    Why the hell would you let your kid dress up as a soldier with a toy gun in a warzone? Isn't that blurring the lines between civilians and soldiers? Do they want their children to look like military targets?

      Do they want their children to look like military targets?

      Considering the big, public announcements about handing out weapons to anyone who wanted them without even bothering to organize a militia with uniforms or armbands or anything, maybe the answer is yes?

    Just to be clear, in the source vid it's just some kids playing army man in a village that is rebuilding after the Russians left. Not actual child soldiers.

    I wonder when people will make the connection between children fighting back in Ukraine and the same happening in Afghanistan.

    Look, I get it, I by "no circumstances have to hand it to 'em", but fuck that, I gotta hand it to 'em.

    Somehow, they found a war that liberals like and manufactured the hell out of that consent. Even CHUDs, who are supposed to be the good, blind little sheeple who trust any word their precious MIC tells them is calling shenanigans on this.
