I’ve wondered how people ran happily into their doom in WW1/2, and thought nowadays with all the information readily available they’d not fight and die for some grand illusion of some asshole wearing a crown or whatever Putin wears. But I was wrong. I don’t understand how they’re not on his ass, noose ready. Instead they cheer for him. Of course not all Russians, but enough to let him keep destroying their own future.
That’s really hard for me to grasp. If my government would start some shit like that we’d collectively laugh and replace them.
I’m not even in a rural setting and the only way to get my dogs to the vet is via car. Getting a taxi to drive there is difficult when one of your dogs starts vomiting after the second turn.
That and getting to by family in a rural setting. 2 hours by car vs up to 8 by train. With two dogs. That won’t happen 😐
Besides that I don’t really need a car.
