    Surprise, it's more "aesthetics and tone are the only contexts in existence" nonsense:

    Okay, but the particular phrase "bombing brown people" is always used by racists. Bombing civilians is bad

      And the phrasing actually serves a purpose, it's to point out that the bombing is in service of a racist imperial project and run counter to the narrative that it's a benevolent act where civilian casualties are justified as "collateral damage".
