every single one; when I see a shitty tel aviv influencer join the IDF, I look forward to them being exploded by heroic Hamas resistance fighters; I pray constantly for their violent death

"You claim to not want to imprison innocent people yet you believe that people who committed war crimes should be punished. Interesting. I am very intelligent"

Uh yeah that's actually a totally incoherent set of beliefs

If someone thinks prison is beyond the pale for any crime, but also believes that even an association with war crimes is worth the death penalty, they need to put a little more thought into it.

Lmao I don't think there's anybody who thinks the goal of prison abolition is to not have any form of punishment for crimes and if they do they're an unrealistic idealist. I think it's more about not keeping people in prison for decades for minor crimes and using them as slave labor the entire time. If there are I certainly am not one and never claimed to be so not sure why this is supposed to be some kind of gotcha.

This is like people who say that defund the police is bad because how are you going to have a society without first responders.

I didn't say that, I said "If someone thinks prison is beyond the pale for any crime." Those people are out there, I've talked with them, and that's what abolition means.

I didn't respond to you, you responded to me
