Some here may have heard of dedovshina, a phenomenon in the Russian (and also most other former Soviet) military forces where older troops bully younger new conscripts. These days increasingly the problem is becoming ethnically charged, because conscripts from North Caucasus and those from, for example, Central Russia, have constant fights and clashes. Muslim troops refuse to do cleaning duty, because it is against the Koran for a man to do this type of work. Conflicts arise. And, usually, the Muskovites and Peterburgians get the worst of it. Our North Caucasian boys are involved in sports and martial arts since early age, they know how to fight. Moscow youth know how to drink beer, no offense to any if here, but it is true.North Caucasians also, because there are very few of us, comparatively to the Slavs, tend to hang together and defend each other. You would not see Chechens or Dargins or us Cossacks hazing our own. Russians/Slavs do, all the time. So, they lose out to North Caucasians and then complain.
I know it is wrong to blame the victim, but think yourself.
Cossacks grow up with a weapon in hand
Physically fit, involved in sports, and learn martial arts/hand-to-hand combat
Chechens, for example, grow up similarly. In North Caucasus, children take sports and martial arts trophies since early age
Combat and war are the most common skills of men. Boys grow up with one future in mind: military. Success in war brings glory. That is the way there. When Cossacks and Chechens serve together, there is no problems. There is no love, but there is a mutual respect, we see each other as equals, as warriors.
But when these... I am sorry... sissies and mommie's boys, from Moscow or wherever, come and are in the same barracks with our guys, it starts.
They are alcoholics, weak, pathetic
Yet our boys should treat them as equals? How?
They should clean themselves up, put away the bottle, lift some weights, hit the punching bag. We'll see them as our equals when they actually are.
