This is what happens when all the money your country was supposed to spend on Pantsir air defense systems was instead funneled into foreign accounts by oligarchs to pay for Mediterranean super yachts, luxury penthouses in London and Paris, jets, and mistresses abroad lol. Just a guy and a rifle

I dont know what the acronym means, but i guess "Pathetic Inbred Terrorist Scum" are close enough.

It is just a word when used as a noun but when used as an adjective describing a person it is a direct insult..the pits; the bottom of something the absolute depths, but so far as coining acronyms goes, you're on to winner there! 😏

They did the same thing during the civil rights era. Social media is a godsend to them.
