Definitely not a "Special Military Operation." No, definitely not one of them.

I wonder if they just forgot that it was "renamed."

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 1 points 58 minutes ago

Most probably didn't even noticed it changed in the first place. Not exactly the "hand on the stick" crowd over there

Department of Special Military Operations

The republicans and their preferred pronouns and names.

They realized it’s easier to justify war if they pretend it’s an ”act of defense”

It's frankly stunning just how little these people understand basic politics and the systems they are dismantling. They are profoundly stupid and too ignorant to realize just how intellectually ill-equipped they are. They have no understanding of why the structures they are tearing down were set up, and think that political structures purposely created to serve their interests are hampering them. They repeat age-old mistakes and think themselves geniuses for it. It's almost inconceivable that people this malignantly incurious reach positions of power. But they have, they do, and they will again.
