And I’m being serious. I feel like there might be an argument there, I just don’t understand it. Can someone please “steelman” that argument for me?

    As a foreigner, if you voted for a genocider (there was two in this race), I do not think you are human.

    I feel like that’s such an idealistic way of viewing things. Hypothetically, if you had a choice between indirectly supporting genocide or throwing your entire life into chaos you’d rather ruin your own life? If you’re actually willing to ruin your own life for it you’re more passionate about this issue than 99% of the population. For example I don’t have an issue supporting Ukraine, I’ve donated to support packages going to Ukraine. But you won’t find me on the battlefield because there’s a limit to my support and that limit is at not throwing away my life. I guess that makes me inhuman because I could do more and I’m choosing to not to.

    If the table turns sometime, if I have to pick between genocide in the US and fascism here, well, I hope you have a place to hide lmao

    How hypocritical and vindictive. I won’t do what I consider humane because you deserve it.

      They don’t care about the outcomes of their actions, they care about their feelings as they make the actions. That’s it. Stop wasting your time arguing with children 🤷‍♂️

        I think they still need to be called out for their BS. The response wasn’t just for him, it was also for others who might read it and think that’s somehow an acceptable opinion to have.

      Also Ukraine is bullshit. Putin is a fascist bitch sponsored by the west, like Yeltsin is a fascist bitch supported by the west. The yanks wanted the USSR out so they sponsored fascist. The eastern block had nothing to eat for ten years. And now they are whining about election interferance?

      Laughable country, really. I know ukrainians. They call their own country north korea. You know, coz they cannot leave. You don’t give a shit about ukrainians. The war is solely about the nasdaq and subsidizing lockheed martin.

      If you think you can have a little genocide because of reality and need a wall of text full of mental gymnastic, you might just be a scum.
