    They see very little, actually. Soldiers see the people they kill on little screens, from a long distance away and sometimes without color. Civilians back home don’t even see that, they just see propaganda.

    And it’s not just literally seeing that I’m talking about. Can they hear the begging and crying children? Can they smell the burning corpses and open defecation? Taste the air filled choked with silicates and smoke? There’s a whole sensory experience of this genocide that they’re missing out on. I want to rub it in, make it stick.

      IOF Nazis literally post about their crimes on TikTok and Telegram. For the people who follow these channels, you need full on re-education to bring back their empathy - not just a trip to the concentration camp.

        I did also say they should undergo forced labor if you recall. Also be forced to learn the names of their victims.

        A tour of the ruins would merely be the first step of a long process. 👍

          Sorry, maybe there was a misunderstanding. By trip to the concentration camp, I meant sending them to Gaza to see what they did, NOT sending them to do forced labor at a concentration camp.

            I think you’re misunderstanding me. I didn’t say that sending them on a trip to the concentration camp would be all that should be done.

            I just think it’s a start. First go to Gaza, learn their names, recover bodies, and then we’ll see.

              Male them clean up their own mess. With the exception of those hanged after being convicted by a Palestinian war crimes tribunal, IOF members should be treated humanely but not a single one of them should be released as long as there is a single ruined house or a single unwanted military installation left in Palestine.

          Well they won’t be psychopaths once they’ve reformed shrug-outta-hecks Communism has a long history of re-educating fascists. Unfortunately, social revolution is not as simple as killing every one of your enemies!
