Dead Internet theory is becoming more than just a theory

You can do 4 just fine, it just looks goofy

“takes a conservative turn” - how to spot a journalist who learned about russia yesterday.

Where’s the meme

doesn’t work for me in boost ):

My inner child is dead and I killed them in about second year of university because of fear of other people and lack of money for anything beyond food and tuition -> no fun times except for the computer -> depression, unmedicated for 3 years.

And now that I have money, I’m a mess after years of neglect, and I forgot how to have fun, and I still suffer from depression.

I automatically have zero respect for anyone using that chinese spyware trash.

I pay for stuff when I have money to spare or when it’s more convenient like with Factorio or Rimworld where updating mods is infinitely easier through official channels.

I can even understand unwillingness to give ATACMS, you don’t have a lot of them and need them all to fight Mexican drug cartels or whatever you would use ballistic missiles for in 2023.

You don’t even use f16 anymore, and just sold some to Vietnam recently.

There’s at least few hundreds Abrams tanks sitting in the desert in dry storage. But no, 31 is all we get.

And the total clownery of political debate where at least two candidates build their platform on being friends with russia and china and stopping all support to Ukraine.

And the total clownery of passing a lend lease act in 2022 and then not using it - trusting Ukraine to win so as to not burden us with returning leased hardware, but not trusting enough to give enough to win.

I’m glad you have some optimism left in you. I don’t.

Trump or that clown Sunak winning your election will have catastrophic effects for my country who’s been in full scale war for almost 2 years. All the while the “allies” drag this war out by giving bullshit reasons to not send long range missiles and aircraft (uwu 5-8 months basic proficiency for fighter pilots proficient on a different platform , also known as “if they started even last year, f16s would be flying at least SEAD by now and not relying on a jank adaptor to launch HARM”), and decide that sending 31 Abrams tanks is good enough for a 1200km long frontline.

I had some optimism in March 2022, despite how bad everything looked at the time, it slowly diminished to what it is now by Spring of 2023 when it became clear that goal #1 for our “allies” is NOT to end this war, as quickly as possible, but to bleed russia out, death by a thousand cuts, all with our lives.

As will be every year after that. It’s all downhill from here folks.
