about russia's answer to this morning's attack

a truly excellent essay — very mistakenly elevates sanctions instead of kinetic warfare — mistakenly asserts it despite all the evidence that it kills and immiserates as many and more humans than kinetic engagements — completely ignores that countries pushing each other around behind the veil of protecting their people are as starkly primative, brutal, terrorist, murderous as any thug in history — jimmy carter's WORST error was to convince people that it is more humane than war — more christian — BALDERDASH — elon's out there singing about how ai will be the thing that lifts us ALL out of this immortal slaughtering for more — is he wrong?
