A rare and disturbing picture, so much about this is still a mystery. We don’t know what became of the skull—or, indeed, what became of the young woman herself, or the man who sent it to her …
In this thread there’s been a lot of handwaving about “war is hell.” You said war is desensitizing and that the peoole who did war crimes were “unstable.”
Thats really common when US war crimes are brought up. “Well obviously war is hell/war is desensitizing/they were just crazy,” gets deployed, instead of the most obvious thing staring us in the face - the core US value of white supremecy.
War is hell. What about the culture of white supremacy, genocide, rascism, and aparthied the men who commited these crimes came from? Was it really just war that desensitized them?
You may not, even probably aren’t falling into this consciously. But you are making excuses for war crimes and the reality of what the US actually is.
You made an excuse for war crimes
Yeah, no. I did no such thing.

Still no. You don’t have a point here, however much you try to force one.
If others are ‘handwaving’ war crimes, that’s on them and you can argue with them about it. :-)
What was your point then?
What I wrote lol. I’d say that someone who thinks sending skulls back home to their families is not in a sound state of mind.
Sure no subtext there. Fucking smug ass lib
