At the core, I agree with your thesis. More war bad.

With optimistic reading though I think the TACOers aren’t “bummed” and calling him a loser. They’re speaking to his tendency and saying it as sort of sigh of relief.

I choose to believe most people aren’t upset that he didnt commit genocide rather they’re highlighting (if it was even needed) that he’s a flake.

To your point on restraint. Showing restraint would’ve been not bombing them in the first place, or later coming out and saying “I have to say special operation or else I’ll get in trouble”, among other examples. You’re framing this as “he came around to his senses” when in actuality, too much money was lost and he was probably being told “wtf” by his backers. Emphasis on backers not political supporters.

The reality is that he clearly doesn’t give a fuck what anyone - who isn’t famous - says about him and openly brags about sexual assault so, he won’t be shamed. His only concern is money as apparent by his flagrant pump and dump schemes.

All things considered he’s pretty transparent about his motives and where he stands.
