3 years agoThey seem so like us. That is what makes it so shocking. War is no longer something visited upon impoverished and remote populations. It can happen to anyone
This is making me so fucking angry. The fucking inhumanity dripping from this statement, as if War is just something passive that YOUR fucking countries and countrymen haven’t visited upon those ‘impoverished and remote’ populations. Fuck you. Shit like this makes me want to just not even give a fuck about the plight of the people being affected by all this. What would it mean to someone from all the war torn countries to see shit like this and wonder why they should care about an invaded populace that largely views them as savages?
Dread it. Run from it. Finance capital still arrives all the same. And this time, it’s licking its chops at the thought of getting a two for one deal with Ukraine and Russia. Russian Oligarchs dividing up the pie? Bad. Western oligarchs doing the same? :so-true:
