    What’s the ratio of innocents to guilty people you’d like to see killed to satisfy your need for revenge, then?

    Dropping the bombs was verifiably not about beating Japan or saving american lives. It was purely to stop the Soviets from joining the Pacific theater, so they wouldn’t get their seat at the peace negotiations.

    The Japanese military were monsters, and many civilians were on board with it. It is still wrong to bomb civilians. And that’s what this was, there wasn’t even a pretext of this being about military targets.

    And I’ve seen the images you’re talking about. I also know of the rape of Nanjing, and the experiments done by unit 731. I know of the institutionalized rape, slavery, and mass murder committed by Japan. None of this makes me want to justify mass murder of civilians in response. The perpetrators can rot in the deepest pits of whatever hell is worst, but collective punishment, especially of civilians, is never justifiable.






  • I’ve done that for one or two modules, but if that’s too much, I just do the hackjob solution: have the actual dot files in the repo and include them in the config, so nixos copies then to the store read-only and links them to my home. But I’ve had that come up pretty rarely, tbh. I don’t know if Home-Manager has become more comprehensive or if I’m just not that demanding, but I’ve only had a handful of modules where I needed to do significant tinkering
