This used to be standard practice in Russian army( maybe it still is in more rural oblasts ).
New conscripts were beaten up on day one. Some more brutally than others. Later, those that were beaten up on their first days...will carry on the tradition and beat up the next generation.
In Russian military, the old saying:
" A nail that sticks out gets hammered down" was applied quite literally. If you weren't exactly like everyone else, then you got daily beatings until you were...or until you committed suicide.

""I wrote these comments under the influence of Western propaganda" - a "civilian initiative" was launched in Sevastopol, Crimea. It puts "russophobes, Ukronazis and traitors of the motherland" on a list. Then they are forced to apologize and "improve".

Stalin's methods thrive."

1. "Shooting Leopard 2A6 ,,, cockpit view ."

It's unknown if this video is in Ukraine or still training grounds footage. Most likely the latter as I haven't seen any other evidence of Leopards being on the battle field yet.

2. Quick footage of Russian forces transporting S-300V somewhere in Donetsk region.

""The Basic Principles of Military Propaganda".

In 2001, the Belgian historian Anna Morelli, created "The Basic Principles of Military Propaganda" in a monograph. In her research, she relied on the historical experience of previous totalitarian and authoritarian regimes.

Today's Russia, led by Putin, follows the path of Hitler's Germany and strangely embodies everything that Morelli wrote about.

The main principles by which the Kremlin justifies its aggressive policy are as follows:

☠️We do not want war, we only defend ourselves.

☠️Our adversary bears all responsibility for this war.

☠️The leader of our opponent is evil and looks like the devil.

☠️We defend a noble cause, not our special interests.

☠️The enemy purposefully commits atrocities, but it is unintentional if we make mistakes.

☠️The opponent uses a prohibited weapon.

☠️Our losses are small, the enemy's losses are significant.

☠️Recognized intellectuals and artists support our cause.

☠️Our work is holy and sacred.

☠️Anyone who questions our propaganda is helping the enemy and is a traitor."
