I’m sure other types of Ukrainian munitions have killed civilians as well given that the Russians use them as human shields.

It’s not good, I’m not happy about it and I’m glad I’m not the one who has to make the decisions.

However, I was talking about targeting civilians specifically.

And I don’t think your example is anywhere near the same ballpark as specifically targeting fleeing civilians.

The cluster munition attack with the highest known civilian casualties occurred on April 8, 2022, when Russia launched a Tochka-U ballistic missile equipped with a cluster munition warhead at a crowded train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk as hundreds of people were trying to leave the area. A detailed Human Rights Watch investigation found that the attack killed at least 58 civilians and injured over 100 others.

And the ruskies are using them in civilian targets.

Beyond that, know what else has a chance of exploding well after the war and injuring or killing someone?

You know what both Ukrain and Russia have already use many thousands more of than Ukraine has been issued cluster munitions?

You know what no one is moralizing about so hard they shit their pants?

So your stance is that his statement “I hope I am wrong. My gut tells me will fight in 2025,” is indicative of a US plan to go to war with China in 2025?

I don’t think it was even that. He was so 100% going to lose the fight to not buy Twitter that even for someone with his resources it wasn’t worth fighting. He made a weak attempt to embarrass Twitter into backing out due to public opinion, but didn’t really have any options after that. He just fucked up that magnificently with the initial contract.

You’re entitled to do whatever you want.

But people who speak in dog whistles, even obvious ones like this, don’t answer when asked about their dog whistles.

I’m going to stick with assuming one word dog whistle comments with scare quotes aren’t made in good faith.

OP is of course free to refute.

He’s implying a conspiracy theory that war with China has already been decided on.

he’s an idiot.

Facebook somehow makes about $18 per person on the planet in ad revenue.

Norway is 5 million people or $90 million/year all else being equal.

$100k/day is $36.5 million/year.

So, it’s less than it should be by probably a factor of 4-5, but still not so small they won’t feel it
