"It's OK to kill people some of the time, but it's not OK to blow up hospitals and schools. That's not FAIR. You can't kill journalists, that's CHEATING." Some ole playground-sounding bullshit. Then sit 40 or 50 fuckers in a room and call what they talk about international opinion. "Raise your hand if you think a genocide is happening"-lookin ass. "Aww, Amerikkka voted no, so let's do this again in six months." Is the world in the room with us? And while they playin Heads Up Seven Up, multiple generations of living beings/creatures/ecosystems are being mutilated and destroyed in a matter of minutes globally. How insulting. How trivializing.

WTFIGO? WHAT.THE.FUCK.IS.GOING.ON. I don't get it. When will the outrage be real? There's life and death and the struggle to keep them separate. And then there are men who believe that struggle doesn't belong to you, that you have no say in it actually. This shit is urgent. But we arguing about right and wrong for sport and spectacle. Expecting justice and accountability from the average conquistador. Huh???
