Refugee from Russia Podcast: They Are Preparing New Meat — Children in Southern Russia Are Being Taught War

In this episode, we examine a disturbing headline about children in southern Russia being taught war. What does the phrase “new meat” reveal about how militarized patriotism is shaping young people, and why does it matter beyond Russia’s borders?We discuss the broader ecosystem of military messaging in schools, youth organizations, camps, cadet programs, and public events, and how these experiences can normalize war for the next generation. This is a careful look at propaganda, patriotism, and the way children can be drawn into a culture of conflict.Note: This episode is based on a translated headline and context, so some specifics may be limited by translation. The goal is to understand the larger pattern and what it suggests about the direction of society.
