They are being genocided despite his reference to you. The goal of the occupier is the destruction of a group of people, either by having them interned indefinitely, by forcing them to leave (again) or simply butchering them.

Genocide historian Segal says the intent is there.
Very Macron-like of him.
Canada had paedophile and state-run genocide camps masquerading as schools for Indiginous children well into the 70s!!! This is clearly an extension of that mindset. The Canadian government is sick.
Also a great hack to lower your personal rate of inflation.
That’s cool. My peice had to said, because the rightwing types were benefitting from the silence or disagreement of people like myself who want no more intervention.
Wall Street funded them bro.
You use text-based social media and deride reading?
:(
They are liberals with paper thin corporate-friendly politics.
That user who suggested we ‘help’ is either malicious or ignorant. Because help doesn’t mean we release the reserves of money we’ve stolen from the Afghans. It means invade them again, whether she means it or not.
The best thing we can do now is let the Afghans be sovereign and no longer interfere (which won’t happen). You can expect nothing good socially from there, as the Americans helped the Taliban defeat local progressive and secular forces in the 70s. All we can hope for is for them to eventually stand up on their own two feet.
Anyone who whines about the plight of Afghan women is either doing propaganda or is misled. Afghan women have children too btw - children that are starving - have Biden release the reserves.
Feels like a geopolitical issue more than a religious issue.
The downvotes are probably because you seem to ‘ignore’ the US role in arming the Taliban.
The soviets didn’t even like them iirc. Very sad situation all round.
They weren’t good because they were reds. They weren’t even really RU/SU-aligned. They were good because they were progressive and also happened to be neutral in terms of foreign affairs. But they learnt that the US funded the taliban and that’s why the reds were invited in. The US got word. And disaster ensued.
Rebuilding translates to funding the lavish lifestyles of our puppets. Very colonial.
Those needless military casualties are equally on the hands of our elite and their shares in arms companies.
And think of the Afghan people themselves. They don’t know peace because of us.
Fight your own fights.
Agree with all but this. We did start it. And we’ll learn no lessons.
Sadly Bill Clinton and Tony Blair backed Putin initially. It’s not totally the people’s fault.
The lemmydotworld admins are preemptively defederating from far left hexbear. Defederation is supposed to be the last resort. The ironic thing is, only a few weeks ago we had redditors calling Lemmy devs tankies and telling people not to come here lol. And now we’re losing potential users because of paranoia from lemmydotworld admins.
Clowns everywhere.
I was on one of their megathreads, and it had 900 comments to a 100 up voted post. 95 percent was text. They comment always. The pig stuff are probably a fraction of what they post.
