“My father built this station with his own hands. Now everything is destroyed” – Serhiy, an employee of one of the DTEK thermal power plants. For him, as well as for many energy workers, work at the TPP is a family affair

The future I hope for him is he can rebuild it and that some day is son or daughter will actually run it. This is what his father probably meant.
God bless them all.

I’d say not only family… My settlement was built for power plant, near 80% of residents worked there, including my mom and dad, grandparents (not me, I left this town when became a student).
RuZZia will pay!
Just like the scene in Dune part 2.
You know which scene, ehehehe.
When Ukrainians say “Thermal power plants” what exactly do they mean?
In my experience as native English speaker, we have coal powered plants, nuclear power plants, natural gas powered plants, Wind farms, solar power, hydroelectric power, etc.
It reminds me of the “mines” thing where APCs were getting hit by “mines” (Meaning bombs or artillery shells), which in English is a stationary device in the ground or sea, but it turns out that automated translators commonly mistranslated it.
Poor guy, it takes a lot to make Eastern European men tear up 😢.
1. Build a society where you attempt to build in, a dignity of work by linking people to jobs, from coal miners to power plant workers.
2. *This sometimes actually will work* because human nature is not offended by honest work, even if it is digging a ditch.
3. After actually building in some of that pride, then let everything fall apart. Dissolve country.
4. Wait 30 years, then re-invade those countries and make sure you destroy maybe the one good thing you did for them
5. ??
6. Multi-polar world!
