      They don’t even know about it. I was talking with a friend about Ukraine over the weekend and they got all chest thumpy about Ukraine and I said “what Russia is doing in Ukraine is no worse than what the saudis are doing in Yemen” and they got this completely blank stare and said “yeah I don’t know anything about that”

        What Saudis are doing in Yemen is many magnitudes worse

        Siri, pull up the respective civilian death tolls for each conflict (Yemen: 377,000 per the UN, Ukraine: 3,780 per the UN)
