      For real though I was just thinking this is the language of abusers but on an international scale. "Why would you make me do this". The denial of genocide is bad enough but if we're now transitioning on to "they forced us to genocide them"....fuck me...that's actually really terrifying and it makes me uncomfortable to think about.

    Nothing is more evil than not only admitting you're committing a genocide, but framing it as "well they baited us into committing a genocide onto them"

      Doing spousal abuse on a national scale. Israel really is just a nation of cops.

    We aren't committing genocide. Okay, we are, but they made us do it. Okay, they didn't make us do it, but—

    "Disgusting how the untermenschen laid a trap for the glorious Reich that unfortunately risks giving Russia a propaganda victory. There's no evidence of a genocide though, and we must all remember that the Reichstag fire was horrible. The use of human shields by communist sympathizers inside the Treblinka occupational opportunity facility must be condemned. Germany has a right to defend itself."
