What
Vatnik:
A perjoritive referring to a person that eagerly and without criticism repeats jingoistic propaganda claims of the Russian government.
In this context, someone pretending they don't understand that it's easier and cheaper to kill a person than a tank.
So because I think we shouldn't send tanks to a warzone where its only going to be used to kill people and turn the operator into a much larger less maneuverable target that makes me some kind if Russian stooge?
Maybe its you that has been propagandized into thinking more tanks in a war zone is a good thing. Ive always been taught war is bad and it should not be prolonged. This is just prolonging it while getting more Ukrainians and Russians killed.
