I genuinely thought this was hyperbolic satire.

EDIT: Outlet has edited headline since time of posting.

You would need to be entirely devoid of any semblance of humanity to even conceive of this idea, right?

How do you want to celebrate the joy of a new child? Oh, I don't know, how about we make a light of ethnic cleansing and genocide.

Fucking ghouls

A lot of times soldiers when they come back from war have a lot of post-traumatic stress and they end up drinking a lot and they have a high suicide rate. So when the war ends it really doesn't. They just bring it back home. And Israel is on the verge of a civil war. So all the mistakes of that society will come back and blow up in their face. We just have to be patient. I really question if the state of Israel is going to last. I mean, a lot of people in the United States despise Israel, and they will isolate themselves from the rest of the world and be notoriously known as terrible tourist. So they'll be discriminated against and shunned. Justice will be served eventually. The United States really at the end of the day is just using them as a proxy. They think they're controlling us, but we are using them to control our population for our imperialist endeavors. And just like Ukraine, we'll throw them in the gutter, because these are all just dildos of empire. What you do overseas will come back to you and me. The imperialist boomerang effect. We just live in dystopic times and we just have to realize that the world we live in is not the same and so our likes and dislikes need to change. Our habits, our patterns, our hobbies. You name it. We've got to start thinking locally. Stop giving corporations money, get a hobby, be productive, stuff like that.

I mean all that PTSD is why America had the prohibition in the first place.
Wives were getting abused by their husbands back from the war and said they seemed on edge and worse than before... So, "it must be the booze and not shellshock cause they are tougher than that".

The world changes and reacts to its new conditions its just a shame people are morons and evil little shits 8 times out of 10.

~~"Won't somebody think of the poor genocidal murderers!?"~~

Edit: didn't read it beyond the first few words and had a kneejerk reaction. My bad.

Yeah, you're right,
