This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Okay, that's cherrypicking. I am not saying it was crossfire like any Jews deserved to die, they didn't. I'm saying that anyone calling children "just collateral damage" is evil, because THAT'S what I meant by crossfire, "they are not just collateral damage, you CHOSE not to care that your actions might hurt innocents".

If they are, in fact, collateral casualties to a military action, why is that “evil”?

Doesn’t that depend on whether the military conflict itself is justified? If Ukraine strikes a Russian weapons depo and it unbeknownst to them happens to be Take Your Vatnik to Work day, they’re likely to wipe out at least a couple of families. Is that truly “evil”? Isn’t that just an unfortunate tragedy in an ongoing tragedy called “war”?
