I hope she at least died immediately, that sounds like a terrible way to go.
That's a reaper drone. The bottom of the prop is about 4 or 5 feet off the ground. I'm confident it was quick, morbid as that sounds.
She was working on reaper drones. I hope she died a painful slow death.
Don't cut yourself with that edge
Grow up.
Warfare equipment is required to defend, as well as attack. Let's see who you're calling evil when a would-be attacking nation waltzes in and rapes your family while you're tied up in the corner, and then murders you like the Russians were doing to the Ukrainians.
That woman was doing the hard work that you were unable to, because you're too much of a bitch to accept reality.
Lemmy: Communism is when no military!
"grow up" followed by a rape fantasy to justify simping for the US military
You should maybe read up a little on this concept called "war" and what happens to civilians in those situations. It ain't pretty and it's the reason why countries have militaries. Yeah, I'd love to dump the military too, like everyone, but then second you do, your loved one would -indeed- likely be raped by invading enemies.
Your context makes no sense. Who is having a rape fantasy?
'muricans don't have a brain, holy shit. If you want to suck military dick so much, at least set up an onlyfans so your capitalist hellhole doesn't fuck you quite as hard.
What are you even talking about? I don't even care about the military--I'm just telling you that if you don't have a weapon, the next guy who does is going to come in and make you regret it.
I didnt make the rules--im just telling you how it is. Stop being a dumbass.
That's what these ruzzia bots are trying to do. They want as much of the world as possible weak and undefended so they can rape it like Ukraine. Legit inhuman savages.
Where is your evidence of those "rules"?
Literally all of history.
Funny, you seem unable to point to evidence. Or do you think, when asked about evidence of an exoplanet existing, a physicist will say "well, look at all of physics"?
Oh look it's the same "grow up" logic from the Genocide defenders.
I see those reaper drones helping israel commit Genocide by mapping Gaza and bombing Yemen. They're not doing much to defend Ukraine.
Are you calling me a genocide defender? Explain.
Why are you even suggesting that I am a genocide defendee we when the very example I gave was to help prevent a genocide in Ukraine? Lol.
Ah, it's probably because you don't actually have a winning argument, and you're just grasping at straws to defend your fantasy-hopes-and-dreams world views.
You didn't give one you dreamt one up.
Comments like these make me want as many drones in Gaza as possible.
Evil.
Yes this woman was evil.
If you have a mirror, and you do, look no further to find that.
Lemmy: ACAB EAT THE RICH
Also Lemmy: why would someone say something negative about this woman working for the military to directly help them commit massive war crimes?
Yes, lemmy is a monolith of opinions.
If you don't think capitalism and modern 'murican police are a problem, that only makes you more scum, not @Linkerbaan's argument worse.
You seem to have missed my point.
This platform is full of people with differing opinions. Saying things like "Oh wow, just yesterday lemmy said this and now it's this!" is just stupid and doesn't make any sense.
No. I'd rather the warmongers who deploy them take her place. Karma should hit the top of the hierarchy not the bottom.
