More Direct Violence - Tumblr Posts

wow holy shit powerful saw someone describing this phenomenon as ‘luxury automated destruction’ which i think is like the best way to describe it the people who make the choices to commit acts of violence and destruction are just so far removed from the choice and its consequences and yh how they replied proves the point exactly and says everything you need to know too many people think ‘indirect’ violence (even against thousands or millions of people) is inherently more humane/less violent than more direct violence if you’re going to make the decision to kill thousands of people where it is basically inevitable that many if not all will be innocents then you need to be ok with killing a completely innocent person unnecessarily because that is what you are about to do and if you can’t do that then. well dont press the button tw g0re cw: gore tw violence tw violent imagery cw violence mutually assured destruction nuclear weapons nuclear war anti war imperialism anti imperialism leftism advocating for peace
