I can only shake my head at your obsession about what the 'actual' number is and then going off on tangents about zero deaths blah blah. Who cares if it's 997 or 539 or whatever. You going to wake up at 2 am if there are 540 dead but sleep like a baby through the night if there are 538 dead?
My point has been consistent throughout. Please stop asking for a specific number like it means anything.

I didn’t ask you for a specific number this past time. I understand you are uncomfortable even discussing the concept. You called someone a war enabler because they were discussing how many civilians it was acceptable to kill. So unless your number is zero then you happen to be a hypocrite.

So spare me talks about nuance. We’re watching humans butcher other humans. Those trying to explain why it must be so are aiding and abetting the slaughter. It’s not complicated.

This is a child’s fairytale position. Innoncent people will die in war.
