(135,425 posts)Lines on a map can and do change. When you use the boundaries of nations as an "excuse" to not give a shit about basic humanity, you've got a moral problem.
And why you think everyone must throw themselves on the bayonets of their enemies in order to be "allowed" to speak out in protest against this kind of thing, well, that's just some of the most bizarre "logic" I have ever encountered. If you're not ready to die for the cause, you're a hypocrite? Please.
If you are a HUMAN, and you see HUMAN SUFFERING, it's incumbent upon people to speak out and protest.
By your standard, though, everybody here had just better go home and shut up--if they're not ready to make "the ultimate, all encroaching, full-bore sacrifice" with regard to issues that concern them, they'd just best be quiet! That IS what you are saying, and it's just ... absurd.
Yours is one of the strangest posts I have ever read on DU. Unreal!
