      They fuck up what you’re aiming at. In this case, mostly children.

      Sorry if that was unclear.

        Except that’s literally not how the damage profile of such a round functions. Limbs disappear - soldiers die. Children would be slaughtered. This clearly did not happen.

            I know, in general, how sniper rifles work, and it is explicitly mentioned in the article it was sniper fire.

              You think a .338 round can make “limbs disappear”, buddy. Everything you learned about sniper rifles came from Call of Duty.

                Idk if you’ve ever seen a child but yes a bullet of any sort will really fuck them up, and yes a rifle shot will blow a child’s arm off.

                Fun fact: i’ve literally never played Call of Duty outside of the first one, set in WW2

                  So now the snipers are aiming at the children again? Pick a narrative and stick to it, buddy, I’m getting whiplash here

                    No, again, because the children are all alive.

                    Thinking isn’t hard, man. All you have to do is turn off your antisemitism for 2 seconds. You can turn it right back on afterward, even

                    Spend less energy trying to be quippy and more energy trying to be intelligent. Quippy doesn’t work if what you’re saying is fuckin stupid.
