You’re literally paying for it! Do you not feel anything for the direct consequences of your actions?
The fact that you refuse to accept responsibility for your own actions doesn’t change the fact that you are complicit. You have to grow up and learn to take responsibility for what is being done in your name with your tax dollars, or they’re just going to keep killing in your name using your tax dollars. It’s really that simple.
You want me to stop because I’m giving voice to your own guilt, because you know I’m right.
I feel you may be somewhat mentally unstable, so discussing anything with you may be dangerous.
I have taken no action. I have no say in how my taxes are spent, thus I feel no guilt.
You are using “direct” incorrectly. I have taken no direct action. The person or persons who used my money in such a manner is the one taking direct action.
Supposedly this is a democracy, implying you do have a say. Furthermore, you choose to pay your taxes. You choose to go to work. You choose to buy commodities. You choose to participate in society. You choose to obey. You can stop. Yes, at great personal cost, but you can stop.
You aren’t actually powerless.
You have decided that the personal costs are too great to act, and the way you’re talking to me makes me certain you are guilty.
We all are complicit and we all have to reconcile with this. Running from your complicity by personally attacking me for giving voice to your own guilt won’t change that.
It’s not okay to not have an opinion on the bombs you’re paying for.
Sure it is. There are many things my taxes are paying for that I don’t have an opinion on.
“You can’t be neutral on a moving train.”
You can choose to not have an opinion, but that just means you’re siding with the genocide. There’s no neutral option.
That’s just your opinion. You can’t actually prove that.
I can prove that you are supporting genocide. You pay your taxes, right? Then you’re supporting genocide.
Unless you’re too young to pay taxes? In that case I could give you a pass - it’s not like you know any better anyway.
But this is something we all have to reconcile - we’re all complicit. You don’t get to wash your hands of this.
Again, you’ve proved nothing. This is just a conclusion/opinion. Just stop.

Ukraine and Uyghur. What is your stance on those issues?

I assure you, I feel no guilt. I don’t care.
