Reply: "The only atrocities the Afghani Muslims have committed is not sending you home in a pine box."

okay this is epic

I've witnessed the atrocious Muslims committed in person in Afghanistan

Staring through the scope of my .50 and shaking my head in disapproval so the rest of my brigade knows I don't like what I'm seeing

(Fighting on behalf of muslims in a country thats 99.7% muslim) Those evil muslims...

[–] [email protected] 40 points 8 months ago (1 children)

US marines were absolutely not fighting on behalf of muslims or anybody that lived in Afghanistan

Even if I'm going to take this racist shit seriously, what does this have to do with Palestine you imperialist dog?

This idiot probably thinks Afghanistan is next door to Gaza

every yank who took part in afghanistan will say they "served in the middle east" despite the country... yknow, not being in the middle east. if you're going to invade a country on behalf of your empire i feel like you should at least know what part of the world it's in

[–] [email protected] 45 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Depends on who you're talking to, some consider it as part due to cultural similarities. The ambiguity of what is 'the middle east' is part of the racism towards the area according to some of the middle east history classes I've had

[–] [email protected] 43 points 8 months ago (3 children)

yeah and it's pretty culturally distinct, they just want to lump muslim countries together. it's as "middle eastern" as pakistan, turkmenistan, or uzbekistan. it's like saying austria is a balkan country

most yanks seem to think afghans and iranians are arab, too

[–] [email protected] 30 points 8 months ago

indonesia, mauritania and bosnia are middle eastern countries

[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Austria is in a certain sense a Balkan country.

Austria is Balkan though. It's part of greater Albania

Middle East is where Muslims live QED

[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

After 9/11 the Bush admin coined "Greater Middle East" which was literally just every majority Muslim country more or less contiguous to the Middle East. Anything from Mauritania to Somalia to Azerbaijan to Kazakhstan. The former-most having a latitude west of Europe and the latter-most having a latitude going into India and China, being lumped with a geographic region that just means "near the east"

They're all Muslim and so they're all bad.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Who funded the atrocities by Muslims in Afghanistan?

you'll never guess

It was Americans and their fair weather ally Pakistan

[–] [email protected] 44 points 8 months ago

his logic is literally "dude, why is my antiracist music scene not racist? don't they know this race is bad?"

[–] [email protected] 20 points 8 months ago

The Taliban trained Hamas right in Baghdad

"The atrocities Muslims commit in Afghanistan"

Bruh you were invading their country, stfu.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 8 months ago (15 children)

I don't mean to paint with a broad brush, but every marine that saw ground combat in Afghanistan is an unstable PTSD riddled psychopath.

Least racist marine

[–] [email protected] 79 points 8 months ago (2 children)

fascinating why were US marines in Afghanistan anyway

[–] [email protected] 52 points 8 months ago (1 children)

To steal natural resources and destabilize the global south... er, uh... I mean, for freedom!

For being reddit-logo , the comments are excellent. Overwhelmingly just dunking on him being a racist dipshit.

[–] [email protected] 64 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Some days I kinda wish I still had a reddit account to bully people

[–] [email protected] 39 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They would have banned you for hurting these chud's feelings

I actually just started getting into hardcore, but I’m a little less enthusiastic about it when I started interacting with the scene and saw how dogshit the politics are in it. How is the community STILL having debates about whether conservatives can be punk? Shouldn’t that have been settled in the 80’s/90’s?

[–] [email protected] 68 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It was. This isnt a debate that's had by non posers. Punks don't post on reddit

It's always the way, goes back to Dead Kennedys "nazi punks fuck off" and further.

I think aggressive music will attract aggressive people, and bigots sure are aggressive.

When the descendents put out a track celebrating Trump losing, all the comments were "keep politics out if your music" as if they hadn't always had political leanings in their work, and if punk/hardcore isn't one of the most politically charged genres.

I think the actual scene is a lot nicer. Go to a show and people are mostly on the level. Look at online discussions and you're more likely to find the people who fight in moshpits and get upset that women exist.

Keep at it! Lots of hardcore folk are sweethearts and I have met more good than bad from all areas of the hardcore spectrum!

[–] [email protected] 30 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

It's not really much of a debate, as you can see by this guy getting zero upvotes and 100+ comments calling him out on Reddit of all places.

the modern hardcore scene is pretty cool. there was a bit of chuddery back in the late 90s to early 00s but those assholes left or got their asses kicked or became similar to the punk rock MBA guy

Reading that Reddit thread makes me hopeful because it means not all Redditors are completely lost. But many of the comments will probably be removed within a day.

lemme guess, San Diego?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago

This guy got owned so badly, lol.

Unfortunately there's definitely a bunch of "apolitical" chuds in hardcore as some of the most downvoted comments in that thread can show you.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 8 months ago

But did he witness the atrocities he committed or was he just spraying with his eyes closed

[–] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago

Average US military troop: Muslims = Taliban Warlords
