I don’t think history is a factor in the way we think back to WW1 or WW2. Yes, it plays a role. But in my uninformed opinion it’s more people just hate each other. They’ve lost relatives because of the other side. They can’t have this happen to more people they like. Hospitals and power plants explode, people live in poverty. People die. Rockets get shot every day. Revenge takes place. I’d be pissed, too. People on both sides are living under constant attack. Religion and history gets on top and makes it yet more difficult. Politics is more focused on retaliation than compromise or working towards a solution. Agreements are short-lived and people show over and over they can’t be trusted. It’s a bad situation in every way.
Additionally there are some people who just like murdering civilians. And they’ll do if they get the opportunity.
Thanks for spreading the word. We get these complaints every few weeks. More people need to be educated and move away from these instances to make the Threadiverse a better place.
