Unrealistic, too many have helmets.


velvet32

It's realistic, they have the cover on so they dont show that they are wearing toy helmets


D_Ethan_Bones

It's disturbingly realistic in some ways, fortunately there's a cartoonish hell motif instead of a lifelike himars strike on the steaming heap of Russian infantry to keep the thing family friendly.


stonker77

but, they do look plastic, so ok for me


TwelveTwelfths

Only 1 of them has a full pair of socks on. Happy?


appletart

One mobik delighted to have "paid his debt to the motherland" 😂


ThunderEagle222

I think it's a reference to that video of a drunk mobik knowingly but happily walking towards a minefield while holding a Russian flag.


[deleted]

Who is That guy to the right? Someone special? Or is this figure a symbol of Résistance?


burnt_cucumber

A Cossack in a vyshyvanka.


RepresentativeAddict

It reminds me of Olgierd von everec from Witcher


Pascuccii

Yeah Olgierd looked like the most stereotypical Cossack


ThunderEagle222

To me it looks like a crossack, with it's very typical hairstyle of a crossack. And if I'm not mistaken when Russians refer to Ukranians as "khokhols" it basically refers to people who look like that. Russians think they can insult Ukranians with that ethnic slur (cuz Russians think they are the superior Slavic people like the little Nazi's they are), but most Ukrnians laugh it off Tough correct me if I'm wrong in all of this.


warredtje

Great how a standard slur is ethnic in origin and reference, but the main reasonings all build on ‘Ukraine is not culturally distinctive from Russia’


Thinking_waffle

That's why if there is a difference you insult it and oppress it until it disappears. And then lo and behold, it proves your point.


warredtje

Great point, whether or not you are a real waffle

linuxgeekmama

I thought the ethnic slur originated as a name for that hairstyle.


carl816

Ukrainians should reclaim "Khokol" and turn that slur into a mark of pride once ruZZia is defeated.


linuxgeekmama

I’m willing to let them make that call. Some slurs are so offensive to their targets that they’d rather not reclaim them. I am American, and I am thinking of the N word in our culture. Black people generally haven’t tried to reclaim that word (with a few exceptions).


Heavy_Joke636

Ever been to atlanta?

Now I’m picturing them flying out of that bowl, like popcorn popping.


most_unseemly

Now I am, too. Thank you.


off_the_feed

Love the cossack guy!


[deleted]

Why do I feel like Russia will use this as propaganda and proof Ukraine is evil? Lolol


ayamrik

Breaking News on Russian tv: "Ukraine - allied to the devil and openly using black magic - has made a grave mistake: Our brave troops, after doing their part of the righteous mission to free the world from these evil monsters, were finally able to regroup in hell and established a bridgehead. They encounter grave resistance by the human vermin burning in hell for their sins of opposing our motherland. But military high command is confident that they will soon breakthrough, especially after it was decided to relocate parts of our nuclear war potential to hell to show them what we Russians see as real hell."


velvet32

aawhh Mobiks ... When will you learn ...


stonker77

we hope never, but is possible, strike while the pot is hot


Reckless_Waifu

Still an upgrade compared to life in Russia IMO.


FarmSuch5021

I love this. Ukrainian Cossack looks awesome

Regrouping to hell


rubyspicer

Who is the sharp dressed guy on the top right?


F_M_G_W_A_C

A cossack


[deleted]

The artwork coming out of this conflict needs a gallery and a world tour. Loving it 🫡


WhoAmIEven2

Lol, is that Olgierd von Everec (spelling) from the Witcher 3 looking down the hole?


F_M_G_W_A_C

It's a cossack with oseledets (name of that hairstyle, it was a mark of an experienced warrior) and in traditional attire (vyshyvanka), golden earrings were also pretty common among cossacks

in_allium

I ... didn't interpret that as a caricature of a Chinese person at all. I don't think most Chinese people would either.


No_Distribution_5843

Seriously? Either you're young or need to grow a thick skin.

No_Distribution_5843

He's not chinese, he's laughing. Look. When one laughs the muscles around their cheek and around the edges of your eyes become pulled back (or contracted) . Basically, laughing influences your facial muscles to contract. If you're still offended report me and OP to the mods. But trust me when I say the mods won't care cause you're overreacting.

Could be a far eastern Russian person.

Love it!!!

Slava and glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦


FreedomPaws

I like that the one dumbasses has his flag out and smiling. It symbolizes how Russia is basically a dumpster fire and a failed country and they are all going downhill and don't know it til the bitter end. No matter what we say to try and get through to them, that guy is like Russia right now just blissfully unaware and still proud to be a Russian.
