    I get what you’re saying but I also hate that shit. These people made choices! And ok let’s say it was between signing up for a fascist position or being homeless, they made the choice that it’s better to cause pain to someone else before themselves. Also, we’re assuming they didn’t have other choices which is probably biased in itself. End of the day, you don’t get a pass to torture and kill others for your own survival.

      Oh I’m not giving it a pass at all. It’s morally reprehensible. But there are logical reasons why people do it.

        Sure, but I just see this argument shoehorned in as a justification for this crap. Which it’s not, so idk why it’s part of the conversation 🤷
