Russian authorities have chosen a bizarre way to express their gratitude to the mothers of soldiers killed in the war in Ukraine, gifting them meat grinders and flowers for International Women’s Day.

It's even worse: They weren't gifts to Ukrainian mothers, Russia gave them to their own.

That's far more fucked than a troll gift to 'the enemy'.

Took their sons, forced them into a figurative meat grinder for a needless war, then gave them literal meat grinders as souvenirs...
