Imagine a bunch of people are tortured, removed from their homes, are killed… and you get paid? Are you cheering for it because you’re getting paid?

I can’t imagine wanting to be cheering on death and destruction.

This is what every military supplier does. What every soldier. What every person holding stock in the military supplier's company, every person shorting oil shares, etc.

Gambling on war and death is disgusting. Sadly, people profiting from those things is nothing new. That does not make it ok though.
