We are able to do that lmao

Yeah no, we don’t , double standard is everywhere.
Just take what’s happening in Palestine if you want the most recent examples, some lives are more important to us than others, there’s a difference between what we proclaim our values to be and our practice of them.

Don’t move the goalposts. You didn’t say we don’t. You said we aren’t able. We absolutely are.
You’re taking a quirk of language and trying to spin some commentary on human nature out of it.
Fuck off with your pseudo-intelelctual bullshit. All the sentence needs is “in Gaza” and you’ll get the response you were looking for. Stop trying to make people hate humanity, thanks.
If your goal is to engender love between “tribes” (stupid fucking word in this age) then stop spreading hate for any reason, even if the reason is that people don’t immediately assume “across the world” when you vaguely refer to events.

Oh, i agree then, except in the case of apology of terrorism/enemies.

No “we” don’t, or no you don’t? Seems to me like you just assume everyone is exactly the same kind of bigot as you.

No man, we care much more about deaths in the west than outside of it, e.g. in the u.s.a. instead of Iraq, or Israel instead of Palestine, partly because we divide between supposedly good civilians and evil terrorists with human shields, tsk.
