Our pals in the media seem to really and truly be ‘entertained’ by Russia invading Ukraine. Oh no, not the actual invasion, but all of the posts we’re seeing on social media about Ukrainian fighters …

It’s as if they’re watching a movie and not a terrifying invasion resulting in tremendous loss of life for both countries. But hey, Russell Crowe! BAZINGA!

Why do conservatives glorify war?

HA HA HA HA
Mean ol’ conservatives, already casting the actors for the Russia/Ukraine war.
"Boy, this war that could go on for weeks/months/years will make for a great 1-4 hour movie for me to waste my life watching. Why couldn't Afghanistan be this interesting to me?"
