That’s alright, so long as quality of life in later years improves.

They really want a viable third party that peddles red fascism, BSW style.

Come back to me when you are actually willing to throw your own comfort aside, when the cops are around. I do so every single time I see a fucking pig.

Oh shit you might be right, but does Assad have any genocides under his belt? I thought the worst he did was gassing his own citizens.

There is a very strong ethnic component to the ongoing civil war. There’s been a lot of ethnic cleansing and massacres supported by both sides - but obviously, as we’re discussing the Syrian government, Assad’s government being the important genocidal actor in this conversation. Iranian-backed Shi’ite militias have been… particularly vigorous in this.

We’re all fascist losers according to you.

Me: “We should not remain indifferent to genocide.”

You: “Clearly this means you hate veterans and think they’re fascist losers”

I’ll tell all my friends and family who’ve served posthaste.

I’d say it’s really telling that that’s your conclusion, but I don’t think you actually have any views, lol. If the simping for China wasn’t suggestion enough of a disingenuous position of ‘America-first nationalism’, this certainly is, lmao.

No, Americans first, middle, and last.

Except for the part where you’re constantly licking the boots of China on here. But yes, a very convincing American nationalist you make.

And I don’t believe you’ve ever been actually poor.

lmao.

And I know you’ve never been near the military or any kind of service relating to your morals, you’d realize the harm reduction option is keeping the US out of all conflicts for the rest of time.

“Harm reduction is when you allow genocide, and the more genocide you allow, the more harm is reduced”

10/10

Peace is not fascism no matter how much you war mongering conservatives want it to be.

“Opposing genocide is the real fascism”

Have you considered applying for a job with Israel’s PR department? You seem a perfect fit, lmao.

I’m happy you’re rich.

Literally living under the poverty line, but whatever makes you feel better about treating your own indifference to genocide as some kind of weird moral flex.

I’m happy that you hate your fellow Americans to the point you love to see them suffer so someone somehow be might not have a bad thing happen to them.

Ah yes, “America First” - just as pro-genocide as it was the first time the Nazis trotted it out!

Don’t know that they’re actually short the genocide, considering Iran’s backing of Syria, and the US definitely has an interest in a Middle East that is not in open war because of the effects of instability on international trade and the domestic political blowback from that, but otherwise I think we’re in agreement.

Stop begging the US for help. We’re tired we’re poor we have nothing left for you or anyone else.

Again, I don’t really know where you think I, an American, am begging the US, but uh, you have fun seeing pictures of murdered innocents and thinking “Oh boy, I hope my taxes are lowered by 2$ this year!” instead of “Jesus Christ, that’s an atrocity”, like any decent human being.

Now stop begging my country to ignore it’s own problems for yours.

Don’t really know what country I’m begging to care about the US’s problems, but you have fun with, uh, whatever weird pro-genocide position you got going on there.

I’m not fine with genocide, I simply have no more capacity to care about yours.

Yes, you don’t care about genocide, we all got it, you’ve been very clear.

Yes, now reread it in context. I do not want to send money to your shitty country to stop a genocide we had nothing to do with. I want to stop sending money to a country that is committing genocide with said money so I am no longer responsible for aiding said genocide.

Yes, I got that you’re fine with genocide and only care about sending money, you already made that perfectly clear. You don’t have to repeat yourself.

America has problems with Iran because they won’t do what the US tells them to, not because there’s any risk of Iran starting a war of any kind.

There is absolutely a major risk of Iran starting wars of several kinds. The difference between Russia and Iran is that the Russian government wishes to see the US cratered to give it and its allies free reign to do whatever horrific shite they please. They actively desire a diminished US on the world stage and domestically, both on ideological and strategic grounds.

Iran, on the other hand, just wants to play its shithead proxy war games in the Middle East against the Saudis and Israel. If the US had no interest in backing those two, Iran would be indifferent to the US except insofar as we can be used as a boogeyman to tamper down internal dissent (a technique that has become less effective in recent generations).

Regardless of whether we have any legitimate business in backing Israel or the Saudis, or in trying to prevent destabilization of the Middle East, Iran very much would be picking fights absent the US, just as it is with the US present in the region. The Islamic Republic is not some isolationist or benevolent state. They’re as bad as the Saudis (who are constantly picking proxy war fights across the Middle East).

God, Wild Arms was so good. I miss 1+2. 3 to a lesser degree.

My money was s going to commit genocide, I do not want to commit or aide in commiting genocide, therefore in your mind, it’s about the money in that case.

It’s a simple concept, take care of your citizens before sending off your children and money to some random country.

This you?

You’re not very good at pretending to be a Very Concerned Citizen™

I do care about Palestinian genocide as we are funding that and id like that to stop.

It’s a simple concept, take care of your citizens before sending off your children and money to some random country.

So the only reason you care about the Palestinian genocide is money? Well, I have good news for you, then, as foreign aid, even Israeli foreign aid, is an incredibly small part of the US national budget. You can rest easy in that there’s one more genocide available for you to play apologist for with a ‘clean’ conscience!

I don’t care, even a little about myanmars genocide. Or the genocide in sudan. Or whatever Russia is doing or whatever gobbledyfuck the third, the warlord of east genovia is doing to puppies and children.

Thanks for admitting to being indifferent to genocide. Keep cheering on Palestinian genocide as well, I’m sure you don’t care about that either. That’s about the level of moral fiber I expected from someone who denies the Ukrainian and Uyghur genocides.

A generic war isn’t genocide,

Wow, generic wars have hundreds of thousands, by Russia’s own admission, children being ethnically cleansed from a region and deported to the invading country to shore up their own flagging demographics? Generic wars have kill lists of political figures, including LGBT advocates, distributed to the invader’s forces? Generic wars have civilians with their hands tied and shot in the back of the head en masse in occupied territories?

Let me guess - you’re an Uyghur Genocide denier too, right?

Yeah it sucks Ukraine is getting invaded again it did that a thousand times before I was born it’ll do that a thousand more times at least after I die.

Ah, yes, nichevo.

Does Iran have functional nuclear bombs yet?

Not for lack of capacity. Not really sure why you think Israel intermittently dickwaving with Iran is preventing them from pursuing nuclear weapons, but they’ve spent the past 20 years or so continually increasing their capacity to the point of “We can make nuclear weapons in a very short amount of time”, so apparently the proxy war ‘working just fine’ has very little to do with restricting Iran’s access to nuclear weaponry. Or else the ‘proxy war’ is a total failure. Your call.

Yeah, you. Why does Russia want trump in office? To leave them the fuck alone. Why does Russia openly want a weaker US? The same reason 140+ countries want a weaker US, so they get left the fuck alone.

Fucking lol

I guess fascist propaganda doesn’t even need to try to be vaguely believable anymore. But hey, anything to cheerlead for genocide in Ukraine, right?
