Hard to imagine that this argument exists, the real victims of mass murder aren't the actual victims of mass murder.

If a country was killing thousands of people and saying it was to make people like you safer, might you not be inclined to point out it's having the opposite effect?

  • No, that isn't my general reaction to Hitler saying he killed Jews to make Europeans safer.

    My reaction is "what are you talking about, psycho murderer?"

    That's a good look, try that.

    • Perhaps we'll have to agree to differ, but I think American Jews being like "not in my name" sends a more politically effective message than "what are you talking about, psycho murderer?".

      tbf I'm not primarily interested in what's a good look.
