I don't see how it's supposed to be my fault that Russia started a war.
It's not your fault. Your fault is ignorance that is cured with experiencing a war at close.
"People I know were involved in an illegal war, supported by no one, and chose to engage in it and I'm upset they were killed as a result of participation in a illegal war"
I'm sure the innocent people in Ukraine murdered by your country are just as upset. Except they didn't do anything but get bombed by you.
TBH I get along with Ukrainians much better than with so called "Ukraine supporters".
Like really, I remember having a job interview with a person in Kiev and him joking about "mopeds" (drones in 2023) have been interrupting the whole interview process.
Almost like life in war becomes accustomed. I believe no one should have to get used to war.
Maybe that's the difference between us. You're fine with innocent people getting killed in illegal wars. I'm not. Innocent people shouldn't be killed in ANY war. According to you innocent people dying is A-Okay.
That's probably why you don't get along with Anti-War activists... They don't agree with you that innocent people dying in war is okay.
That's a strange way to put it. The person I was talking about was a civilian and you're turning it as if he was a soldier.
No, he tried to profit from the war, like everyone else. Does it make him a bad person? Probably. Does it make his murder justified? Barely
What a shitty fucking anti-human stance you believe in. In the USA (Where I am not from) they don't have healthcare. So when an 8 year old boy is diagnosed with cancer people make Go Fund Me accounts, sell their belonings, and try and go into massive debt to fund the cancer treatment. And this is heavily leaned into a "Feel good story". "Neighbours come together to raise $30,000 for 8 year old with cancer" is such a dystopian headline when that cancer coverage should be fucking free.
But you show up here, on Lemmy of all places, and think civilians trying to not get killed my unmanned drones are a feel good story because they're making the best of a bad situation, when they shouldn't be in that bad situation in the first place if you and people like you weren't stoking off Russia and being okay with civilians being killed.
I'm gonna just straight up say it.
You're a piece of shit human being.
I have no idea what your problem is. I didn't start the war (obviously), I don't think it should be continuing, I don't revel in anyone's death on either side, and I have nothing to do with your friends death.
What exactly is it that you're upset with me about?
