      The problem here is that he actually killed a lot of people. This is saying that they have to shut up about what happened to them in order to abet the agenda of folks in the US. that seems like imperialism.pic.twitter.com/fVbnELbZDY

      some antiwar folks push this argument, that we can't criticize bad actors overseas or we make an excuse for invasion. But that means you have to silence or delegitimize the voices of those people who suffer under totalitarian regimes. Which is morally wrong.

          if you're going to be in solidarity with people overseas, you can't insist that they shut up about harms done to them.

          someone was arguing that victims should be able to speak, but people in the US/politicians shouldn't. but that doesn't seem respectful either? "okay, you can talk, but we're not going to listen to you or acknowledge your suffering because it's politically inconvenient."

          anyway. obviously events in Iraq and Iran are interpreted in the states by people who know and care little about events on the ground and are instead focused on domestic politics, primary campaigns, etc.

          this is a big reason that imperialism and intervention don't work well and lead to misery.

          dropping bombs on people you know and care little about is rarely a recipe for improving their lives.

          I fail to see how the 'body count' argument used to justify assassinating Suleimani would not also justify any country going after any US president or high-ranking officer. What's the genuine difference?

          This is exactly why I get smeared and called a Trump supporter. I have to explain to these simpletons that the 2 ideas are not mutually exclusive. There is no reason to lie.

          In my experience, a very heavy sentiment of racism underscores the anti-war movement. The idea that foreign lives are worth less than American lives. Crises should be approached on a case-by-case basis.
