I didn’t say that Assad isn’t evil enough. I didn’t say that intervention in Syria is not warranted. I never said that it’s wrong to think in terms of good vs. evil. I never indicated any of the things you accuse me of. Where do you get this notion that I think it’s wrong to think in terms of good vs. evil?
You’re clearly very passionate about Syria and ridding world of Assad. Why don’t you go there and fight his regime? Does your moral outrage stop at the point of actually getting involved? Is your moral compass so weak that anger and invective at an internet stranger is enough to feel you’ve done something good in the case of Syria? You are quick to send others to kill for you but it appears you lack the ambition to go yourself.
It’s fascinating that you can be so firm in your conclusion with so little evidence. Despite never having said or even remotely implied the things you think I believe you have an unshakeable certainty that I’m a piece of shit. Despite directly stating twice that U.S. involvement in WWII was the right thing to do you persist in the delusional belief that I’d not have been opposed to Hitler.
- celticmusic 7y agoYou're morally contemptible for believing we should stand by and wait to intervene in atrocities. This is not specific to Assad, you are not the first person I've called to task for thinking your intellectualism trumps morality and humanism. There is a time and place for everything, in the middle of human atrocities is not one of them. edit: and you did say all of that, read back over your own fucking comments. It's there, the argument that we should be held to inaction because we're unsure that assad is evil.
