"In Ukraine, not only all thermal power plants were destroyed, but also almost all hydroelectric power plants"
- President Zelensky at UN General Assembly
More from the Ukrainian President's statements:
Millions of people may be left without heat in winter.
Russian Federation is preparing attacks on our nuclear reactors to disconnect them from the energy supply system.

"We are one species.
We are the human race.
And ultimately the fate of one part of us will be the fate of another.
Whether disease or politics or myriads of other untold misfortunes, we all suffer the same fate.
Together."

@SearingTruth @Free_Press True. But throughout history there have been psychopaths who wish to dominate others at any cost. Some of them have powerful charisma and are able to motivate masses of people to do their bidding. They don't care about the human species, they care about personal pleasure and aggrandizement.
This is the problem that keeps cropping up. Most people want to just live their lives, raise their children, avoid problems. But there are the Genghis Khans, Alexander the Greats, Adolf Hitlers -- single, rare, special individuals, that have other plans and have the innate skills to make them happen, at the cost of millions of lives that they don't care about.
This is the problem.

And the scores of greedy venal millions they captivate and rely upon to gain office and cheer them on.
Them, too.
@f800gecko @SearingTruth @Free_Press Yes, well, always bear in mind how dumb the average person is, and bear in mind that half the population is even dumber than that. (thank you George Carlin, and many others, and the brutal truth of simple arithmetic. Hahaha.)
However, you do bring up an interesting thing that only applies in the United States today. It also applied in Germany in the 1920s and 30s. USians are brought up to think they are special. I'm old and remember this well from my childhood. "You're really smart. You can grow up to be President someday." BULLSHIT!
300 million to one chance of becoming president. Nobody in their right mind ought to say this to a child. But it was said to me more than once. It's insane to say this to a child. But perfectly normal in the USA.
Living here in West Virginia, I can say that a lot of people here feel they are entitled to be rich and powerful because they were born in the USA. To them, that's what it means to be born in the USA. And, of course, all of them are disappointed, disillusioned, and ANGRY. This anger is what powers MAGA. "I ought to be rich and powerful. I'm not, so it's someone's fault. Someone has messed with the "USA Game" and screwed me out of being rich. Being rich is my RIGHT as an American". This is what they believe. And I'm not surprised, given the crock of shit I was fed since childhood.
