So would you tell the people who were in the Japanese anti war movement that they should have done more or is there a point where you accept that sometimes the system is just too big for citizens to stop it?

It's easy to act like a hero behind a keyboard, when confronted to the prospect of having to choose between our life and the life of a stranger in another country, the vast, vast majority will sacrifice the stranger and if I had to bet on it I would bet you would do the same because the odds would be in my favor. Heck, it's a choice we make every day by purchasing crap made in third world country instead of spending more on stuff made locally, including whatever device you're typing on.

And that necessitates that I take some responsibility for those choices, including the ire of those wronged by the actions of my society. And the greater the wrong, the greater the retribution one must expect.

"An eye for an eye"

Bull fucking shit

By that logic, how do you want to go about choosing the Americans that need to be killed to compensate the death of the citizens of Irak and Afghanistan? 🤔
