    I believe the campaign featuring the children and the punk bondage teddy bears been inspired by Demna’s experience of war and being a child in war. That’s one part of the whole thing that a lot of people overlooked and how innocence can be easily corrupted through the viciousness of war.

    You are a fool, respectfully. The depth you're looking for is elsewhere. Demna's Balenciaga is subverting our youth to be nihilistic, emotionless, and communitarian consumers. You literally explained their evil by mentioning Albert Camus, a PDF file, and his 'indifferent, chaotic, meaningless' worldview. Camu doesn't promote despair? DUH... if you despair then you can't get busy destroying society. You must have the focused goal of destruction. NO. Our world, particularly the West, was built upon Discipline, Order, Meaning, and God. That's why you have a toilet to sit on, a phone to call your loved ones, and a home with running water and heating in it. Balenciaga's goal is to subvert this and usher in an era of hyper-individualism and Luciferianism (worship of the self, of tech, of globalisation). Are they intelligent? YES. Are they evil? YES. Wake up bro..

This conflict was initiated by Russia’s invasion, despite their claims that it was caused by internal issues within Georgia.
