OTOH, when people feel pain because of their government is when things change. (though not always for the better, it is still the only attempt we have)
I agree that this kind of violence is necessary in resistance. Im just saying i can simultaneously support Ukraine's acts of resistance while also feeling sorry for innocent people that have no powert and don't support it and aren't able to escape. It's not a zero-sum game.
I can appreciate that Americans experiencing suffering can drive revolution while still feeling sorry for them having to experience that suffering, because it shouldn't be necessary because these things ought not to happen, but they do, and the fight against fascism often requires the spilling of blood, unfortunately.
I appreciate your thoughtful approach. I've pushed against the change here in the US for decades now, and it really has been pretty terrible to watch it slowly get worse and worse, to the point that we are at now, with no bottom in sight. I appreciate you recognizing the suffering of people, because you know that there are people directly affected by these delays and cancellations that are good, kind hearted people that want better for this world. Why can't we all just get along? Because of assholes and bullies, many of whom have found there way to the tops of government.
