I don't know why it's so hard for certain people to understand that sometimes (actual most of the time), all sides are the bad guys.

[-] sunbytes@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

Maybe, there are more sides than just the people with guns and bombs.

[-] bitwaba@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Sounds like those people need to pick a side or risk getting gunned down or bombed.

Because some people need there to be someone they can root for, especially if the other side is aligned with other people they don't like.

They are both bad, but one of them trades with the rest of the world. That's why most governments lean towards them.

[-] JustZ@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

Correction. One is a democracy, so the rest of the world trades with it.

[-] firewood010@lemmy.zip 1 points 5 months ago

They are hardly democratic. But at least they are much better with contracts, promises and commitments.

Democracy only lives up to it's potential when its people work for it and it seems it doesn't happen often. Sometimes we get it right.
