Genocidejoe fuckingcapitalists goddamnedfascists
The Houthis are regularly firing on U.S., British and merchant ships. Should nothing be done?
Yes, genocidejoe should stop the genocide
That didn't answer my question. Please do not avoid my question and answer it. Avoiding questions is cowardly.
It's not my fault you don't like the answer that stops killing people.
Killing people like the innocent merchants that the Houthis are firing upon? Or do their lives not matter as much as other people's lives?
To my knowledge the rebels haven't yet killed anyone only damaged property. Which so far demonstrates far better control and responsibility than genocidejoe
Right, because they know for sure that their missiles won't kill anyone. They have special death-free missiles.
Sad that you care more about capitalist transport ships than literal ongoing genocide.
Sad that you don't care about the lives of the people on those ships, many of whom are extremely poor.
Yes I'm certainly the moral monster of the two of us.
You're the one who doesn't care about innocent people's lives. I never suggested any such thing myself.
Yes that's why I'm opposed to genocidejoe and his murderous rampage...I don't care about innocent people's lives...
You don't if they are in "capitalist transport ships" apparently.
Just curious... what if some of the people who work on those "capitalist transport ships" are Palestinian? Still okay if they die? Or should the Houthis somehow avoid sinking the boats they're on?
Again, nobody on the ships has died and I respect efforts to end an actual goddamned genocide even if it endangers a few people. The fact that you adore genocidejoe more than human life is sad.
Please quote me saying I adored him. Unless that was a lie. Was it a lie?
Maybe you enjoy taking stupid unreasonable inhumane positions for fun instead of a misplaced political loyalty I don't know. If you care about lies then you wouldn't have said the rebels have killed people.
Got it. It was a lie.
Truly, you are a bastion of intellect.
