He's right on this one. We shouldn't be supporting a government that kills civilians no matter how much they try to justify it with saying there were legitimate targets behind them.

Often the excuse isn't even "bad guys behind the civilians" it's "probably bad guys somewhere sort of in the general area, but we didn't actually check first".

Oh yeah, then there's the "old lady trying to drag her dying mother into a church" those are always valid targets, apparently. As is the old lady's mother before the whole being drug into a church thing.

Oh boy, I can't wait to see my Catholic conservative family melt down over this one lmao. Papal infallibility is fun when it's on the right side of history

Bro the pope is infallible only if he agrees with them

[-] roguetrick@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago

Pope isn't acting in an "infalliable" role with this statement, unfortunately.

Damn, that's disappointing. At least I still get to see them seethe over the acceptance of lgbt people

You’ll know by the hat

Yesterday the same quote was posted, but instead of "on civilians" it was "killing Christians" (or something like that).

Hot take scumbag. Who cares? Fuck the pope. His opinion means absolutely nothing. Every less-than-complete-shit-bag-of-a-human has already been saying this for years, without the delusional thinking that their opinion is somehow more special than everyone else's.
