    Have you seen the “ghost of Kiev” memes? Or “St javelin” memes? Or the endless stream of “Russian ship fuck off”? Hell, I’ve seen grown up people call soldiers being killed by artillery and the like “getting dabbed on”.

      Yep seen them all. All of this has the same energy as the settlers that pay to watch IDF snipe Palestinians from a distance. They enjoy war, especially one where the suffering is so distant. There is no saving western libs, their interests and hegemony, even reddit upvotes, are more important than stopping a war.

        This, I think, is the key element here

      Westoids paying money to write messages on artillery shells as well, they’re treating it like a game and cheering on a sports team

        It’s all fun and games until it’s your ass on the line. If they announce the US is going boots-on-the-ground into Ukraine tomorrow, I guarantee this shit will just stop. NAFO and whatever General they wheel out of the Pentagon won’t be able to talk the average American into dying for a country they don’t actually care for.
