Too little too late
Since anything you say about all the members of the empty set is vacuously true, it’s going great.
Death, death to the IDF.
Welcome to Fascist America (which always has been a racist, classist shithole that served as an inspiration for fascists).
Brought to you by conservative voters billionaires.
Maybe next time don’t stay home or vote 3rd party work within your communities, build alternative prefigurative systems in the here and now, and learn how to defend yourself, the people you love, and the community from the monsters who control everything.
Please elaborate what in my text gave you such an impression.
Previous reply:
Are we supposed to be very very horrified that 9 innocent people died in a plane crash?
Yes oh my God some of them were children
So, of course at least 5 %, possibly almost 10 % of Russian civilians are innocent, but out of the 44 adults that died, that is statistically about 2 to 4 people in the whole plane, plus the five children.
Of course the statistically average Russian isn’t completely blameless for supporting the Russia-Ukraine war, but that doesn’t mean they deserve to die in a plane crash!
Like the entire argument you’re making and the fact that you’re making it to argue against what I previously is what gave me the impression that your empathy is conditioned on where someone comes from.
That’s a lot of words to admit that your empathy for others is conditioned on where they come from.
Yeah and every time, nationalist turbo-libs like you will be there to voice your utter apathy for the deaths of innocent civilians because they are flying over land controlled by monsters with a different flag than the monsters who control your country, a flag whose subjects your country has told you to hate.
Nationalism is a fucking mind virus.
WTF are you on about?!? These are civilians! There were children on board!
As someone else pointed out, I acknowledge that the original article is second-hand information about a private call, so it really doesn’t matter to be precise in that exact scenario. So strictly speaking, I jumped the gun.
However… since then, Pope Leo has come out with a public statement:
My critique now applies. He calls it a “war” and a “conflict” here, and a “slaughter” in the private phone call. None of these are sufficient or even necessary (PDF warning) for genocide to occur (although they most certainly are occuring!). His refusal to use the word “genocide” is deliberate. If he had even a quarter of a spine, he’d be calling it a genocide. He’s literally the literal Pope! He has the power to do this!
This was second hand from an internal call, not an official statement. Even in an internal call he used the more graphic word “slaughter” rather than “violence” or “killing”.
Good catch. I agree with you here.
This is action, which you have to admit is far beyond the bare minimum of flapping lips.
Not for a man as powerful as the head of the Catholic Church. He could do more.
I disagree with organized religion as a whole but I am not going to bad mouth a group that was housing 600+ people in their church, including elderly, disabled, and children.
Yeah I really meant to yell at Leo in particular because IMO he’s kind of a moderate (compared to Francis). Good point.
Pope calls his Cardinal in Jerusalem, not to tell him to stop his aid deliveries out of a concern for safety but to convey that they need to work harder to “stop the slaughter”. Again, that’s more than the “bare minimum”.
Again I think that for such a powerful man, this is the bare minimum. For example, go to the church himself instead of sending his people.
Yeah I did. No mention of “genocide” in the article or its sources, just a “slaughter”.

I like how he didn’t even do the bare minimum
No he’s not. He’s doing what the United States does exactly as it was designed.
The United States always has been an exclusionary, racist, classist, sexist, and LGBTQ-phobic settler-colonial project. The principles patriots claim to be the governing values of the United States are in opposition to the reality of the project.
If patriots want to actually create a society based on their stated values, then the United States needs to be dismantled as a prerequisite. Put simply, the real values of the United States are the maintenance of capitalism and white supremacy. If your values are even slightly in opposition to that, then the United States will crush you once it begins to notice your presence.
But in order for patriots to actually live their stated values without contradictions, patriots need to throw off the chains of their own patriotism…which lays bare the fact that so many remaining patriots actually do secretly like the openly oppressive parts of the system that they would otherwise claim to hate in polite company.
Burn America to the fucking ground
Fucking monsters.
69 nice
No I did not read what it was 69 of
Yeah. They definitely are biased towards the cops, probably because that’s where they get most of their information from when writing the scripts.
I watch them anyways, but with a healthy dose of skepticism. I really wish there was an explicitly anti-cop true crime channel.
Ironically I usually end up leaving those videos still irritated at police for failing to do even the most basic detective work. But I also used to watch COPS as a kid because even back then I was like “what the fuck are these pigs doing, what a bunch of monsters” but then I later found out that it was supposed to make cops look good? Like really?!? 😆
Do you consider answering “synthesizer” cheating?
Yeah not like those (at least) four other non-police civilians mattered or had families or dreams. Good job NY Post for demonstrating that the media considers a cop more of a person than the rest of us 🙄
