    Unlike you and most people trying to convince me every US soldier is a stormtrooper for the empire, I have family in the region and know people directly affected by this war.

    I never said that US soldiers are innocent, I just don’t celebrate them dying because I think human life is valuable. Edgeposting online feels very cool but doesn’t do anything to end this conflict. If you were so against US imperialism you would do things like protest at home and tell you representatives you’re against it. Demonizing soldiers online is just childish and immature.

    More US soldiers dying will also not let the conflict end sooner which would be the best outcome. Those dozens who have died so far will be replaced by others.

    Doesn’t seem to me like this is an extremly pro-US position.

      You don’t know what I do and don’t do and who I do and don’t know. I’ll continue to celebrate US soldier deaths and you can keep pathetically mourning these white supremacist tools of destruction.
