You are, objectively, not your mind. The brain is just another organ that specifically evolved to better help your “bone prison” survive. That it sometimes comes with unpleasant side-effects like existential dread is a trade-off that was deemed acceptable thousands of years before you came to existence and one which you have entirely no control over.

Hey Goosebumps are great

This is a dictionary definition. Non-combatant ISIS members are also civilians. Whether they deserve to die or not has no legal bearing. Im unsure why that is considered controversial.

This is not the legal definition of civilian.

He is by definition a civilian that was murdered. Legal definitions do not care about our political opinions. It appears to be very likely he was a civilian who deserved to be murdered but that does not change the definition

? Who said he was innocent

Clearly everyone here is illiterate lol

Literally the opposite of what I said. How do you go from ‘hard to feel sad about it’ to ‘ it’s truly terrible’?

Yes? They deserve to be held accountable but even in a fair legal system they would not face the death penalty while those actually directly participating in or ordering war crimes would.

Nah. It’s very easy to argue that murder is ethically wrong or unjustified but it certainly is effective.

I mean he’s still a civilian and it it’s still murder but yeah hard to feel sad about it

Why do you need to be polite? If you’re direct or even rude you’re doing her a favour because it might turn her away from approaching other adults who would actually take advantage of her

Can someone eli5 why a plane successfully evading a missile is cause for panic?

Usually much easier if one person takes the lead yes. If you’re lucky it is obvious from the start who is better qualified or even interested in doing so.
