This is funny, but also pretty unhinged.

It's a direct response to that time when Ukraine paraded captured Russian tank in Kiev, among the huge gloating by nafobots and the like.

It's not unhinged, it probably caused some serious anxiety because what they want to say by this is that "the ~~North~~ Russia remembers"

To be fair, it was also unhinged when the Kiev regime did it. I say this because to me, it feels like a glorification of war. This isn't to say that I disapprove (not that that matters). As you say, it's a direct response and I still think it's pretty funny.

I don't see it as unhinged, rather Ukranian officials showing people the losses being inflicted on the invaders and inspiring hope. Makes total sense when you fear your country and people are in danger of being eradicated.
