This is the problem with decisions made by blood thirst, ignorance, emotional temper tantrums over reasoned strategy and moral behavior. For example, based on your inaccurate understanding of history or politics you adopt the easily debunked notion “Israel had the right to defend itself, that its position surrounded by mortal enemies required toughness.” In reality the surrounding states have repeatedly proposed peace and Israel continued to reject it for expansionist, aggressive actions and aims including an ongoing war against Palestine which it exploits the lack of public understanding of to produce crocodile tears and accuse the other side of aggression when they try to defend themselves from their onslaught. This misunderstanding lead to you previously calling for israel to commit war crimes and launch a war on Iran which you admitted was you getting caught up in emotions and demanding blood be spilled, a common result of a lack of background knowledge or mature critical thinking capacity. The result was a disaster as Israel sees collapsing approval and a radicalized Iran, and possible major damage to the world economy which makes both the above and many issues worse. All were mapped out and predicted by most serious analysts long before. It was a decision based on ignorance, supported by people with an inferiority complex and sadistic blood thirst to compensate for it by vicariously living through war crimes, without any hint of wisdom or principles, and naturally this lead to long term needless damage. No one can predict the future, but for a positive future effort needs to be made to listen to cooler heads with a moral backbone, not elevate ignorant people with no foresight or capacity to learn.

No. After 9/11 there was still backlash and outrage internally in America when news of war crimes appeared and politicians had to frame their actions as at least in part helping the civilian population. It is more akin to long term dehumanization of a oppressed population built up over decades due to ideology rooted in victimhood and superiority.

This is false, Israeli society including the left and center defended and excused the crimes and continue to in most regards. Polls find the overwhelming majority support or do not care about the damage towards civilians resulting from the IDF.

Even if god snapped his fingers and made us into a literal matriarchy where every person in power was a woman, everything would be the exact same except maybe slightly more left leaning. The women in power now aren’t meaningfully different than the men.

The guy in the MAGA discovers racism video is not MAGA. He was a famous never trump republican.

How do you know it was out of selfishness and power hunger and not his interpretation of the purist way to actualize his understanding of Marxism, however wrong that was. Osama Bin Laden is different because he was a hypocrite in many ways. But a jihadist extremist could be doing it from a selfless egoless perspective if they genuinely think they’re following the doctrine for its own sake.

Hasan is a Champagne socialist. He just adopts it as an aesthetic. He does this with many things. He used to mock people who said the left should reach out to young men, but post 2024 he was bringing it up like it was a genius insight he came up with, because it was in vogue.
