    Similar to Russia, as the government makes the economy worse, more people will be willing to join the army. In the US&A, it’s a much easier decision compared to Russia. Most soldiers don’t risk their lives and get killed by drones; they just need to overcome their conscience and commit atrocities against innocent people.

    Thought real hard from the sound of things. Real hard.

    She's "just tryna make her nut" but get this, if you help the fascists your nut just keeps getting bigger and you keep getting sadder. Committing immoral acts and watching as your country gets worse and your bills just go up.

    What a world that the best portrayal of this bullshit stance is from a toilet humour cartoon.
