Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the agreement with war crimes make you a sympathizer? The act of being a sympathizer is deplorable, but not illegal. I feel like a lot of people take their name-calling to the extremes these days.

Does it make you a war criminal if you simply agree with war crimes that others have committed?
Bit of a wide reach to call her a war criminal, no matter if you agree or disagree with her position.

Nuance left the building a long time ago.

And nuance left the door wide open for pedantry and contrarianism to come in and set up camp.

Exactly my point but I guess I need to “listen to myself”.

Yeah, you fucking do. You’re like “But is openly agreeing with genocide really a bad thing?”

Please work.on your reading comprehension. That is not at all what I am asking. What I am asking is if that is already making you a war criminal in contrast to simply a bad person. If you don’t see the difference in that, I cannot help you.

Does it make you a war criminal if you actively defend the people committing war crimes while helping to send them weapons?
Soulg@ani.social 3 weeks ago
Actively defend them? No it doesn’t.
Sending weapons? At the very least you’re an accessory to it, so I’d agree with that.

What? Actively defending war criminals makes you complicit.

Actively defending a murderer doesn’t make you a murderer

It is still considered complicity in violating humanitarian law.

IMO I does if you are in a position of power like this.

I agree that Hitler should have been assassinated. Therefore, I am as much of a hero as those who tried.
Noodle07@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The assassination attempts failed, does that make you a failure ? 🤔

I … oh. Hey! Ow.
_stranger_@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
One succeeded, but you probably don’t want people to think of you as the guy who killed Hitler…

If you enable it, maybe, kinda. Something close at least.

Everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
However, persecution is an international crime against humanity, so if someone wanted to, they could make a case against her at the International Crime Court.

If Joe Bloggs next door agrees with war crimes, he’s just an arsehole.
If the head of the United Nations General Assembly agrees with war crimes, I think there’s a case to be made…
