    Imagine having an obscene amount of money for the rest of your life, and the thing you decide to do is to invent more devices and methods to kill people.

      Because they’re not good people.

      I think we try to analyze stuff and always give benefit of doubt because life’s weird but some people are just bad - Occam’s razor and everything.

      I recently watched a great video on how drug dealers who deal Tranq justify selling dangerous drugs (by Channel 5 on yt) and the host had a great monolog on how many of these people create these fake realities to justify that “their just a cog in the machine” and have no choice and obviously this is a spectrum of sorts. But this mega rich cunt has all of the choices. Literally. So, it’s evil. No excuse.

        And Israel, SA…, Don’t forget their best buddies!

        Anything that is in the way of $ is against the US interests.

          Saudi Arabia having drones would have been able to destroy Houthi militants which would have prevented Houthis attacking shipping

                And at how many 10s of thousand civilians does it stop being self-defense?

                Reminds me of another war not so long ago.
