"Putin's invasion is an attack on Americans. Why? Because it will drive up prices of gas, it will destabilize the global social order that allows Americans to have cheap goods and services."
Jesus H. Christ.
I guess I'm going to reveal myself as one of the clueless elites, but I don't care. A free, sovereign nation has been unjustly invaded under false pretexts. Innocent people have been killed. Families with children are hunkering down in bunkers or seeking refuge in other countries, fleeing for their lives...
And America's first concern should be cheap gas and manufactured goods?!?
This just makes Americans sounds so soulless, uncaring, and shallow. (I am a naturalized American, btw.) "Who gives a sh*t about dead Ukrainians? I want my $3/gal gasoline, goddammit!"
One of the Founding Fathers, I forget who, reportedly said (I'm paraphrasing from memory): "Is there no virtue among us? If there be not, we are in a sorry state indeed."
Would that more of us had the spirit of President Zelensky and the brave Ukrainians who are risking everything to defend their homeland. Cheap gasoline, my a**.
