| US-owned datacenters in the middle east were already blown up with the drone family that Russia has been mass-procuring from Iran |

| One goal is probably to show average Russians that the war is not just something which happens somewhere else in the world - a side-note on the news, no need to bother about. The question why people who do not agree with the government should also pay the price for a war started by their government/country is not specific to this war. |

| ▲ | miroljub a day ago | parent [-] | | So you want to show it to Russians but not Americans? Why? USA is the nation responsible for most destruction post WW2 around the world, Russia is not even close. | | |
| ▲ | wredcoll a day ago | parent [-] | | If you actually wanted to "raise awareness" about American actions, lying this ridiculously is not the way to do it. | | |
| ▲ | miroljub an hour ago | parent [-] | | Vietnam and Iraq beg to disagree. Or the millions of deaths caused by American actions there don't count, since they were not killed by Russia? |

| You mean exactly like Iran did? |

| ▲ | miroljub a day ago | parent [-] | | Iran destroyed data centres in the USA? I missed that in news. Can you point to the source? | | |

| The best the world can do is move away from US treasuries (redirecting that capital investment domestically) and importing from the US, causing long term economic decline. This applies the pain broadly to the US electorate who voted for this. |

| You make it seem as if they are not active targets for many. Its just really, really hard to attack a datacenter in the US with a ballistic missile. Israel gets hit pretty regularly as well. The beautiful thing about US war is that it never gets back home. The moment it starts, the populance starts pulling back support. But if you are shooting random people in the desert and middletown nowhere's McDonald's are functioning, its all gravy. |

| ▲ | microtonal a day ago | parent [-] | | The beautiful thing about US war is that it never gets back home. Have you checked the diesel prices? | | |
| ▲ | jitix a day ago | parent | next [-] | | Paying a few extra bucks to fuel your wasteful binge consumption is very different than literal death and destruction. Americans are truly obnoxious and out of touch from reality. | | |
| ▲ | microtonal a day ago | parent [-] | | Ehm. I'm not an American, nor live in the US and I don't use diesel (we have an EV and only charge with green electricity). I was reacting to: The beautiful thing about US war is that it never gets back home. Which I contest, because it resulted in high diesel prices, which may just be the push for the republicans to lose the midterms. If so, Trump becomes a lame duck, which changes course quite a bit from the republicans winning the midterms. So the war does get back home in some way. | | |
| ▲ | jitix a day ago | parent | next [-] | | Thanks for clarifying but it was in bad taste. | |
| ▲ | miroljub a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | HN is no place for trolling. Are you seriously compare war, dead people and some fucking elections and diesel prices? |
|
| |
| ▲ | altmanaltman a day ago | parent | prev [-] | | High diesel prices are not equivalent to getting your cities bombed every day. Imagine going to work but having to divert because some country bombed the highway. That is the reality for countries usually at war with the US, but not for the US, where you have the liberty to go like, "Hey, this war is kind of bad" after watching diesel prices, not after watching Uncle Jamal's head get blown off. |
