   #Russia propagandist Anastasiya Kashevarova complains that Russian law enforcement prepares for mass returns of war veterans primarily with the assumption that they will behave like savages. One police officer she talked to in Barnaul literally said that they consider the “SMO [special military operation[ veterans to be imbeciles, killers and criminals” and “when they return, we will promptly imprison them”.

   To be honest, this perception is largely justified by the cult of extreme violence and lawlessness cultivated in Russian army. Local Russian media frequently report violent crime by veterans returning home or rotation, and law enforcement reaction is usually lenient by orders from above. These are of course rarely reported by the state-wide media.

   If you encourage men on the front line to behead prisoners of war, rape, loot and execute “retaliatory” bombings of civilian houses why would you expect they will become model law abiding citizens after returning home? Especially if they were sent to fight in an offensive war abroad, which was unrolled for no obvious reason?
