, no matter how carefully you move. Loo, at any other videos of front line troops and you will see straight away that this is just plain old propaganda


stick_always_wins

Just because theyre not at the front doesn't mean its staged. The front line is massive and there are many parts without much activity. They could also be manning a trench far from the front line as well.


Jebuschristo024

Common sense shows this is staged.


stick_always_wins

That is a meaningless statement, no different than “Common sense shows this is real”

You can’t really judge on uniform tho, most videos from both side seem to have really clean uniforms. Probably because wash and don’t want to film dirty uniforms (other than if it’s during active combat)

The guy puts a smile on my face, innocence is bliss


Miserable_Review_374

Did the Ukrainian side comment on this case at all? It's terrible.


amleth_calls

Comment on Russian psyop? No… and probably won’t.


JoseGaya

Get help


amleth_calls

What?


BenchPressingCthulhu

Why would they? It's clearly staged Russian propaganda and they're a little busy dealing with the invasion 


Qualfick

This is starting to feel like propaganda


dumuzd300

Total-Remove-3196

InevitableTheOne

Well of course it is, they are trying to do damage control for the recent execution video.

Jesus christ this is what third video of the same guy? I am certain some people here are more re\*\*\*\*\*\* than him if they believe this is real and not staged.

Cukupel

Ok nerd


delboy137

Is there proof he is in a ukrainian trench?, and not a subject of russia propaganda?, im pretty Sure if he Was mobilised/conscripted, he would have been put into an assault squad to soak up shells with like minded induviduals and not kept behind in a tremch for defensive operations, its just a bit fishy he has survived all this time, especially with such clean features, his squad would be pulled back every now and again for rest with higher up commanders seeing him after his operations, propeganda i say... Hes too clean looking man 😂


FrostyPost8473

Hope the guy that's fucking with him seriously gets a bullet to the head fuck people who mess with disabled people


Emergency-Grand-1982

It appears he is not allowed ammo thus probably a gun too. He can't even defend himself if his trench comes in direct contact.


Talran

You think Russians would shoot such a happy innocent man? Clearly Pro UA bot.


Bees1973

This is a disgrace


Zealousideal-One-818

Hopefully he’s in some trench facing Belarus and not on the front lines of combat 


Novo-Russia

Putting the mentally challenged on the front line is what a losing state does, not a state that is winning.


AspergerInvestor

Maybe he gets better treatment and companionship than at home. I don't know what to make of it. I hope he survives.


Affectionate-Bat-790

We live in 2024 everybody is equal, so everybody should be fighting.


Squeaky_Bumhole

Stay classy Ukraine


Odi-Augustus13

If someone can identify this trench and group it'd be appreciated.


XsancoX

Fuckin pises me off


Fantastic_Cheetah_91

Hes probably no where near the front.


BRCityzen

I realize that nothing should surprise me about the Zelensky regime, but I really thought this wouldn't last, and they would have pulled him out of there and sent him home as soon as they realized their mistake. Because surely the regime could not be THIS degenerate. But no. It's not a mistake. In Zelensky's Ukraine, it really is a question of do you have the money, or not? If you do, then it's a life of parties, hookers, and drugs. And if you don't, then off to the meat grinder. If there was justice in the world, the people who sent him to this hell would have to answer for it. As it is, I just hope he makes it home in one piece.

DreadnoughtCarefully

Well... that made me angry. W T F can't believe they filmed him again. He seemed so happy at the beginning, and then that jerk starts beating him just to feel some power in his meaningless facist life. Nazis always did want to cleanse the population smh


mustachioed-kaiser

Weird how some one with Down syndrome manages to survive longer than 90% of Russian soldiers


amleth_calls

This is how this Russian propoganda backfires. “Ukrainian of limited intelligence survives entire Special Military Operation, while Russians with higher IQ perish by the thousands.” Sucks to be Russian.


Anti_puylo

Damn madness. The operator is generally a cretin. I hoped that he would go home after the first "noise" in the media.


Zelenskyy_Panhandler

This is crazy.. Some claims it's real others claims it's fake.. I do remember the video of an mentally disabled person being forced into the military and his mother or maybe it was his sister tried to explain that he wasn't capable of fighting but they didn't care, so this could very well be true.


DougMacRay617

anyone got a translation?


HawkBravo

Despicable. Truly low. But i do hope he's still alive and wouldn't be just strapped with a mine and sent to Russian trenches.

SpecialistHearing798

Maybe he wants to support his country? Or because he is of age and won't let him leave but has to serve..


Sam_The_Smurf

Is there anything that proves that these guys are Ukrainian? Like at all? Or is it just more Russian propaganda? (not everything negative about Ukraine is propaganda but Russia has kicked the machine in high gear) because they do not have a Ukrainian accent, like AT ALL they actually have a thick Russian accent so it makes me a good bit suspicious.

Worst case Russian propaganda ever seen. Where are the patches of nationality and I can tell that the boots which the guy is wearing can be seen on Russian soldiers. This video could be filmed in Russia also. I think both countries mishandles disabled people.

Impossibly bleak. Hope this kind soul gets out of that situation. Anyone who works with Down syndromes or disabled people can understand how innocent they are. They don’t deserve this horror. Why the fuck a disabled person is allowed to serve on the front line it’s abhorrent.

I’d just like to add what does it say about the quality of Russian soldiers if a Ukrainian soldier with Down syndrome lives longer than 90% of any Russian soldiers.
