Virginia lawmakers on Monday passed a proposal that would require schools, if they teach students about the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to relay the facts of what actually happened, without including misinformation that the 2020 presidential election was stolen or that the attack was just a peaceful protest.

    Okay fair points. Are you religious? Sounds like “Taking Responsibility” and “Receiving Punishment” are inseparable from your perspective.

    IMO we wouldn’t have these problems if human beings weren’t fundamentally capable of being manipulated. As such I do have reservations about treating every single soldier like they’re a war criminal.

    Lastly, I think one thing to feel no remorse and entirely another to say everyone categorically deserves what happens to them.
