            How many hundreds of thousands of children do you want to burn alive to punish those you think have done wrong?

            You’re hoping children die because you’re angry about politics.

                I think the people telling you you’re wrong ALSO don’t want America blowing up schools

                america gets to

                Is that your metric for atrocities?

                Politicians in a country did something bad, therefore we should burn a bunch of innocent children alive to teach them a lesson?

                Is that what you think makes the world a better place? More dead children?

            I suppose you think Iran is full of innocent people? You think there aren’t Iranians who fully support the oppression of women, LGBT people, and other minorities? There are people with harmful politics all over the world

                You’re saying that American citizens deserve to be nuked because their politics make them not “innocent”, by that metric Iranian citizens deserve to be nuked and so do people everywhere. Why punish America for giving Iran what they “deserve” according to your reasoning?

                    No one in America has used nukes. They’re all dead now. Many of them of painful bone cancer.

                    So who are you punishing? And how far back does that punishment go?
                    I assume you think everyone should burn for the sins of people born on the same patch of land as them?

            Are you one of those “nobody is innocent” people? I guess it can be argued that everyone who uses animal products deserves to die and anyone who uses electronics made by slave labour and anyone who uses websites owned by billionaires
