i just hate the disgusting defilement of the human body and soul in this and all wars. it’s happening every moment in ukraine (in capitol font): and it didn’t have to happen!
in order for this war not to have happened, all the ukrainians had to do is just stay home, regardless of what their paid off politicians say. but they didn’t say no, and decided to die for foreign oligarchs. unfortunately this once again shows that humanity is just not mature enough yet to make their own decisions. that is if you consider npcs human at all.
i agree with you, i will fight human beings to live in an extraterrestrial life form, i would love to get rid of my human genetics, human genetics are brutal and cruel. they are meant to cause disruption on earth, all the wars, secret systems with high-piercing accuarcy modules in south pole station, climate changes, natural disasters… this race has been doomed and cursed since it has existed. why can’t humanity get any better? too worried about filling their pockets?

drugs are given to the ukrainians because no one in their right mind would endure this for zelensky’s new mansion in egypt.
true, this billionaire dictator owns a lot of mansions it seems. perhaps, he likes spending his money on luxurious items, instead of buying f-16s or something to support his terr-orists peasants fighting a losing war.
zelensky’s cruel and pathetic regime seems to have fallen off, it seems. i think he should start a new war in taiwan, i’m very confident u.s. brutal regime has some interest in destroying taiwan as well.

i wish they’d stop destroying our equipment. we told zelensky….make sure your guys stay at least 50 yards (that’s like meters, right?) away from our equipment when on break, so they blow your guys up first. does he listen? hell no. i think we need that biletsky guy to run the show.
