    I don’t know why it’s so hard for certain people to understand that sometimes (actual most of the time), all sides are the bad guys.

        Sounds like those people need to pick a side or risk getting gunned down or bombed.

      Because some people need there to be someone they can root for, especially if the other side is aligned with other people they don’t like.

      They are both bad, but one of them trades with the rest of the world. That’s why most governments lean towards them.

        ‘Sometimes’ and even ‘most of the time’ isn’t ‘all the time’.

        WW2 is an exceptionally rare event in which one side is so fucking awful that the support of the opposition is mandatory to not be a vile piece of shit.

            No. The Israelis committing genocide is the extremely common event in which one side is awful enough that supporting them in unconscionable. It doesn’t make their equally genocide-eager but less genocide-capable foes morally necessary to support.

              You are going to be in for a real surprise if you learn the things the ANC did to the Apartheid. And the Native Americans did to their colonizers when raising villages. And all these other resistance movements that we now describe as “heroic”.

              October 7 sure as hell wasn’t the cleanest attack ever, but it sure was a lot less genocidal than almost every resistance group that has ever done these kinds of things.

                  These people can barely hide their own bloodlust while scolding others for daring to even suggest that there is nuance or complexity here. It’s bold even for tankie brain rot.

                  Yeah unlike what you seem to believe these resistances against Apartheid and Genocide werent magical fairy tales of the good guys and the bad guys.

                  Dresden bombing by the way. Poor Germans had to self defense against the genocidal allies according to you?

                  I’m still waiting on that planned attack video from Hamas that you promised.
