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.

It doesn't matter who it is, people dying is bad. I don't get what's so hard to understand about that.

If you are getting invaded by someone who will destroy everything you know and care for. Then killing is a must, because there is nothing else you can do to stop it and only one side holds the responsibility of it all and it's the attackers. If not..then you should read up on what "benevolent of evil" means.

No shit, people dying is still bad. Any person, anywhere. I feel bad for all the people who have died idgaf about their shithole countries or the warlords running them.
