I mean, cmon. Every country can become like this, no people are special. Hating people for not instantly becoming martyrs by committing terrorism in their own country is a bit dumb.

We have to nudge them a bit, fund resistances, saboteurs, maybe an outside intervention. Civilians are just civilians.

This is how we get countries cut off from the world, who become eternal reprobates, and we never have good relations with them again.

    Good point.

    However, posting “I’m sorry” has a tendency to be the outlet needed to perpetuate inaction. It’s a “pressure relief valve” that can stifle action.

    …he says as he does the exact same thing, day after day, knowingly 😒🤦‍♂️

    amen. the issue is people really are delusional enough to think they wouldn't be the jackbooted thugs if they weren't in power. They would.

    Everyone is VERY eager for others to commit violence for them or against their enemies. But not so eager to commit violence themselves or be victims of it.
