    Part of me just can’t help put this in the frame-of-reference of the Iraq War.

    I’m forced to imagine a bunch of terminally online war geeks clapping and cheering every time the Pentagon announced another big operation in Haditha or a re-occupation of Fallujah.

    Trying to square that with the absolute horror of a war sent my head spinning then. And not much has changed since.

      You’re welcome to fuck off if you can’t handle it.

      In the meantime, allow us to cheer for Ukraine while it defends itself from a genocidal russia.

      So you’re not a big fan of countries invading other countries? Well you’re in luck, this is all about a country that’s been invaded fighting off those invaders and reclaiming their land and people.

        Ethnic Russians in Donetsk see it as the other way around.

            Can we get the jury in on this? Might be a record for fastest “3 day maneuver good actually” reveal
