    You’d be surprised at how far people go to justify this stuff. Like when idf soldiers shoot children in the west bank, people justify it by blaming the kids for throwing rocks. Racism is a huge part of this.

      They should just be honest and say that genocide is in their best interests as a society if that’s what they truly believe. Which in and of itself is horrible but at least would be honest.

      I think those soldiers are just rapists exploiting the war to rape without consequence and they’d do it regardless of what side they’re fighting on. There are paid mercenaries that do that, you know.
