just use the english article dumbass >  dovshchina > dedovshchina involves the existence of unofficial hierarchical relationships that parallel the main formal ones, not excluding cases where officers are not only aware of dedovshchina but also use it to maintain "order."[4] > objective studies show that dedovshchina is a product of non-statutory economic activity in the armed forces.[5] at the same time, dedovshchina is an auxiliary tool in the hands of the leadership, which can shift most of its responsibilities for maintaining order to the leaders of the informal hierarchy,[4] offering them some benefits in return (early dismissals, lenient attitude to guilt, reduced physical activity, etc.) no definition lists it as " just the nice way russians refer to fucking each other in the ass" you fucking cretin. not even your quote says that.
