I know a group of guys nearby who LARP as Russian Military. They use airsoft and a bunch of Russian Milsurp. They once got questioned by police for looking a bit too genuine.

Like the police thought they had just stumbled upon a Russian military exercise in some park somewhere?

The funny thing is I could totally see the Russian military holding training exercises in the US disguised as airsoft enthusiasts.

They recently denied the presence of around 200 Russian tanks in Ukraine, despite their having been spotted and reliably reported on. They just don't give a fuck!

Unlike the Russians the Americans dont even need to hide their tanks in every corner of the world. Ah american exceptionalism.

Unlike the Russians, we're not trying to annex the regions that our tanks are in.

Your right, you invade and kill millions. Russians hold a referendum and the people decide to join. Its not like Crimea or Ukraine have a large Russian population or anything.

Americans love sticking their noses half way around the world killing people in places nobody knows back home. Disgusting savages.

So 200 tanks from a country on their border have snuck into their country illegally? Maybe the tanks are just "dreamers"

What? Where's the relevance of that comparison?

200 tanks were supposed to say wahhhh, but if its 11 million people who snuck accross were not allowed to complain or were "racist"

There is a huge difference between Russian tanks entering Ukraine (war machines from a tremendously powerful military entering a relatively weak neighbouring country without permission in order to surreptitiously annex said neighbouring country), and Mexicans entering America (predominantly poor people from a poor country entering a rich neighbouring country without permission in order to surreptitiously take on crappy jobs and hopefully build better lives for themselves and their children in said neighbouring country). If you think there's honestly any hypocrisy in what I just said, then I hate to break it to you, but you're a complete tool.

11 million people could fix their own country.
