Sitting in a cafe in the city of Mykolaiv right now, everything runs on generators. Earlier today, around 7:45 local time a few shahed drones flew over the city, this was after a lqrge attack from about 6 hours prior. Multiple energy distribution systems were hit in multiple regions. There were people killed, some drones hit homes, there were myltiple kinjal (dagger) missiles launched from mig-31 platforms. I crossed the border to Ukraine over 2 weeks ago, spent a week in Kiev, a day in Lviv, a day in Odessa, etc. Everywhere there are issues with energy distribution. Where I am now there are issues with watwr as well of course. People keep going because tbat is what people do, nobody here wants to give up anything to ruzzia, they want to stop the war in a way that prevents future attacs from the scourge that is ruzzia. As to this lawsuit, it is completely justified but it is not enough. Europe is giving ruzzia more money every year in oil and purchases than Europe spends on this war, given tbat Ukraine is protecting Europe from putin taking this war further west, I find this behaviour atrocious.

At this point, he's merely a useful idiot for the Project 2025 people. Their idea of economic growth is their investments grow. And they take particular care to feed la Presidenta a fair proportion of social stupidity orders to keep the Maggots worrying about who is using the "wrong" bathrooms than who is stealing them blind. They mask these stupid orders in "morality" when actually caring about people is not on their agenda.

"It's gun control all over again and the answer is NOT to withhold capability from people, it's to empower good actors to defend against the bad ones and distribute power widely to keep central authorities in check."

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... (as a tag on one of their graphs): U.S. gun homicide rates exceed total homicide rates in high-income OECD countries.

So how's arming everyone and their uncle's dog working out for you, eh?
