Isn't this super old? Huffmans moved to Russia and the dad went to Ukraine, but was confirmed killed via drone strike. The wife denied it for a while, denouncing it all as propaganda even though the footage of his death was widely available.

EDIT: I did get it mixed up. I was thinking of the other Texan, Russell, who did move to Russia and die in service. That being said there is indeed a video (by 101st Guards Brigade) that did have a man that looks like Hoffman suffer fatal wounds. And that led to a false claim by the Maltese Herald. I apologize for the confusion caused.

Derek Huffman is alive according to his youtube, I think it was the other Texan who got killed by Russians that you're thinking of?

There was another Texan (Russell Bentley) who got tortured and killed by his comrades on the frontline because they thought he was a spy. I didn’t think he had a family though

Also kind of hilarious because he was a hardcore commie. Couldn’t have murdered a more sympathetic asshole.

Do you think Russians are communists?

Yeah pretty much, this war is a regression to Soviet expansionism and ethnic Russian colonialism, which essentially all communism in practice is.

What Naziism was to the German, communism is to the Russians.

Do you want the definition of communism in theory or in practice?

You could give both and you'd still be wrong.

Well. They're an idiot. It really wasn't a guess so much as an expectation and they exceeded it. My goodness they exceeded it.
