So yes, you need to put in a lot of effort. That effort is being put in though so it's not like I'm arguing there are no issues presently.

And there are people who are seemingly bad people, but to argue it's an unchangeable characteristic of their personality seems pointless debate IMHO. Some people, e.g., Nazis, do need to be punched/killed, of course.

At what point does it cross the line into thought-crime though? Or pre-crime? That's the thing...

What abt soldiers? An 18yo from Flint gets recruited bc there are no other prospects. Trained & indoctrinated, sent to MidEast to fight war for power & oil, taught to hate "towelheads" & to have barely-restrained programming to discriminate violently. Should they all be killed?

And everything that came before that should not be taken into account? The literal brainwashing / programming that is essential to military training (or any kind of institutionalised grouping) should not be considered?

MY DUDE NO. So "just following orders"? I mean fuck you because I take serious person pride in un-brainwashing myself from a militaristic culture and Laurelai takes pride from similar, I ASSUME, given she served.

You seem determined to leap to conclusions about my viewpoint here. Theres a reason ppl have to be deprogrammed - that they can be demonstrates its not about "personal evil". I am not arguing they should be forgiven, but I'm also saying they shouldnt be executed on sight.

I actually think it's you doing that... Do you think Laurelai and I think that back when I was brainwashed by my culture (to hate, be scared and be racist) I should have been executed?
