Excited to find the western chauvinists in this community.
Edit: Wow apparently the only people on chapo dot chat are whitees unaffected by and benefiting from their imperialism confidently declaring how the perpetrators are to be treated.
Y’all have some nerve
Edit 2:
ITT If you shoot a black kid in the back in downtown Baltimore I want nothing to do with you. If you perfarate an entire back family in Mogadischu or Baghdad that’s ok, you did growth and spaces.
man people ITT are projecting so much and responding to arguments that no one made. It’d be hilarious if it wasn’t so sad.
So what exactly are you arguing then? This whole thread is just you responding to posts giving actual material reasons for accepting veterans in the movement, and you saying “lol you’re not even understanding what I said”
I don’t think anyone here thinks the US military or imperialism is good or making excuses. They’re saying veterans are a net benefit to the movement towards our goals. Is your argument that everyone should insult them? Is it that being able to insult them is more important than having them in the movement?
Is your argument that everyone should insult them?
The tweet says that western leftists’ opinions are irrelevant. The implication is that victims of the US military are the ones who can shit and insult them.
My argument is for troops to have the same standards applied to them as men who got #metoo’d. If you’re not ready to accept reformed #metoo’d men then you should do the same for troops. If you’re ready to accept them but with caveats then troops have to have caveats too. My argument is for you to be consistent with your principals.
