  • I didn’t have a point in my statement. You and everyone else can take it easy with the geoploiticing. I’m aware that generally there isn’t anyone completely in the right in the middle east. I was just pointing out how interesting it is that I was condemning Iran not two years ago and wanting a regime change and now Isreal is picking this fight. I was tempering my own mental reaction. Things move fast and we forget things. A western puppet gov in iran might actually be good for its people. I just dont think the US should put troops on the ground. We all sit behind a screen and talk into the void picking sides and arguing about this and that but for now, it amounts to nothing.


  • Yeah it’s too bad the phrase “both sides” has become another trigger term for people. You legitimately can’t say anything anymore. Tribalism is a real problem online. You used to be able to have opinions that differered from other people. On principle I understand wanting to advocate for human rights. But bad actors have turned what should be a forum for discussion into what amounts to a binary rap battle. It’s online gang warfare that’s been cultivated to stop communication and growth. It’s gross. Life is complicated and we can’t always be right but we can always try our best.
