An American father who moved to Russia to avoid LGBTQ+ indoctrination for his kids is being sent to the front line against Ukraine despite being assured he would serve in a non-combat role.
Derek Huffman, 46, feels he is being thrown to the wolves after being told that his job in the military would be as a correspondent or as a welder, his wife, DeAnna, said in a recorded plea for prayers, which has since been removed from her YouTube page.
Huffman has no prior military experience, DeAnna said, adding that his limited training was conducted in Russian. She suggested this language barrier has made her husband particularly unprepared for the horrors of combat.

He moved his family to an authoritarian shithole that is worse by pretty much every imaginable metric, where he doesn't even speak the fucking language, but hey, at least gay and trans people face oppression there.

Reminds me of that American couple who moved there last year for similar reasons and had their entire life savings stolen. lol

They think because their dear leader has a hard-on for Putin everything must be cool there. Dumb fucks get what they deserve.

It's more like avoiding 72 & Sunny weather but the Bible said it was 20 degrees.

They were from Canada

They had a 16 year old who absolutely refused and left to go stay with his aunt.

Oh right, but they did it for the same reasons. Russia's a country you'd want to escape from, not immigrate to.

just do what other russian soldiers have been doing, and shoot your commanding officer. lots of units doing that and defecting to ukraine right now.

yeah, his family will likely die for it, but he honestly doesn't really give a fuck about them so...
