  • I do appreciate your perspective…

    I went to an American school with a good system in elementary, even had a “gifted program” for smarter kids… and then a shitty one when we moved. Each state is like its own country in a lot of ways.
    But well for one, European countries are bound to be more upset when they themselves are attacked just because it’s themselves getting attacked…
    For two, by that time imperialism was no longer seen as an okay thing to do… A lot of countries kept their colonies but they weren’t invading new countries or outright enslaving people anymore.
    For three, the Nazis were industrially exterminating an entire race out of pure spite. The only other comparible level of extermination would be America (sorry btw… At least im enough Native American that I get to hate myself… Plus I’m part Pawnee… A tribe that helped the US military hunt other tribes out of revenge)[Lakotas basically genocided the Pawnee right before white people showed up]
    But even that was more about not being able to fight them… Not just killing them to kill them…

    At least we can bask in our white guilt together.
    Spain sure has a terrible history in the Americas.





  • Collateral damage isn’t terrorism.
    They’re blowing up a death star ffs, not a city bus.
    They main difference is that terrorists will target only civilians as a way to get a message across… A rebel will target the military and oppressive forces, and regret that civilians were killed on accident.





  • Imagine if Luke Skywalker planted bombs on civilian transport ships…
    When they blow up and kill thousands of innocent men, women and children… Just random people… Their blood sprayed all over the place…
    I bet Star Wars fans would be totally into that because it’s completely identical to a terrorist group blowing up a passenger airplane.
    They’re such hypocrites!

  • is your goal to stop the genocide or free speech absolutism?
    i like both but im will to tailor my messages to have a better impact.
    at this point if you go out with a sign that says “down with zionists!” a lot of people will not listen past that point.
    words like “unalived” has help people bypass ai sentiment analysis and get important messages out there.
    everyone should move to federated platforms with free-er speech, but that’s not how you can actually reach most people.

    tl;dr is the message less important than the verbiage?
