Come On Home, Yankee soldiers

There is literally no mention in the article about how many Iranians military or civilian have been killed.

Fucking solipsistic Yankees man. And this is even supposed to be their respectable centrist media outlet. Non-american lives just don’t matter to them.

Your statement that this gets more attention than killings of civilians is not as obviously true as you make it. This is the first thread on Lemmy I’ve seen for example specifically discussing the ship whereas I’ve seen multiple others discussing the school bombing. So I’m not sure I know what you’re talking about here.

About the other two, again I’m not sure where you’re getting at. You’re digging your heels on what exactly? That people should not be upset about this? My points 2 and 3 tried to describe some reasons why people might feel upset. Your point is what? “Fuck your feelings”? I mean ok, you can say that, but then what?

Is this the FAFO the Americans keep taking about?

Your comment does multiple things at once.

You are asking why the outrage over this vs the school. Well, that’s a false dilemma. Nobody says the school bombing was A-OK.

You’re asserting that being in a country’s Navy makes it so that you accept the risk someone might shoot you. Well, nobody says it isn’t so. But that doesn’t make that loss of life A-OK. This is especially shocking given the brutal nature of a ship being torpedoed like that.

The United States has not declared war on Iran according to their own fucking constitution. They only make a bullshit self defense argument. But the ship was in an unrelated part of the world, in Shri Lanka, so literally unable to threaten anything. So the killing felt gratuitous, cold blooded, brutal, unnecessary. The US could have neutralized the ship in a more humane way, given them a chance to surrender, etc. Instead they chose this.

So, no, this isn’t more important than the bombing of the school, and yes it is a warship but it’s still brutal and shocking. Your scolding of people’s natural aversion to this massacre is just not helpful.

To move towards solutions that respect both human dignity and the law, and given that human dignity is non-negotiable, the law would have to respect human dignity.

you should be ashamed

you are a stupid, bad fucking person

go touch some grass buddy

Controversial opinion: more young Israelis should do what this man is doing. They should say “lol fuck this shit, who wants to be fighting anyway” and move out of Israel. North American and European countries should welcome them with open arms. Anti-aliyah. Who needs a shithole apartheid bunker state anyway? Settlers move out, come live free from that shit and Free Palestine.

It’s a private solution to a social problem, so by that definition antisocial. We need better and more humane schools for every child, not people retreating to private cocoons.

We need the ambition to completely rethink schooling, as part of deep social reform: https://jacobin.com/2020/06/red-vienna-children-childcare-public-health

Can we fucking decarbonize already?

Especially after the US torpedoed the Iris Dena? Fun times.

May your remaining bombs be duds and then you run out.

Fly the flag of Quebec.

Ah I understand, good clarification.

That’s entirely irrelevant to any radicalized Iranian who saw American bombs killing innocent school children.

Americans and Israelis when these particular roosters will inevitably come home to roost: “why do they hate us?”.

The thing about precedent is that it sets a precedent.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
