If Music Could Talk

Must be your reading comprehension then. Good luck with that. And this is you trying to score a little internet point, a "weird thing that goes on with online discourse." Congrats. I'm not really ready to let you have the last say on this. If this was a productive conversation, meant to help illumi...

FWIW, I actually think I am guilty of hypocrisy, but it's a very personal kind of hypocrisy. It's the hypocrisy of wishing to generally be taken in good faith on this topic, and sometimes being incapable of extending that good faith outwards myself. I've tried to get better about that, but I admit ...

Summarize my hypocrisy for me, please. I already did that. Scroll up or learn to read. Quote the relevant post, please. Scroll up. I'm not your butler. I scrolled through - again, and I feel like it's worth repeating because historically this is a no-no around here, I did see the post you made fant...

You play the victim so well! It's no wonder you're so quick to leap to the defense of the professional victims. And I certainly have described your hypocrisy. You missed it while composing your own hagiography. Summarize my hypocrisy for me, please. I already did that. Scroll up or learn to read. Q...

You probably wouldn't be the first person who wished I'd taken a bullet! Usually they're people familiar with my enjoyment of Dave Matthews Band tho. In future, maybe we could leave fantasizing about the murder of other board members to former Clash Mark II guitarists, tho. Great talk tho. You keep...

I don't disregard international law based on the victim. Funny thing, that commitment. Yes, you're so upstanding and not at all a vapid bag of air. Too bad you weren't there to take a bullet for him and prove the depth of your convictions. You probably wouldn't be the first person who wished I'd ta...

Enjoy your rage at someone who supports international law. I'll be spending my energy opposing what's happening in Gaza. When you're not crying tears over dear departed saintly Zionists. I don't disregard international law based on the victim. Funny thing, that commitment. Yes, you're so upstanding...

So... is that a no on the conventions that hold that embassy employees are legitimate targets in circumstances involving genocide? Look man, I was thinking of being super, super snarky here but I'll be earnest instead: I've said - in this thread - that Israel is committing genocide. Ive marched in ...

Nothing demonstrates my superior moral position than asserting a right to kill anyone I think deserves it. Also, when my enemy says the same thing, that proves how morally debased they are and justifies my targeting them. "asserting a right to kill anyone I think deserves it." That you would actual...

Name which conventions allow you to Target embassy employees, thank you But since you're here tonight making the case that you're a trifling little bag of hot air, then I'm happy to help you. I want 100% of those pursuing genocide and inviting WW3 to meet their maker ASAP. "Israel" and the US have ...

Nothing demonstrates my superior moral position than asserting a right to kill anyone I think deserves it. Also, when my enemy says the same thing, that proves how morally debased they are and justifies my targeting them. Since the dynamic of cause and effect eludes you and sequential time is no mo...

Not really. You disagree that following international law is something we should support? I just want you to say it. Then I just want you to know you're wrong. It's a moral and legal right to stop genocide. Multiple conventions affirm the latter. Name which conventions allow you to Target embassy e...

My point was we need to focus on the atrocities in Gaza and support the adherence of international law. What parts of that do you object to, specifically? I thought I made it plain that I specifically objected to your whining about the Zionazi getting killed. Not really. You disagree that following...

I won't speak for Stefano, but I'd say abiding by international law - which generally holds that embassy employees and diplomats aren't legitimate targets in war - is definitely staying human. There's unspeakable brutality happening in Gaza every day and instead we're litigating whether murdering t...
