There's only so far one can claim ignorance as an excuse. I blame it on a mentality in the USA of people having such bad experience in public education that they "don't want to learn no more." The desire to question and expand one's knowledge was ground away. As well it was easier to live in ignorance before the internet. Now it feels more of a choice.

These days? Sure. But back then it was a much different country. And a lot of solders came back as liberals, but according to lemmy they deserve to die anyway

Not all of lemmy does, but there's some out spoken people I've seen I disagree with.

Most the people posting here sure seem to be.

They we're not that stupid when they left. They chose team murder willingly, that's not something you can just shed like so.

It's the only way to have any kind of social mobility in the US. Do you realize how many lbgtq and minorities end up joining? This shit isn't simple.

And that on top of all the lies and brainwashing

Ah, so murder is okay as long as you're part of certain groups? Or is just being poor enough? Lower middle-class? Or is it a point system where you get enough and are excused so LGBT middle-class are still good people but a middle class straight man is a murderous monster?

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't say that. I just pointed out how this shit works.

So how disadvantaged you have to be to be excused of murder? Clearly there must be a limit for you.

How important is it to you that we have no onr on our side that can fight?
