You could say the same about human rights abuses occurring under trump's presidency, right this very moment. Turns out political thought is not monolithic.

Nonsense posted:At this point the Kurds have no choice but to turn to Iran, and only madness lies down that path. This sounds completely loving naive, but is there any chance the Iranians would actually help the Kurds? I read somewhere that the Iranian government is actually pretty tolerant of the minority christian and Zorasterism(?) groups in the country

Farking Bastage posted:Orange skull complaining that the impeachment inquiry is unconstitutional is just icing on the loving cake. The GOP changed house rules so that a vote is not needed to start an impeachment inquiry, probably in preparation to impeach Hillary if she had won, and it is now helicopter dicking them in the face. poo poo they did themselves is continuing to come back and bite them and I love it. Yeah in hindsight it seems more like it was a "they changed the rules so they could investigate her with full impeachment powers without having to actually vote to start an impeachment investigation to get those powers, which functionally means all thats required to start an impeachment investigation with elevated powers now is simply declaring it has started".

Also this poo poo has me a loving mess at work right now, I don't know why of everything this is what's hitting me so hard but god drat is it hitting me hard. I am not okay. Maybe because its so big, so sudden, so pointless, so unjustifiable, even in twisted evil logic. It's just... gently caress.

You're not really wrong. The amount of coverage that the leaks about black sites and abuses got compared to the fervor for revenge was minuscule. People did know, certainly, and even a few senators spoke out against it even as early as the lead up to the Iraq war -- but it wasn't until 2006 that public opinion really started to sour. Shame that souring was so temporary. Normalizing a monster just gets you worse monsters, in the end.

So can we go ahead and indict Erdogan for war crimes now, or do we need to wait until we hit some arbitrary numbers of significant figures of murdered Kurds?

OddObserver posted:Nah, they are actually making threats, not saying they are "deeply concerned". Erdogan (apparently) announced this offensive by telling the US president to either help or get out of the way. He doesn't give a poo poo about revoked funding. Threats on this level are the equivalent of thoughts and prayers, because there's no way an offensive of this scale is stopping until they either accomplish their goals or face the threat of an actual, military confrontation.

I can't imagine Russia going all the way to Kiev, and he's already ceded east Ukraine. India just straight up conquered Kashmir. China is purging their own muslim communities. I wouldn't be surprised if Hong Kong gets very bad very soon. Pray to whatever that India and Pakistan can keep their poo poo together until someone else gets in the executive.

The EU had big public meetings about what to do to coalesce around themselves because we were obviously going to be of no use in the event of an actual crisis.

This isn't just the US being useless because our president is a moron, this is actively doing the worst thing possible because a dictator told us to.
