In Militarizing Push, Russian School Children To Build Drones
-
Russia will soon teach high school students how to build and fly drones, which have become a key weapon in the war between Moscow and Kyiv.
“Right now, there’s a huge demand from both the state and society for unmanned aerial systems,” said Mikhail Lutskiy, head of educational projects at Geoscan Group, the leading drone manufacturer in Russia.
Russia last year launched a nationwide project called Unmanned Aerial Systems to promote both the domestic production of drones and preparation of drone pilots and other specialists starting with high school students.

Oh noooo!!! Scary Russians!!! jfc.
The indoctrination system in USA is completely controlled by the MIC. Almost all of the R&D is funded for violence. This starts way before college. Probably every kid will be working for the military at some point. Drones are just the tip of the iceberg:

Seems to remind me of Hitler Youth for some reason...

Gotta wake up to the reality that USA is doing the exact same thing.
-
Are we forgetting that the US has JROTC in schools? Literally training kids for the military...
Yes and they literally have a drone competition. It's the exact same thing as russia.

It really is not cause nothing is as blatant as ruzi media
It only looks that way from inside the imperial bubble.
-
All bad things are equally bad?
Yes, most people think that lies in service to violent control is bad.

Positively dystopian.
Positively american.

Positively american.
No. We have our own dystopia, our kids get shot in the classroom. We don’t have them assemble the guns to kill other people.
Big difference.

Links to Radio Free Europe articles get posted way too often on Lemmy. It's just RT for the US government.
I don’t think that’s a completely fair comparison. They are both state tools for establishing power through narratives. They are both heavily biased.
But RT is Orwellian in that it just makes shit up and has no respect for even appearing credible. While RFE/RFL tends to be biased towards publishing pro-western stories, but they don’t tend to make shit up from scratch.
Of course, who knows what the fuck is happening there right now, my analysis is pre-Trump 2024.

Surely there are better sources of information than the Donald Trump administration's state media. Unless they think DOGE installed sycophants everywhere but there.

Hey guess what? Both of these can be bad. I'd argue that the case in "Russia" is a bit worse, seeing as this is actually not Russia, but Crimea. That said, the militarization of children is fucking awful anywhere.

Ummm no! Our drones have crosses on them because Jesus is king.
