I mean what do we expect, these men had problems before war and now they have these problems plus a war trauma and now that Wagner might not have the money to keep all of them, they are on the streets with no job and not much money and probably no help for the trauma.
There will be a huge amount of men that weren't in prison that come home with a war trauma and/or severe injuries and not much help, which then creates gererational trauma in their families. That's why wars do not just end, but live long inside a country after the actual war has stopped. It is worse if you fight in a war that is seen by most people as an attack and a crime, it can make the trauma more severe.
i emphasize with the women and children of russia who are gonna have to deal with this. a good chunk of a generation of men are gone, dead or fled, and the ones who do come back are gonna be broken men. things are gonna get worse in russia before they get better.
