Indifference is just a tool they use - the root cause is Greed.
They hate immigrants, but love slave labour. Then use immigrants "taking jobs" (what the farm owners actually want, because slaves are very profitable and locals would never do that work at that wage) to rile up the population to vote for Conservative governments, who often don't change the influx of immigrants but who does love to lower taxes and turn a blind eye to labour abuses.
I am not sure what point you are trying to make, or how it relates to my comment/the article?
Even if we're talking about someone who simply lacks basic or any morals, that would make them even more susceptible to Greed.
Especially when using a system specifically designed to provide them with vulnerable people who are mostly hidden from public and given less wages and rights, don't know local laws, and are incredibly desperate.
What a convenient coincidence, heartless Greed finds itself flush with unlimited desperate workers. Again.
You forgot my favorite of sleep-hating-brain internal dialogue!
"Why would you need to sleep until your alarm goes off when I can wake you early and you can be anxious about not sleeping! Or all the stuff you feel you should now start but are too tired to do even though you know I won't let you sleep!
Wouldn't want to sleep through that! Why do you think I kept you up so late??"
"how things work" is, and always has been a suggestion. It used to be enforced, and recently enforcement has been entirely up to the opinions and personal beliefs of the enforcers. If there ever is an issue with this selective enforcement, there is unlimited wealth shielding selective enforcers from consequences.
Trump personally may not be technically able to do anything as president elect for Ukraine support, but multiple cogs in government may suspiciously stop working preventing anything from getting done.
Democrats believe in "how things are done" vs Republicans who believe "who is going to stop us when we're in power"
If you think you're going to stop a Republican from doing what they want by pointing to pieces of paper, you haven't been paying attention to the last decade.

I doubt Russia cares, but it's usually 'better' to have the injured return behind enemy lines
Takes more manpower/resource to care for injured
Other soldiers see what's waiting for them, which is demoralizing
Other soldiers may notice a lack of care for the wounded which is demoralizing
People at home seeing large amounts of the population return without limbs, bringing the horrors of war to the population
Injured person may not be so loyal to Russia anymore
Obviously there are soldiers who have unique training/skills/knowledge that are hard to replace where their death is more beneficial for war. But for foot soldiers any injury that stops them from participating pays dividends.
Honestly, in a good chunk of the videos the Russian soldiers injured by UAV will pop grenades on themselves rather than bleed out or experience Russian hospitality
I've seen a fair bit of soldiers getting hit by UAVs, but they usually came out of damaged vehicles or are embedded in trenches and therefore participating in combat. But it totally makes sense to eliminate threats when Ukrainian troops are moving into that territory.
It seems wasteful to kill a dieing soldier if no Ukrainians are entering the area anytime soon, especially if there are other healthy soldiers in the area to decommission
Obviously this video has Ukrainian military actively in the war zone, and it totally makes sense to eliminate any threat with UAV instead of people.
Not saying you're wrong, but I can only comment on what I've seen
"We've almost got some of their telecommunications cracked; the front end even runs on a laptop!" The Mac that sunk a thousand ships could have been merely clunky product placement, not a bafflingly stupid tech-on-film moment....
He ends up taping a plastic sheet over the hole with what I assume is super strong space tape and plastic and then continues to live in the station for 550 more days.
We spend the first half of the movie learning how unforgiving the environment is, and how delicate his ecosystem for life is, but you can also blow half the place up and just tape some plastic over the hole.
They did a much better job of explaining it in the book, but the movie literally went "just tape that bitch up with plastic, then we'll throw a wind storm at it to prove it's good forever"
So many videogames I enjoyed just ended before last boss
Decent job with lots of down time, and I desperately want to want to learn more things and give myself potential for career advancement and some job flexibility. Like I really want to be able to do it, but I just can't bring myself to start because I don't need to, even though I like learning new things.
Even when I complete a home project, or accomplish a life goal, it's just kind of.... Meh? Well that's done I guess?
There's also a constant battle of feeling anxious in most social settings, but feeling guilty/lonely without them. Almost like juggling two things you don't particularly like, trying to find the balance where you're least mentally uncomfortable.
It's great having videogames, but you can only do something so much before everything starts to feel formulaic and unfulfilling.
There is always a feeling or sensation that I should/could be doing something else unless I'm hyper fixated on something
Because people don't hate getting scammed by their scam artist.
Conservatives also tend to make politics a core part of their identity, which allows conservative governments to get away with doing everything they accuse Liberals of doing mostly without consequences.
Canada has some of the most apathetic voters in the world, so I don't expect anything in this country to improve anytime soon.
People will simply trade getting screwed by the letters L/C and be certain they are one election away from all of their problems going away.

What plot holes could be adequately explained away with a single shot or line of dialogue?
