It’s like they try to come off as educated or something, but in reality they have 5 lines memorised that they repeat on every subject and that’s it. It genuinely feels like you’re talking to bots sometimes.

I absolutely don’t think we should be thankful that our comforts come from a system of murder, rape, and exploitation

If your father handed you a toy knowing he got it by killing a kid and his family for it, would you not be thankful for it because of what it came from ? No, so why start with something with a few more degrees of separation?

I’ve seen liberals talk about the history of the US for the last 25 years of my life. Where has that gotten us? The most stringent anti abortion laws since roe v Wade, an increase in violence and police brutality in black communities, the most politically unstable regime in US history, a literal cuckoo celebrity elected as President, and the worst wealth gap ever seen in this country.

How does talking about the history not make us go backwards again?

If you have no problem being an apologist for violence, where will it end? how can I not assume you will kill a neighbor for your own gain if you’ll allow someone to kill a foreign child for it?

Who is apologizing for violence? Its possible to acknowledge the horrible origins and still use and be happy for the safety you enjoy

Talking about killing my neighbor is crazy lmfao I was just born here bro

A worldwide event where we hype up nationalism sounds great in today's political climate

That is a terrible and contradictory way of thinking that will have you siding with the forces of oppression when the time inevitably comes for you to choose.

Those atrocities have all been present since the dawn of humanity, in every single civilization that has ever existed. They are a fact of life. You’d be hard pressed to find anything that couldn’t be connected to some atrocity through X degrees of separation.

Unless you are living off the grid, surviving off your own effort and making conscious choices to specifically not use items that came about from unethical origins, you are doing no different than the child taking the toy in your anecdote.

There’s a decent chance that somebody peripherally died or at least suffered for your iPhone to be produced, why are you still using one?

World Cup has always been about unity and spotlights a bunch of small countries that otherwise might not get too much attention, don't bring this negativity into it...

Because you people keep spouting the exact same points despite being confronted with the very reality in front of you that spits in the face of your stupid takes if we were to call you the idiots that you were and left it there than you would all whine about “civility and polity” yet none of you will take the concrete facts that we present and critically think about it

You are all the same
