It's almost like if I say it enough times, it becomes untrue. Anyhoo, I just felt the need to express myself about this one thing that bothers me, and that's comment misinterpretation.
I was on youtube, watching this Onion News Network video called Four American Troops Tragically Killed Along With 23 Afghanis, and after watching, I thought that the video did a good job portraying...well, I'll just post a screenshot of my comment below.
In 6th grade, we held a mini debate in class about what good is versus evil, and I told the teacher I wasn't really sure if there was an answer. In the example I used, a spy from country A would be seen as evil from country B, and good in country A, while a spy from country B would be seen as evil from country A and good in country B. The point is that while we may believe that something the other side is doing is evil, when you get right down to it and put yourself in their shoes, you'll see that from their point of view, what they are doing is good. Killing thousands is good and bad--it simply depends on what side you're not. Not that I'm advocating war or killing or anything. I'm just pointing it out. The death of one can be tragic or be a reason to celebrate. It all depends on context.
I'm not sure whether or not it is our place to judge. You will hold your opinion, and I'll hold mine. I just hope that people realize that sometimes, they need to step out of their "context" and into someone else's context.
Happy for thumbs up, but sad for misunderstandings,
