I saw that recruitment advertisement differently. I read that as, regardless of occupation... you will be mobilized.

Russian men are leaving the country to save their lives.

Be a real man. Hunker down in a bunker in the Kremlin, sit behind 40ft tables, and only visit troops with no notice, like a thief in the night, or even use a body double.

"it doesn't take much strength to pull a trigger. but try and get up every morning day after day, and work for a living to earn good money for the family" that for me is a real man!

Real men reject war . And work for peace.

A security guard, a gym trainer, and a taxi driver. It’s interesting that they didn’t choose CEO, news anchor, and bank manager.

Real men don't volunteer to die, for a dictator.

Everybody knows that Emma’s Two Moms are the only respectful ad in our time

Russia’s definition of Real Men = Cannon Fodder 😎

[skmo]

The irony of it as Putin hides in a bunker

[kayowem]

Real men are those WHO is willing to die for their own country not to invade other country

Funny how the "main comments" are filtered to seem like people is agreeing with CNN, but when you go to the most recent ones things change...

Russian Advert for recruitment "Be a real dead Man, join the Russian Military"

[einherjar]

Real men can't be made to feel obligated to kill or die for anyone.

[dreigroschen]

It sure takes men to defend the motherland and not people who identify something or other.

[jayd]

Yeh, in Russia, men are men and women are women - the US used to be that way in the 50’s. How horrible! Question: was the US a better place to live then or now?

[James-kesx]

If real men want to live long enough to be old men I would suggest leaving Russia forever. There is no future in Russia anymore.

[byssyba]

Russian 'real men' including didn't get paid

[alcozar]

Real men go off to war to get murdered ???? NO!

[pipsqeak]

CNN doesnt realize that this is what people sign up for, not emmas moms
