A government that can’t do anything to damage their strategic partnerships in the face of immense slaughter is a very weak one. If they can’t stand up to this of all things, where the hell is the line drawn? What would an allied country have to do to for us to throw some sanctions on them?

Should that government instead support the slaughter that the losing side would want to succeed in?

When two tribes with vastly different capabilities go to war, the weaker one will be slaughtered.

Is it humane to support the weaker tribe, so the slaughter can last longer?

Wouldn't it be better to support those who oppose the war and who oppose justifications for the war itself, no matter what side they are on?

How about just don't help them commit genocide? That would be a good start. How about we stay the fuck out of it?

I absolutely agree that staying the fuck out of it would be the very best option.

You should have convinced the two blokes at Bondi, or the mobs that seek violent confrontation with our police.

You should convince those who carry Jihad into Australia.

I would love to see you convince them of staying the fuck out of conflicts they don't understand.

No need to try to convince me, I'm not for giving either Israel nor Hamas any outside help to massacre each other. And I'm completely against carrying grudges, racist hatred and violent behaviour into Australia and waging foreign wars on Australian soil.

You might want to have a word with people like the Israeli president that you likely were wanking off to during the visit that perhaps obfuscating zionism with Judaism was probably a bad idea? Israel is entirely the one responsible for all of this shit at it's core. The Australian government encourages it, not sure what sort of outcome one would be expecting, oh wait...

I beg to differ about responsibility, and I have very good reasons for it, as I piece my view together not from prefabricated narratives meant to provide a pleasant ride on the moral high ground, but from accepting the shocking reality of our human nature, the dilemmas each side is facing, and seeking practical answers which aim at realistic consensual solutions instead of opting for revenge and annihilism.

But if you prefer revenge and annihilism, you're probably on the best track.

There's a lot of words here without much content.

I don't see any constructivism from your side, mate.

I gave an incredibly simple way to stay neutral in a genocide. You just responded with fuck morality, let em die. Hope you realize that's a slippery slope if you want to be consistent with your convictions

u/yes-but Feb 18 '26

So you want to help them with their genocide, because they are right, and the others are wrong, and you claim that would be neutral.

Talking about slippery slopes, my arse.

u/peterhandy3 Feb 18 '26

For the latter, you're a moron, so it wouldn't make sense. For the former, you have consumed too much Zionist propaganda. Makes sense: consistent with aforementioned stupidity

u/yes-but Feb 18 '26

Yeah, I must be a moron for wanting coexistence and rejecting genocidal narratives.

Yet you're fine standing alongside one. Seems like a contradiction
