a global generation that won't be storming any beaches or cities would be a blessing for the world
imagine a generation in russia that just keeps doing what they do instead of listening to an old psychopath in Moscow who decides that it would be "good" to send hundreds of thousands to their deaths to bring death and destruction to millions of others
being peaceful is not a shame!

There is also no shame in fighting to demilitarize a dictatorship or tear down a theocracy, though. Tolerance ends with the Intolerant, I only hope that the Zoomers understand that at least as well as Millennials.
fight will end when everybody refuses to fight, not when people with their noble reasons find justifiable excuses to keep fighting
enemy is not detestable theocracies or sick dictators but thinking that there are enemies
we are one and we should act like one
There will always be someone who wants to fight
you don't know, you assume
Nah bro, fascists, and theocrats are definitely the fucking enemy.
they are but they aren't
If only one side chooses fight, then fight will end as well. With rivers flowing with blood of the innocents.
there are no "sides", just a world full of people with fantasies of innocence and heroism :/
There are people being persecuted right now for no good reason, and if you're not going to take their side then you're my enemy.
you are your enemy
Good people can't kill without shame.
Good people who watch others be killed have just as much if not more shame.
They absolutely do not.
They can think about that in great philosophical detail when it's them on the chopping block next.
Why wait? They could think about it right now, in all the places it's blatantly not true.
But being naive is sinful.
Yeah but... they seemed to not have realized that it would be THEM being used as cannon fodder. They thought they could just reap the benefits without having to lift a finger. It was going to be "repeal and then replace", and then once they swallowed that line, it reeled them in when it was too late to pull back.
i.e. they were promised peace - the territorial expansion was only supposed to last 3 days and that hardly counted in their eyes - and did not realize that by having elected Putin, it was already too late.
