Most people are in disbelief over the surging gas prices. They expect it to go down. They trust the people in charge know what they’re doing and that it’ll be fixed. It’s complacency.

Complacency is a killer. There is no Deus Ex Machina. We don’t live in a Marvel movie.

There are two possibilities: 1) the people in charge are inept and they’ll make things worse. Or 2) the people in charge do know what they’re doing and it’s all going according to plan. They’re making things worse, on purpose, to usher in a great reset.

Either way, you lose.

Let’s be real. The people in charge could’ve done absolutely nothing with the pandemic and it would’ve simply resolved itself. And it has, in so many places that didn’t have the means to do anything.

All they did was make things worse by to fix things without knowing how.

Interesting arm patch on Ukraine’s national guardsman.

Remember, they’re the good guys. Don’t you dare say a bad word about them.

Military experts are having a lot of their analyses colored by how many likes and retweets they can get on social media. It's expertise driven by popular consensus. A shame, because they're not giving us a proper read on the situation in Ukraine/Russia.

They're wishcasting, playing into the Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero narrative of some Ghost of Kiev coming to save the day, defeating the Ancient Evil that's invaded Ukraine's borders. No one wants Ukraine to lose, but we have to be realistic about their options.

There is no Ghost of Tsushima to save Japan from the Mongols in real life.

The mythmaking surrounding Ukraine is well beyond the border of absurdity. Until the war happened all anyone would do was make fun of it for being poor and mock the women for being prostitutes, all thanks to government corruption, consumerism and western degradation.

Now everyone loves it. Hashtags, avatars and flags in bio. None of them will care in a few weeks. Onto the next trend. Hashtag BringBackOurGirls (they were never rescued), hashtag StopKony2012 (he’s relaxing in a villa somewhere), hashtag IAmMalala (Taliban back in power).

It’s all a bunch of lies and virtue signaling for people whose emotions flitter from trend to trend. Just something to partake in to fill their empty lives. Something to make them feel important, like they did something good by partaking in the zeitgeist.

The driver is alive (see the replies). It was an accident with a Ukrainian tank.

Different angle. Looks like what appears to be Ukrainian on Ukrainian friendly fire (check the uniforms and vehicles). Killed the driver of a military truck thinking he was Russian.
