As an American, I feel the need to pushback when someone tries to rehab or whitewash our war crimes.
Saying "W. is kind" is just unacceptable pablum.

It depends what you mean by "kind". If you ignore the war crimes and focus on their interpersonal skills, sure you can say they were kind.
But by that same definition, Hitler was kind too.
Or a Mossad agent..
Memes like this always irk me because, yes Russia is underhandedly influencing online discourse, but they are just one of many.
The Russian budget for online influence is dwarfed by the efforts of first world defense and intelligence agencies.
Misinformation Bot says that WaPo is left-center lmao. Absolutely ridiculous.
Yea it is ironic that the decendants of Holocaust survivors would go on to commit a genocide of their own
He died for his own cause, I am only trying to amplify and honor his message.
I will take advantage of his death to spread understanding, empathy, and a hopeful end to the genocide.
He tried to die for a purpose, why are you so intent on stripping his death of that purpose? You are the one who dishonors the dead.
The war against nazism wasnt just fought on the battlefield, it was also fought on the cultural front.
edit: and even more importantly, the economic front as well.
I think Matt Nelson is a hero. His death was not one of fear and loneliness. It was the ultimate act of empathy, compassion, and humanity.
I'm going to celebrate his heroic deed, and I encourage everyone to do the same.
Israel is an ultranationalist power which has lost its democracy and is now waging an offensive war for the purposes of territorial gain and ethnic cleansing.
In a word, they are Nazis.
Ask yourself: how did we eradicate the Nazi scourge? Then do that.
It's not about the production cost, its about the opportunity cost.
A quick google search tells me a national ad costs $200k-$1m for a 30s slot. That means 5 seconds of screen time costs $30k-$150k.
It is absolutely disgusting how you talk about an ongoing genocide.
