    When you’re staring down the barrel of genocide, survival is all that matters to all but the most flagrant with their life.

    Very few people give a shit about their culture when you’re looking at your children and deciding whether they should die for your cause.

    I’d like to think that’s gonna be a hard no for 99% of good people.

      Thank you so much for pointing out my blind spots. You’re 100% right and my making light of it was insensitve and disrespectful. (I’m replying this to both of you so you have the notification, as both posts gave me a lot to reflect on. )
