An exit interview: Benjamin Velcro
I am quite good with languages, one could describe my Russian as a solid B1 (someone said B2 before but that was an ego stroke lol) I would rather understand the language of my enemy than Ukrainian. My convictions against the putin regime were largely solidified when I was part of a task force related to Georgia just prior to their invasion with the US Army. In 2014, maiden inspired me.

Interesting how this “Benjamin Velcro” seems to be drawn to US-sponsored color revolutions. 👇
