"Guns don't kill people. People kill people."
Somebody whose name i forgot
Generally keeping myself out of this war mess, while not trying to justify Russia's bullshit they pull off, a lot of what PrivacyG said resonates with me.
Anyway, let me correct above quote, it is from Stan Smith, famous CIA agent and actually goes like:
"Guns don't kill people, guns defend people from other people with smaller guns."Not making fun of the misery of war here, but given that we are in a dead-end that seemingly can only be ended in MAD or Putin getting a "friendly" helping hand from fellow Russians in "resigning" I think we should laugh as long as we still can. (As some commenter pointed out on CNN, Putin has no reverse gear, I don't see any other alternative to these two outcomes).
Also the whole fun watching corn price go up or down is gone now. When it goes up, I feel guilty because it possibly goes up because or despite people dying. If it goes down I feel ashamed that I think that is a problem while people die.
Fuck Putin for taking the fun out of wall observing.
