      Of course not. Liberals like to watch war crimes and colonialist atrocities on screens. It gets them really excited because it’s like their Prestige TV treats, but more authentic!

        I think they really think that their willingness to vote for genocide demonstrates how serious and high minded they are. People sticking to principles is taken to be utopian fantasizing, because real world politics means you have to lend your approval to crimes against humanity.

          They want to be the adults in the room who make the hard decisions and get shit done, just like the smirking edgelords in their Prestige TV treats that they admire and emulate so much and maybe even quote on LinkedIn. “I always repay my debts, just like my favorite bunch of inbred fantasy murderfuckers!” maybe-later-honey
