Russia’s war reaches the sandbox as tank carousels and fighter jets take over Moscow’s playgrounds

The Russian government's push for militaristic propaganda has now infiltrated Moscow's playgrounds, where children are exposed to tank carousels and fighter jet replicas. This comes as part of a broader campaign to instill nationalist ideology, coinciding with the 80th anniversary of the Soviet victory in World War II. The shift reflects a concerning trend in how childhood is being framed in the context of ongoing geopolitical tensions. This move not only shapes young minds but also underscores the regime's broader strategy to embed militarism in every aspect of daily life.
