      Got references you can point to? Most of the threads I read specifically want them to face justice for their crimes. Which is part of human rights. Getting the death penalty after being found guilty of participating in literal genocide is more than fair and doesn’t violate human rights.

      Also, people say hyperbolic shit when they’re angry. And this war has understandably made a lot of people extremely angry. Not defending them if they really are calling for taking away human rights, but those people won’t be the actual ones deciding or even influencing what happens to anyone after the war so your tone policing is not doing much to help.

        Got references?

        In this thread 3 separate users are in favor of war crimes on civilians and genocide, while the fourth argues against it by limiting themselves to favor extrajudicial killing, within a single conversation. It doesn’t sound very hyperbolic.

        And that’s just what fit in the screenshot.

          I concede that there are some problematic takes in that thread, but they also don’t seem to me like actionable threats or anything that could conceivably incite real world acts. I just see people who are angry at the current events venting their anger with little prior thinking through of the full implications. Not defending that, but… actually I tried to opine further but I feel I’m not knowledgable enough to talk about this, I personally wouldn’t make those comments so I haven’t really thought about justifying nor condemning people who do.
