In armed conflicts, the worldโ€™s primary focus should, of course, always be on the suffering of innocents on the ground.

But we should also think about the destruction of minds beyond the immediate war zone - how reason and morality are wrecked by a conflict mentality. People condemn one sideโ€™s atrocities while justifying (or ignoring) the otherโ€™s, as if the laws of war and expectations of basic decency only apply to one side.

@andrewstroehlein@mastodon.social avatar

I feel to help end the former - the immediate suffering - weโ€™ve got to work on the latter - the wider poisoned atmosphere.

We need more people defending universal humanity and condemning atrocities regardless of which side has committed them - more people supporting principles over partisanism.

On April 24, Human Rights Watch wrote to the German government asking for an explanation of how its actions are consistent with Germanyโ€™s international & domestic obligations to protect & facilitate freedom of expression and assembly & nondiscrimination.

We have not received a response.

Instead of showing concern for the victims of the ongoing atrocities in ...

Instead of taking steps to try to help stop those atrocities...

The German government is trying to prevent people hearing about the atrocities.

It's beyond shameful.
