“You wanna see torture, I’ll show you torture!”

-Every army reservist vet on twitter who’s pissed they were never deployed to Iraq to do water boarding.

Greta's struggle is going to be looked on so fucking kindly by history. Neurodivergent little girl hated by a huge chunk of the world and yet she carries on fighting, even harder and more radical than before. Yeah ok she's obviously more of a young woman now than the little girl she was before but that doesn't change the fact that she absolutely was when she started it all.

Within the next 10 years she's going to say she's a communist. She already very clearly opposes capitalism and uses marxist language to describe its problems. It's just a matter of time for her to gain confidence to use the word and say it with pride.

Liberals will try to deradicalise and canonise her posthumously.

The Snopes article is basically We have no idea what's going on. Here are some social media links, make your own conclusions. Which seems like the opposite of fact checking.

I think it's fairly likely that the abuse amounts to torture but Greta says that people should rather talk and worry about the Palestinians and she is right.

Intentional mistreatment and abuse for the purpose of harm is torture

Maybe he'd prefer if it was called 'advanced interrogation techniques'

I want nothing but the absolute worst towards all US vets

it's actually not torture unless it comes from the torture region of france.

how the hell do libs manage to be the worst at social media even when the other site is run by nazis?

Same energy as a guy who tried to tell me that forced sleep deprivation wasn't torture because he sometimes went without sleep for his college work

You can take your lEgAL dEfIniTIoN and shove it bucko

We mistreated and abused some folks

“Umm actually, it’s not torture because she is unpopular! And somehow having unpopular opinions makes it not torture!”

Can normies show me where in the definition of torture where it’s not considered torture if the victim doesn’t have all the popular opinions?

“mistreated and abused”. under captivity by an armed occupation

so, tortured.

As he worked for the US army he might have some expertise in torture. Hard to say on thsi one.

Stop saying she was tortured.

You are the only one saying it.

Pat I'm in a communist compound shit posting site right now and it's warm as hell we got stoves and like fifty blankets posts saying she was tortured you fucking loser

She was mistreated and abused.

This part is the only thing I don't disagree with

That does not meet the legal definition.

:Technically kicking a bound immobile prisoner repeatedly for being touched by moving object we put in her vicinity doesn't count as torture.

Just stop spreading lies

Zionist-lite dog

Real talk Greta is braver than every troop combined

"It's abuse and mistreatment not torture" is very "It's Heebie-Jeebiesphilia, not pedophilia" coded.

This is the sort of self-own you just gotta let someone run with

This is someone who posts/reposts hundreds of times a day but somehow also thinks that until something is corroborated, it's just a rumour and should be treated as lies. Considering how quick their fact verification capability must be, you’d think this one claim wouldn’t be much bother…

Though they did at least reconsider once they were given sources they deemed “credible”.

okay bro it's literally still bad????

and he's still wrong with the torture denial??

ya hate to see them, but these lib army vets are quite common

Unrelated: We (hexbear and lemmygrad) should write a letter to the participants in the floatilla. I know every one of us, down to the the last user, is just as proud as I am of them. I know they don't want to center themselves in this, but they are fucking heros and deserve a moment of acknowledgement. I don't think that necessarily takes any breath away from the victims of the IOF.

I know wikipedia have flaws but I like to quote them the "genocide denialism" article, the part where they say "denialists may enter endless definitional or semantic arguments"
