doesn’t matter what anyone likes to argue, people are going to die and the only way to stop is to negotiate

Oh cool, let's negotiate for genocide. That way people will stop dy-

Oh, genocide means the exact opposite?

Huh. Weird.

“An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth leaves a world full of blind, toothless people”

And refusing an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth leaves a world subdued into abject slavery by people willing to commit violence on innocents to get whatever they want - including the thrill of committing violence on innocents.

This is "Gandhi writing to Britain and saying they should surrender to the Nazis because nonviolence is the highest principle" level bullshit.
