The biggest concern for me isn’t Israel’s escalation (they will escalate no matter what) but the US’s reaction. No way they don’t do something no? Either way, this has made my year, I’m glad to see Israelis feel in an inch of what they have given to others

there’s going to be more?? Has Israel ever been hit like this before?

may they all strike true

I’m so sorry. I understand the feeling. I don’t know anything that helps, the only thing that works for me is full repression. Like an on/off switch, I break down when I can and tell myself it’s not happening when I can’t.

It’s evil and hypocritical but I don’t know what else we can do. If there’s any chance of victory for any of us, there will always be an untold amount of death. I think in a way we have to come to terms with that.

Your ignorance is astounding, I wish my heart and head could be as empty as yours 👏

I’ve been here a long time and don’t want to say anything to you that gets me banned but you aren’t a comrade without empathy.

Edit: they’ve been banned, go fuck yourself you tragedy tourist

it’s the sign of someone who has no real connection to the struggle whatsoever, they don’t care about the human factor at all, this is just them trying to prove a point that literally holds no weight or value to anyone but themselves

they are more concerned with labeling things as losses, this

should be treated as such without being told you can’t call it what it is

is more important to them than anything else, they ignore anyone bringing up the real issue, fuck off, these issues are more than just a scoreboard. this is a matter of human lives, grow a spine and some empathy

why should I say anything? what I think they should or shouldn’t do means nothing, read my responses, I’m not telling you to show unbreakable faith in iran, hexbollah, or hamas, or to not believe that we are witnessing a loss.

I called you out leaving such a ridiculous message during this immense tragedy. @cleveroleg left this message and he is right.

Whether your analysis is correct or not, maybe not the best time to crow about how right you were and start calling people out, eh?

I don’t think your analysis is correct but when you use a moment like this, to harp on about that? It’s stupid, it’s asinine, it’s miserable especially when we have people here who have family in lebanon. I’m going to have to go to prayer and see people weeping for their lost families, friends, their country. Get a grip comrade and don’t fucking worry about having ‘a point’.

I truly think it can with the backing of the usa, it doesn’t need to sustain itself. It has an eternal IV drip because of the usa, unless it’s severed I don’t think it can outright die before taking as many people with them as possible

pooh-poohing my concerns about the axis of resistance a week ago

Am I still just a ‘doomer’ or did I have a point?

What are you pointing out? people are dying? we are seeing evil at work, there is no point you are making, other than wanting to be vindicated. This is what you have to say, to offer, in times like this?

how are you feeling now that Nasrallah and the rest of the entire Hezbollah leadership has been wiped out?

terrible, the world is ending and I can only hope god saves them, they are stronger than you in every capacity. Your criticism means nothing because it critiques nothing. Saying, oh the axis should go all in, is not insightful. Being self-righteous about something so crude looks badly on you comrade

exactly

stfu why the fuck are you using all of this as a fucking gotcha? really all of this and you type a ‘i told you so’?! go fuck yourself

We should find a way to bring back gladitorial combat but non-lethal ofc. The coliseum could be flooded for naval combat! That’s so sick. There’s gotta be a way to bring this back T_T.

? Why are you pointlessly being an asshole?

Imagine hearing someone talk like this in irl…blindly screeching tankie as if anyone gives af

I’m honestly still in shock that we haven’t seen Hezbollah engage with Israeli. This is the weakest it’s ever been, how is this not the time to strike?

100% true, they literally get subjugated to goodness, which is literally what they did to the Krogan.

I’ve been replaying Mass Effect and there’s literally a side quest where a bunch of biotic “terrorists” have taken a chairman from the Alliance hostage. Specifically because he voted against reparations for L2 biotics, being an L2 biotic requires implants which cause insanity, mental disability, and crippling pain. So Shepherd is literally sent in as an agent of capital to kill them, and you don’t have anyway to express any sympathy to the biotics. The paragon path is literally just telling the biotic leader that you won’t kill him if he lets the chairman go, and whooooa as soon as you convince the leader to stand down, the chairman has a change of heart. This stood out to me cause it’s just a small side quest, but the series both sides genocide and has you actually commit genocide in 2. The Batarians, despite the series trying their best to paint an entire species as xenophobic slaver/terrorists, are victim to multiple war crimes committed by the player character. The game has created a situation where there are ‘good’ aliens (the council races) and ‘bad’ aliens (batarians/vorcha/krogan) and the lives of the ‘bad’ aliens matter significantly less than the good aliens. You get hordes of vorcha and batarians to kill, and dialogue and story reinforces the fact that it’s okay. There might as well be calipers in the game. It’s honestly kind of fucked to play through.

Oh how come?
