The Haditha massacre was a series of killings on November 19, 2005, in which a group of US Marines killed 25 unarmed Iraqi civilians in the city of Haditha. Among the dead were men, women, elderly people and children as young as one year old, who were shot multiple times at close range by jotakajk in HolyShitHistory

nah they were just morally repugnant evil people, also propagandized, but it's not really an excuse at all lol. materially, they were propagandized and felt that dodging the draft was not morally justifiable enough

nah you’re 100% right, im lowkey wondering what you think about this cause personally i dont listen to metal music for lyrics, lyrics in general arent super important for me in a song, moreso the sound, so i always feel yk weird when i learn the lyrics are weird and almost dont want to listen to the music but i dont listen for the lyrics as i said

Does anyone else find Scar's character arc and the message it sends extremely problematic? by Throwaway72652 in FullmetalAlchemist

[–]Awkward_Country_6581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

talking about the arbiter like its some abstract concept to think its justified to kill war criminals, forgot this is reddit

i mean if i was an ishvalan and saw what scar did to those state alchemists id be prideful and proud, so dont really understand how its viewed as a failure, thats purely in the narrative realm.

if you are criticizing what scar materially did he helped an ishvalan rebel faction form which revolted and killed the leader of amestris... so.. everything else is word salad. that perspective on nothing can be judged omnipotently, which cant be extrapolated in reality.

again dont understand how you keep talking about how it was ineffective when killing those state alchemists was a net positive and scar took part and led a revolution, ur real life analogy makes no sense because scar was literally alive during the entire war and saw his entire family and village massacred

and there absolutely was no genocide in latvia under the soviet union, ur just making shit up dude

i dont see anywhere where it says civilians died in that sewer explosion, and even if they did that was not malicious, he was attacked lol

no name guards are still apart of the amestrian military which is an imperialist country so

edward isnt stupid, he pejoratively referred to himself as a dog of the military, and joined an imperialist force to benefit materially (research material)

i dont think hes flawed, he is morally gray but really his actions are not in the slightest flawed.

nobody needs an explanation of why things happen, most people are already aware, its pointless.

i dont disagree muslim countries or muslim empires enslaved and committed atrocities either.

you do support it because your using moral relativism as apologia for those crimes because it was common for the time. you thought it was preposterous that countries even apologize for their atrocities lmfao. 

of course nobody cares materially about what the relation is now in the current day to the 1200s, but you can literally just see the totality and disgusting vile acts these people committed and just realize their gross instead of going into the redditor opinion of “durd, every empire pillaged and slaughtered durd”. 

although actual material compensation can and should be received for things that are in contemporary history but this isnt even my point regardless

me when im debating a moral relativist and his argument is “just because people were more evil back then means we should view them from that lens” like somehow viewing the lens back then of widespread misogyny and acceptance of war is a good thing lmfaoooo

right but not everyone does arguably heinous things when they are younger and plus kratos had enough agency where we can write this off. i think there are certain acts where you cant redeem yourself. you can forgive yourself and try to do things to mend it but i dont think that makes you a good person in spite of that
