    One. You gave me one example. I gave you thousands.

    I never said it was moral or excusable. All I said is, what did you expect would happen given what we’re doing to them. You have a lot of anger over the people forced to do bad things for survival but not against the ones who created the situation where they need to do these bad things. Why is this such a difficult concept for you to understand?

      I gave you two actually. I can give you more.

      You have a lot of anger over the people forced to do bad things for survival

      Ah, so they are being forced. Thank you, that’s what I was saying.

      By the way, the idea that the only way you can survive is die on the battlefield doesn’t make much sense.

        No, you gave me one. I explained why the first one actually helped prove my point. Which is why you provided the second. And I’m too tired to read that person’s biography to point to why he actually did it and give him some kind of justification. Unless you can give me some kind of substantive example where there are a huge number of kids in developed countries who are having happy lives you’re point here is not justified.

        Ah, so they are being forced

        Now you’re just not even arguing in good faith here.

        By the way, the idea that the only way you can survive is die on the battlefield doesn’t make much sense.

        Is this your way of dismissing their suffering and their choices to defend themselves even in the face of overwhelming odds?
