    What is the purpose of punishment? To reform behavior? Or to make you feel better?

    You can claim justice, but in this case, that’s just making you feel better. You want to hurt someone because they hurt others. That’s how we’ve had never-ending wars. We as a species need to grow past this

      Do you think the Nuremberg trials were bad too?

      Using “pacisim” to excuse a genocidal maniac who has expressed zero regret for his actions. What a joke. I am glad Hitler died and I am glad Joe Biden is dying.

      The world will grow past these war criminals and their genocide mindset.

        You’re making assumptions. Fuck no. What’s happening is Gaza is some of the stupidest ape-brain shit we’ve ever done. So chill out, my dude.

        But this lust for vengeance is how Israel and Hamas continued escalating shit. Not a rational brain anywhere in that mess. “They hurt people, so I want to hurt them” is moronic. “They hurt people, so how do I stop them” is how we should be thinking.

          Hamas has not continued anything. Israel is the only party which refuses to accept a peaceful resolution. Hamas has accepted a two state solution since 2017. Israel refuses it.

          It is telling that you are trying to do a both sides on a genocide while feeling bad for its perpetrators.
