Out of the half a million troops killed I wonder how many were actually Russians? Doesn’t look like things are working out for them.

That number doesn’t mean KIA. That encompasses all casualties. So if you got arms and legs blown off and can no longer fight, you are lumped into that number. The KIA number is around 130-140k. Which is still a lot of people.
In context of the war, this number is more relevant. Dead or too injured to fight, fewer troops are fewer troops. It doesn’t really matter what percentage in that 466,150 number are still alive when it comes to Russia’s chances against the Ukrainian military.
Not disputing that. Just that OP labeled them all as killed. Any Russian sent home in a box or carried out on a litter is a win for democracy.

I do kind of feel good when i see aggressor troops fall/perish . At least that soldier can’t kill anymore defenders, so it’s like a +X ukrainian lives lootdrop that pop’s out of them. I’m not happy a human is now dead, but I am happy that there is one soldier less in poot poot’s army killing other people in their home country.
Cough Vietnam, cough Falklands, sniffle gulf war.
Do you feel the same when it’s the “good guys” doing it?
Sure! Aggressors can fuck right off :)
If you loose an arm or a leg as a russian fighter, you are not gonna survive. Doubtful you will even be looked at twice. A wounded russian is a MIA russian. Russia is a cold place. Not just literally.
