Least genocidal liberal
(hexbear.net)
This guy really said "I hope 1,100 kids die."
Bet this guy has some hot takes on the Uighur Genocide
All Muslims are evil terrorists.
China is genociding the Uighurs.
Russia is so warlike that peace loving Americans must support blowing up dangerous Russian children.
And Ukrainian children
Why are they all like this
Media pounding "Russians evil" into their brain pans for literally their entire lives.
There's got to be more too it than that. Like is there some kind of normalization of mass killing in liberalism? Is it nationalist brainworms and assigning all the misdeeds of the nation to the individual?

That's definitely part of it imo. The west has gotten very adept at rationalizing why mountains of bodies are necessary to protect our very righteous and good culture.

Normalization of mass killing- as American gen z my entire life has had mass shootings, war on terror, and recently covid. People dying is uneventful for my generation
as American gen z my entire life has had mass shootings
Holy shit this guy is basically calling to shoot up a school, most American thing ever
Reducing school shootings is actually cultural white genocide
gen z
Yikes sweaty, associating your whole generation with Putler? Not a good look

Ask any lib what they think about the US killing 20% of North Korea's entire population in the Korean War and you'll get your answer

In a vacuum libs are for peace ("rules-based international order") and reactionaries are the ones openly calling to act like an empire (Ted Cruz's comment on "let's find out if sand can glow"). When the wheels hit the pavement they act about the same, but they view themselves differently, justify imperial actions differently, and respond differently to hypotheticals.
But libs have been exposed to the same pro-military propaganda as everyone else, and let's be honest, a lot of military gadgets are pretty fucking cool, so they're shamelessly horny for a just war. Convince them the current war is actually a clear-cut good vs. evil struggle and they'll use the opportunity to cheerlead the military like they'd be embarrassed to in ~~Vietnam Grenada Iraq Panama Afghanistan Iraq again~~ one of those bad wars we've regretfully stumbled into in the past.
I hate pulling out the quote, but liberalism is distinguished by a distinct lack of principles or ethics.
Lack of ethics? Maybe...
Principles? For this, I quote:
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” or in this case, opposing it, as the saying of Upton Sinclair goes.
Not so much mass killing as mass killing of enemies.
It's not just "Russia bad" that's been shoved into their brains every second of the day for 40 years, it's that Russia is ontologically, completely, irredeemably evil. Russians and other designated enemies have been so dehumanized as to no longer "count" for liberals when they talk about mass murder.
Nuance has left the American media. “Russia Evil, Russian just regular people“ doesn’t get clicks.
Bring back fair doctrine, please.
Selection bias. If the comment wasn't insane, nobody would post it
Noticeable in a lot of links to reddit threads, too. You'll definitely find unhinged fascism in the comments, but you see people arguing against it (or posting genuinely good takes) fairly often as well.
Libs, a land of contrasts (also some of this is just from reactionaries).
I've seen boomers on facebook praise the Parkland school shooter for killing kids that were (paraphrasing) "going to grow up to be commies anyway".

Jingle some keys and brunch in front of an American, and he will slaughter an entire village for you without hesitation.
A…new school? Truly this symbol of imperialist oppression must be destroyed.
I probably shouldn't even ask, but surely these libs realized that lots of Russians have always lived in Ukraine too? And that the kids going to a school in Mariupol will be mostly Ukrainian?
Mfw I miss the rant

who cares
95% of the time, when someone says this on the internet, they're an asshole at best. 
Wait, I thought they were supposed to be "liberating" those students from the Russian "oppressors", why does he want to kill them?
Really giving the game away there, libs are perfectly aware this began as a civil war and fully back the Ukrainian state's ethnic cleansing policies

To me, this demonstrates a lack of understanding, not a total understanding. They just don't know shit about the situation (minor details like the fact that they would consider most of these kids to be Ukranian) but are happy to shout "Russia Bad."
There's a reason you can pry libs away from supporting wars over time -- eventually the facts come out (for example, more and more press admitting that there are Nazis in Ukraine), and some of them will respond to that. They just aren't going to sift through the propaganda on their own.
You'd think they'd catch on eventually, though 
Naming all the bad wars we've fought (which lots of libs will agree were bad in highlight) and then asking "and you're telling me this one is different?" isn't a bad approach.
GlionKKK, can you turn around real quick?
Bet this MF is doing crocodile tears over the "poor white farmers" being punished for their unspeakable sins in South Africa rn.
Who wants to bet he also says “Never forget 9/11!”
stalin shouldn't have stopped at berlin
Arguing with people who believe in "Russia bad" because my media tells me so is borderline impossible. They incapable of thinking anymore. Like, 98% are not into military at any given country. Stop this bs
I bet this lil guy looks off into the mirror and makes that exact pfp face while snickering to himself everytime he posts like this. Like a bad kid who knows exactly what he's doing, but with a bigger ego and a worse shave.
The only doubt I have is maybe he lacks the self awareness for even that
dude’s so liberal that he doesn’t need to be scratched
