It's not "both sides" to accept the reality of the situation.

This is you, 42 minutes ago:

both sides are terrorists

Anyway, I'm done. Enjoy being a stooge for genocidal powers you say you don't support. If this were a post on my home instance I'd be a lot more rude right now; as it is, all I'll say is that this experience, for me, is best encapsulated in this emote:

wall-talk

Both sides are humans therefore both sides are exactly the same, right? The words "both sides" don't by themselves indicate that someone is asserting equality. Both sides literally are terrorists. Both sides are not equally to blame for this conflict. Both sides are however responsible for their attacks on civilians.

Be rude as you like, but it won't make you any smarter.
