And another day of “let’s shove all people of group X into one drawer and judge them”.
We have all this information available through the internet. Can research even the most difficult topics by some mere hits on a keyboard and a click. And yet, there are still so many idiots. This is really mind-boggling.

Yes yes. Germans are still Nazis. Alright. Never gets old that one.
German police are surely not angles and they need an independent control institution like in denmark. But to speak of “state repression” is a wild exaggeration.
If you are using a piece of knowledge rarely, it is less likely to remember it.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s some word from a foreign language you are trying to learn, a math formula or names and birthdays, even your own, or whatever.
I’m also terrible with names. But then again, I rarely use them. I even tend to forget my own birthday and would miss it if there weren’t people around me reminding me of it.
If other people know their age and birthday immediatly, that’s probably because they are regularly thinking about it. For names it is therefore helpful to use the name of persons you just got acquainted with very often in conversations with them.

I am already happy if there is any documentation at all. And I am euphoric if it doesn’t suck, i.e. sufficiently detailed and up to date.
So I guess Discord is better than nothing. But sure it’s a turn off.
It’s pacifism and striving for civil solutions to conflicts.
I understand the need of violence to defend yourself and others from violent attacks. And if this is absolutely necessary and there is no other way out, then at least don’t commit atrocious crimes, don’t kill innocent civilians, don’t rape, don’t mutilate. This is not acceptable as it is the worst humankind has to offer.
And I think it’s of utmost importance for everyone involved in this conflict to find peaceful and civil means. Violence leads to violence. It’s a vicious circle hard to escape from. Where would this end? This conflict has been going on since decades with what end? Only death everywhere, broken hearts and destroyed lifes. For what?
When do people stop being so stupid to think that violence is a desirable way to solve conflicts?
Even though I’m not a fan of it, I see the necessity of violent defense if some party is invading your country and killing your people.
However, there is a difference though in how you use that kind of violence to defend yourself. Killing innocent civilians, mutilating or raping them certainly can’t be justified in my opinion. Even if one side does this.
Thank you. Even though it’s worse enough to lie about that, which makes such claims less trustworthy - and I thank you for the notice - it does not cover the atrocious mutilation of women I talked about earlier.
Thanks a lot for the link! I watched the whole video. This definetly puts things into perspective regarding the trustworthyness of several news reports. I especially liked and agreed with the last part of his talk.
Didn’t knew that BBC was a shitty israeli propaganda site. However, I saw this covered on multiple news portals. Could you provide your source that this was debunked? This could change things for me. I don’t want to spread fake news of course.
I didn’t claim that they did the same. I asked whether it is justified to commit atrocious crimes just because one side crossed a moral line by commiting another (not necessarily similar) atrocious crime.
I have seen this covered on various news portals. I just chose one of them. Why do you think this is fake news?
No. Not in my opinion.
I didn’t notice that they were debunked. Could you please provide some sources on that? That could bring me up to speed and change a few things.
To me it sounds like both are justifying it.
A lot of assumptions you make there. But go on and live in a world where you think Germans are still Nazis if it makes you sleep better. I’m not in the mood of trying to reason with you about that and get into the necessary details. If you’re smart enough, you can take a deep dive into current and recent German society and politics yourself.
