    I’m not talking about collective punishment, you brought that up bc you support groups that collectively punish women for existing. I just hate the taliban, and I’m not such a cartoonish misogynist or dumbass tankie that I think they’re cool and OK just bc they hate women or oppose the US. I really hope you come to that conclusion too, but if you don’t we should meet up so I can knock all your teeth out :3

      When I point out that it’s bad for Afghanistan to “go broke” because it means the starvation of the population, you respond by vilifying the Taliban. Obviously, this is not a direct response to what I actually said, so we have to put on our thinking caps. This attempt to justify the starvation of a population either by deflection or a more concrete but implicit logic is the logic of collective punishment.

      I have nerve said anything like this.

      I just hate the taliban, and I’m not such a cartoonish misogynist or dumbass tankie that I think they’re cool and OK just bc they oppose the US.

      It sounds like you are having a rich disagreement with the person in your head. And you are even winning! But it has no relation to me.

      I really hope you come to that conclusion too, but if you don’t we should meet up so I can knock all your teeth out :3

      We have now reached the “threats of violence” portion if the Lemmy.world experience. And all because I don’t think the country of Afghanistan deserves to starve just because the Taliban is its government.

        Except that isn’t what OP actually said. Now who’s having a rich disagreement with people in their head?

        This thread started with vilifying the Taliban, you responded with “oh you want people to starve?” Obviously, this is not a direct response to what they actually said.

        All anyone said was that the Taliban is bad, and you’re very weirdly up in arms about that.
