Especially drones. I'm so tired of seeing some helpless Ukrainian or Russian soul spend his last moments on earth looking at a faceless machine that's being controlled remotely with a god damn playstation controller. Even worse was those aid workers last year who were chased miles, under constant drone attacks, only to perish under something that was likely being ordered by poorly trained AI software.

I think you are focusing on the wrong part. A lot of Ukrainians would have died instead if they did not use the drones as weapons and robo dogs for reconnaissance. It really helps leviate some of the dread of going into not secure zones. The Russians could stay home if they didn't like the killing of innocents so much.

I hope Putin gets a missile up his arse but that's just naive to think Russian cannon fodder have a choice

In the USA, give to average "white trash" the option to sign a deal where US Guv'ment pays 500,000 United Shteaks Dollars and watch what happened.

Putin invented the recycling method for people who can't live like in old times, like their parents but cannot find the way how to live now in nowadays. Recycling them as the biofuel of war machine.
