I don't think what you're saying here is unfair. I will also point out that the intentions of troops matter little to their victims, which I think is really the point the meme is making.

How I feel rn: 😮‍💨

Yeah, me too. yea

    Hey, this is also not a personal attack. I don’t know if I’m the outlier here or not, but I figured I’d mention it and others can weigh in.

    I don’t get the urge to hurt people, not that I don’t hurt people, but it’s unintentional or uncomfortable for me. I get the urge to prove people wrong, but I only feel dread when I need to hurt people (not harm them, but I’m a teacher, so I have to have tough conversations with students sometimes).

    If you get the urge to hurt people, vote this comment down, if you don’t, vote it up.

    Yeah, most people have to occasionally hurt others, though I’m not sure how they feel about it.

    I believe that some people cannot coexist with others without being hurt (eg. imprisoned), but I don’t relish the thought, especially not in the context of war. If I could choose, I’d institute a gift-based Potlach system (but I have no real enforcement mechanism without violence, so…).

    To be clear, I’m not being judgmental about this, I don’t think anyone should be judged for their thoughts, I just don’t have those thoughts.
