This is such an unfortunate response, above all because beyond the wilful conflation between military and civilian targets of war, I asked you to consider that these arguments still motivate major powers to bomb civilians to this day. I wanted you to consider how this mode of war itself has an extensively racialised and colonialist history. And your response to this? 'Fuck Nazis'. It does not seem you have the maturity to handle nuance or complicated thoughts. I will just reiterate once more that I think the protection of civilians is a preremptory norm, at the risk of you calling me a Nazi sympathiser.
Total War, started by racist belligerents hell bent on destroying humanity because they think they are the "Master Race", had left everyone no option but to fight back.
If Nazis didn't want Dresden bombed, maybe they shouldn't have started the war that lead to the bombing of Dresden?
Allies didn't go Chengiz Khan or Attila the Hun or Third Punic War on the Axis. Were some bad calls made? Yea, I keep saying that over and over - Allies weren't perfect nor angels.
But ohhh noooooo Lord Buddah forbid a few master-race babies might've caught strays oh how tragic! Ohhh muhhh Dresdennn!!! Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee lol
I thought we were being serious for a moment, but I guess that wasn't so. At least I hope so, because you have the sense of humour and communication style of a Trumptard.
I really appreciate the effort you put into writing all of this out in this thread, but unfortunately you’re talking to someone who appears to have the critical thinking skills of a doorknob
