You also don’t have to go out of your way to actively lash out at them regarding their anger towards those that harmed them and/or their loved ones, just because you were a guilty participant. If it’s bad for your mental, block and move on.
It was the other way around, they lashed out at me, and well beyond you did bad and should feel bad, would have been right about that. I get to lash out at people who tell me to kill myself when I very nearly did, and I don’t make any apologies.
Unless there is something I’m not seeing they lashed out at soldiers, specifically soldiers that served the U.S., without any consideration of if anyone here was one and you took it personally.
Do you take the same stance when people proclaim their utter distain and hatred for Americans or have you just not seen that yet?
I don’t have to justify myself to you. I’m deeply ashamed of the fact I joined the military because I thought it was an ordinary job, and I resigned the second I realized it wasn’t. But I don’t have to listen to tell me to kill myself without reacting to it like a human.
You don’t have to justify anything to me yet chose to end the comment with it anyway.
A person made a broad statement of absolute loathing of imperial enforcers (like this entire site does with the IDF) and you felt bad this treating it like a direct attack cuz you once were one. Then you attacked them for it.
I think eternal torture in hellfire is a bit much applied to me personally yeah. You would react similarly I think, even if yeah they’re probably right that I should put a gun in my mouth. I got over that urge years ago thankfully
Gonna be real with you comrade, telling american soldiers to burn in hell here is common place, and will not change. I really don’t think it should either. That said, it is good that you have seen your failures of the past and have moved to the winning side. But this comrade did not lash out at you in particular. It was a general statement, one that is generally accurate, and you took it personally. Your comments have been reported for being imperialist, and while I’m not going to delete them, I think you should. This comrade and others who have been wronged do not owe you forgiveness, or even kindness.
You’ve grown and changed over the years, excellent. But none of us can expect them to forgive you or play nice about it.
I don’t expect forgiveness and I know I don’t deserve it but I don’t like being told I belong in an eternal torture chamber or I should put a gun in my mouth
I don’t have to be nice to people who think I’ve done unforgivable wrong and they are sweet innocent niceness
I know what I did was wrong and I nearly killed myself over it
Just because you know something you did was wrong doesn’t entitle you forgiveness, let alone from those affected.
Your entire framing for the comment is so wild to the point I don’t know where to start.
Edit: used ableist language during my second point, edited out.
Never said I was entitled to forgiveness. What I said I don’t have to be nice to people who want me to kill myself. Nice ableism btw
Fixed the problem part of my comment.

Edit: fixed big grammatical error
