So you would feel better about their murders if they have been stomped, shot, stabbed, bombed, or thrown into a wood chipper??? The means does not matter… Edited October 11, 2023 by Starkiller IsntLifeFunny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can deny that the method that someone is killed does effect our emotions. A killer who brutally tortures and then kills someone is going to be seen as more evil than someone who just shoots someone. That's not to say the "normal" killer is good. Not when it comes to killing babies. Cutting a baby's head off or blowing its head off is the same damn thing. The rest of your analogy is a completely different topic. 22 minutes ago, headhunter said: So who here is a Palestinian sympathizer? Do you ever add anything of worth wo any discussion around here?

Their entire point is completely off-base. It really isn’t. Exaggerating violence in war has been a strategy for years. It was a massive tactic in WWI. Thus it is important to determine if acts of violence are exaggerated or not, and if it is determine they are - understand what the purpose of the propaganda is I can’t believe this is difficult to understand Jamalisms 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a matter of fact in the post you quoted me I said it's for historical accuracy/accounting. I'm not sure what you don't understand about the fact that shooting a baby in the head, stomping it to death, stabbing, strangulating, or beheading is all the exact same fucking thing n Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acring as if any way to do this would be more or less humane is insane unless the account was that the babies/children were raped or tortured beforehand.

begooode Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 The discussion of dead babies has become pathetic, imo. Everybody give yourselves the A+ in logic you think you deserve, ffs. Alzarius, MadMax, Jamalisms, and 1 other 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
