    We didn’t “give” Zelenski $120 billion either. We saved ourselves the cost of disposing of outdated and unused munitions. It wasn’t costing us a dime, and shutting off that aid will cost us way more than just the cost of disposing those outdated munitions. It’s going to cost us people, because the dumb fucks that were screaming at Zelenski, for no fucking reason, are going to start a war.

      I would prefer that these funds be allocated towards initiatives such as free college education or investments in green energy, which would not only create jobs but also help safeguard our way of life. The current trajectory of war, driven by the replacement of outdated weapons with more advanced and deadly ones, seems counterproductive. It is concerning that the implications of this approach are not more widely acknowledged.
