@LycanCooks You actually can because all of those things could have still happened under a socialist or communist society, because surprise surprise they also want resources. It's not as if the USSR didn't drain away an entire fucking sea and deprive surrounding states of water or anything
@MrBellamySan@KyleKulinski Killing civilians as collateral damage and purposely targeting civilians are very critically _not_ the same thing.
Terrorism is seeking to achieve maximum civilian death. The U.S does not operate that way. (at least until this administration)
@stacycay@CameronCorduroy Terrorists target civilians to cause mass causalities and sow chaos.
You can fairly criticize American military campaigns. Calling them terrorists is so stupid it should disqualify you from having an opinion or viewed as purposeful degradation of language to cover for extremism
@KyleKulinski It's obviously not true.
Terrorists seek out civilian targets to sow terror and discord. The U.S for all it's foolish wars and fuck ups does not do this as a matter of policy.
You are either purposely degrading language to cover for extremism or you're stupid.
@LycanCooks I cant believe he took a stance on the easiest most black and white conflict in the last 30 years and not the one the most notoriously complicated one going on for the last 70. That's crazy.
@stacycay@abbymachines When people say things like this, my brain automatically assumes they didn't vote, and are simultaneously retroactively justifying not voting, while also finding a reason not to vote in the future.
Any reason to avoid doing the thing that makes a difference. Better keep tweeting
@stacycay It feels like certain programs are initially used as short hand for an idea, like universal healthcare, but eventually people forget the idea and just end up defending the specific program or expansion of it.
@JJ_McCullough Its crazy how everything always happens because of everyones personal pet issues.
Tell me how the baseball that broke your window was because we need to defund the cbc.
