    a global generation that won’t be storming any beaches or cities would be a blessing for the world

    imagine a generation in russia that just keeps doing what they do instead of listening to an old psychopath in Moscow who decides that it would be “good” to send hundreds of thousands to their deaths to bring death and destruction to millions of others

    being peaceful is not a shame!

      Yeah but… they seemed to not have realized that it would be THEM being used as cannon fodder. They thought they could just reap the benefits without having to lift a finger. It was going to be “repeal and then replace”, and then once they swallowed that line, it reeled them in when it was too late to pull back.

      i.e. they were promised peace - the territorial expansion was only supposed to last 3 days and that hardly counted in their eyes - and did not realize that by having elected Putin, it was already too late.

      There is also no shame in fighting to demilitarize a dictatorship or tear down a theocracy, though. Tolerance ends with the Intolerant, I only hope that the Zoomers understand that at least as well as Millennials.

        Good people can’t kill without shame.

            They absolutely do not.

              They can think about that in great philosophical detail when it’s them on the chopping block next.

                Why wait? They could think about it right now, in all the places it’s blatantly not true.

        fight will end when everybody refuses to fight, not when people with their noble reasons find justifiable excuses to keep fighting

        enemy is not detestable theocracies or sick dictators but thinking that there are enemies

        we are one and we should act like one

      Song

      Translation

      How much years unending

      Slaughters inhumane

      On children fall from sky

      Bombs as bunch of anger

      Tanks’ place is in museums

      Let them quietly rust there

      Body of mother is scarred

      Warriors’ place is in romance

      Wars are not glory

      Groans in bloody mess

      Tears, dirt on uniform

      Wars don’t have a place in the world

      Tanks’ place is in museums

      Let them quietly rust there

      In tales of old empires

      People don’t belive anymore

      “Homo homini lupus est” is what we said when

      Voice of reason was silent in world and war raged everywhere

      When lives were worthless, people were seen only as soldiers

      And entire world was turning to burning hell

      Why didn’t we become smarter Isn’t it’s time already

      To understand as a matter of fact that more important

      For hammer of war to stop clutter

      Tanks’ place is in museums

      Let them quietly rust there

      Even as toys

      Kids don’t need to know them
