I’m sure this wasn’t intentional, but using dwarf as an insult can be rather hurtful to people with dwarfism. There are reasons to be upset with Kruschev but that’s unrelated to his stature, and certainly has nothing to do with being a dwarf/little person, which he was not.
Or perhaps he has come to the truth that two unites into one, and that permanent tariffs can coexist with open borders as humanity unites in its next stage of social development.
This would also kill everyone in Gaza. If seeing people suffer and die upsets you, the response should not be a belief that people should die on a larger scale, but that you should be looking for the people that are also opposed to suffering and death to try to create something that uplifts people. New futures are built through the dedicated application of human imagination: not through wishful (or vengeful) thinking, but through a conscious effort to create better possibilities.
There are billions of people on this planet, and wishing death on all of them is what the fascists are doing. Please try not to join them in that line of reasoning.
I don’t know who that is, I assume whoever first said it which is why Melian put it in quotes, just wanted to offer up that even if it’s in quotes, when you uncritically repeat demeaning insults like that you contribute to a hostile atmosphere that alienates people already on the margins of society who should be your comrades
edit: glad whoever that is stopped using that word, shouldn’t have taken so long. he desperately needs further introspection
