Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I just finished reading two posts here, one about Finland coordinating their invasion of Russia with Germany, and the other about “Blowtorch Bob” D’Aubuisson (which for some reason brought to mind "Bandar Bush" and MBS). I started thinking about all the money spent on perpetual war, slavery, genocide, to get expensive natural resources very inexpensively, and sell back to the people resources needed to sustain life at very expensive rates mostly unaffordable to them. Surely it would be less destructive to all life, the planet, and precious money to just...be equitable. It seems like bloodlust and may be the real driver, after all. Is this a delusional thought?
