You're more than welcome here.
It's uncomfortable stuff but the destruction of where you and your family exist could come about to make it better. To be carried out by an entity that you could contribute to, with violence only being carried out against the most stubborn reactionaries, allowing for a redistribution of resources in a much fairer way. Of course that's not what 9/11 was, but if every Hexbear poster was asked if they'd rather push the big red button on the US that turns it communist or into a crater, everyone but the dolphin people would turn it communist. Then it would (hopefully) be people like you that would make up the spearhead of change.
War is hell. Innocent people die or have their lives ruined. 9/11 is just a taste of what’s coming to amerikkka. I live here with my family and I don’t like it, but if it’s necessary to liberate the planet from imperialism, then so be it.
Literally nobody here has a positive attitude towards the death of innocent people. 9/11 stopped being about that when it was weaponized to illegally invade and terrorize sovereign nations. Now it's just a symbol of the US' peerless narcissism such that having to endure any hardship at all is license to do whatever you want to whoever you want for as long as you want all while acting like you're the victim.
I'm an american too. The fact of the matter is, you and I are much, much more likely to be killed by a domestic chud than by the global proletariat. Our government has shown they don't give a shit whether we live or die (see covid causing a 9/11 of death a day for awhile, and the tepid governmental response).
So I just don't think it matters that people vent about how awful america is and sometimes take that venting to the extreme of saying "every american deserves to die". Like, obviously that's not true, but also? Who cares. The people saying "death to america (and americans)" are not the people who are going to kill us. We've got that handled domestically.
I guess I'd just say that you should try not to read them as death wishes, because I don't think they really are that. It's more venting taken a little too far. I know for a fact that some of the people posting these kinds of things do not want me dead, and I know this because I've seen them in other contexts say things about how quite a few americans actually can be comrades and do not, in fact, deserve the wall.
Obviously, don't participate on hexbear if you don't want to or if it's bad for your mental health or anything. Keep yourself as safe and comfy as you can online, there's nothing wrong with that.
But know that people on hexbear (for the most part) don't actually hate us and want us dead just because of where we happened to be born. It can come across like that sometimes, but it isn't true.
but the people of the world don't deserve the consequences of American foreign policy either.
I sure do feel that. I think that's been my biggest, I don't know what to call it, shift of perspective, maybe. I've realized that the us is fundamentally evil and a force for evil in the world at large. Our government isn't making little oopsies because they tried so hard to do good and just kind of fucked up a little. That is not what our history is. It's a history of inflicting misery on the rest of the world in order to prop up our empire. The us needs to lose all its power, sooner rather than later. Is that going to suck for those of us who live here? Yeah, probably. Although even then, who is it going to suck for? Those who are doing ok right now. Not the many, many people who are already suffering under our government that doesn't care if we live or die, as long as the rich keep getting richer.
I don't know, I might delete this later. I've been feeling maudlin and like we already live in a cyberpunk dystopia recently, it just doesn't hit everyone equally. I'm also a bit drunk.
I went for a walk around a lake yesterday, and only saw middle class white people living their comfortable lives. Then I walked back to my apartment building and saw suffering and misery and poverty. Why is the lake path only for comfortable middle class white people? Why are the miserable poor people not going for walks around the lake? It's easy walking distance, and a lovely area, so why? Maybe it has something to do with the 7 cop cars I saw between my apartment and the lake, 2 of them just idling at corners.
The vibes are all off in america, and I've just commented half an essay at you about it. I'm sorry.

I understand, I'm just correcting an allegation you made that we have a positive attitude towards the death of people

Like Fidel said (i think), I have nothing but love for the people of the United States.
nobody deserved to die on 9/11, but the people of the world don't deserve the consequences of American foreign policy either.

sometimes the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism seems designed to make us sad, like that Disco Elysium quote.
One can organize, preferably with a mindset of revolutionary optimimism, one can go or at least take the
We don't owe it to to beat ourselves up over things we have no practical control over, at least try not to do it for too long.
