It's genuinely hard for me to comprehend how fucked in the head you have to be to not only be smiling as you kidnap a child, but to then post evidence of it yourself as though it's something to be proud of. Like it's one thing for politicians or assholes online who are several steps removed from these atrocities to confidently spew hate online like it's normal. How does a person not only witness this, but do it with their own two hands and have THIS reaction?
The whole Israeli society is so rotten to the core, I don't know if its even possible to rehabilitate them without mass reeducation campaigns that no country is going to take responsibility for.
This ends well for no one
and heads up, zionists dont see americans or christians as any more human than they see palestinians. Its just politically convenient for them to not act on that right now. None of us is a full human to them, and theres nothing we can do about that.
It begins with regarding other people (be them a different skin colour, culture, or faith) as a problem. Then the roadmap to regard them as less than worthy as Humans is well on its way. Once you've established them as lesser and unworthy, committing atrocities on them is very easy.
@Tattorack @darthelmet I don't think it's ever easy even then to commit atrocities. I think it takes a special kind of degenerate people, in a degenerate environment, to become sadistic women and children murderers that also burn crops, poison wells, kill animals, enforce famine and deny relief to those they deliberately wound and maim...
History is full of examples of it being easy. You strip away the human status from a particular group and suddenly you don't feel so bad hurting them. So long as you don't talk with them, of course. That usually makes people realise the others are just people too.
But they are several steps removed from reality. They are so brainwashed that they think it's okay, that normal people cheer them on, and that it's only bad people who would see anything wrong with this.
When they're not seen as humans but animals, vermin, etc. it becomes easy to commit such atrocities.
An excerpt from "On Freedom" by Timothy Snyder I'm currently reading helps define it some,
How he defines Lieb in the book,
Curious
Oh look, someone who's had their brain ruined by nazi propaganda. You're gonna be fuckin surprised at the way this war ends, I can tell you that
What events (economic, numeric, territory, whatever) should I watch out for, so I know when to be worried?
that sounds like how I'd try to explain it but it still doesn't make sense to me. like if i caught an actual subhuman piece of shit, let's say a zionist rapist and child murderer, i still couldn't even imagine taking a selfie with them like this. like wtf is this photo dude.
