Young democrats are more pro-dont-commit-war-crimes, older dems are disensitized by war-crimes and obsessed with anti-terrorism.
Republicans love the war machine and think that genocide/wiping out the opposing side is the only way to resolve anything.

You really need to understand that there is a waaay bigger political spectrum than “Democrats” and “Republicans”. Especially when it comes to foreign policy.

Random condescension on Lemmy, what else is new.
I was basing my statement on an NPR poll and those were the categories that they used.

You are dn the internet and not everyone here is from the US.
The US political system is not the center of the political world.
In fact, I think that the Democrat Republican dichotomy is one reason why people in the west are so badly informed when it comes to politics.

Take off your offended pants and reread what they wrote. If that’s condescension then you’re too sensitive for the internet and should probably log off.
I am being condescending. They were not.

Lemmy seems obsessed with needless disputes and pedantic “gotcha” moments. (Your comment exemplifies my point beautifully, by the way.) It is condensing to read my comment in the uncharitable light of arguing the US political spectrum applies abroad. But instead of trying to discern what the other person means, a lot of you would rather find a disagreement where there is none.
You’re both being condescending and can happily fuck off.
