It’s nazis turning on nazis. I don’t care who wins, I just care that they decimate each other so this invasion stops before the potential outcome of Trump ending up back in office.

IIRC a large enough portion are also prisoners that get pardoned if they help with the war effort. (obviously can’t run away/desert though.)

Is anyone actually rooting for these guys, or for the Russian army? I haven’t seen anyone calling Prigozhin a good guy.

Neither of them are good guys. Hopefully they distract each other from the war crimes in Ukraine. Take themselves out of the picture

I don’t think anyone is rooting for them. More like excited for them to destroy each other. It’s like Jerry Springer but with geopolitics

I think it’s an enemy of my enemy type of thing. Civil war in Russia may or may not be a good thing. I am not smart enough to know.

I think they know. They’re hoping the two military groups invading Ukraine eat each other.

Yeah, but every dead wagnerite and every soldier that needs to fight them is one less in Ukraine so that works for me

I don’t see a single comment on this post cheering on the Wagner Group. What “people” are you talking about?

True but internal fighting weakens russia

That might be too tl;dr. :p

Historically wagner is Putin’s personal army, so I believe that this move is just to make skapegoats from Shoigu and the others from their national army.

So I believe that a loss for wagner’s troops would mean Putin’s arrest and the beginning of russian reconstruction, and that would be cool.

Also, the russian national forces have more legitimacy to rebuild Russia whitout Putin and also to not descend into total chaos.
