There is also no shame in fighting to demilitarize a dictatorship or tear down a theocracy, though. Tolerance ends with the Intolerant, I only hope that the Zoomers understand that at least as well as Millennials.

Good people can't kill without shame.

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.today 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Good people who watch others be killed have just as much if not more shame.

They can think about that in great philosophical detail when it's them on the chopping block next.

Why wait? They could think about it right now, in all the places it's blatantly not true.

fight will end when everybody refuses to fight, not when people with their noble reasons find justifiable excuses to keep fighting

enemy is not detestable theocracies or sick dictators but thinking that there are enemies

we are one and we should act like one

Nah bro, fascists, and theocrats are definitely the fucking enemy.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 0 points 9 months ago

they are but they aren't

If only one side chooses fight, then fight will end as well. With rivers flowing with blood of the innocents.

there are no "sides", just a world full of people with fantasies of innocence and heroism :/

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.today 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There are people being persecuted right now for no good reason, and if you're not going to take their side then you're my enemy.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works -5 points 9 months ago

you are your enemy

[–] Bene7rddso@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There will always be someone who wants to fight
