Don't mind me. I'm just being salty because a year of genocide twinned with resistance to said genocide has done pretty much nothing.
Not even ds9 can comfort me here.
“It’s one of the most deliberate cruelties inflicted on a ppl that I can remember that my own gov’t has supported. Even in Vietnam, they didn’t quite admit they were just slaughtering the innocent”

Never occured to me that comparing bajoran resistance to Palestinian resistance would result in people condemning bajorans and Kira. At this time, showing compassion for a fictional character is as hard as showing compassion for young boys burned alive while on an iv in hospital
In Delta Flyers pod @ShimermanArmin makes the distinction that Kira is not a rebel but a terrorist.
Maybe she's both and neither. But what is lacking is the compassion around what living under conditions of genocide means for a child. Did she really have a choice?
Nelson Mandela was called a terrorist, and was on USA terror watch list, Lumumba, Sankara were all called terrorists. Every African who defended African interests is called a terrorist.
