Why even call it a bombing. It was an oopsie. There you go. I already feel better.

In fact, the Russians call it "clapping". It's all Orwellian.

yeah, that's not gonna work. It's not like he's forcing everyone to go and kill civilians. People are doing it themselves. I mean they're signing contracts by their own. Not all, but most

If I remember correctly troll farms would call it Bavovna, or translated from Ukrainian "Cotton".

I can't BELIEVE someone would get that rattled by a little bombing! It was just like they tripped, fell on the ground and said "ouchie!"
