You got a magic way to ensure only Trump voters are affected and not their children and any non-Trump voting neighbors? Because otherwise that’s just collective punishment and it’s extremely reactionary and evil

It's not collective punishment, it's a triage and rationing of now far scarcer resources. Shit sucks, wish people didn't vote for it, but they did, and now here we are.

I’m sorry but did the children vote for this

Do the children in the countries we sanction vote for the things we're sanctioning them for? Hell, did anyone in most of them? I agree they shouldn't suffer, it's a shame more people voted that they should than shouldn't.

Which countries are we talking about here because the reasons for US sanctions are very different (and varying degrees of evil) depending on the country

So context matters now? None of those kids voted for it, and that's your argument against triaging healthcare funds, why doesn't it matter now?

Yeah I'd rather you spend that time thinking about what I said. Like, really thinking about it and examining whether or not you're as good of a person as you think you are for it

Enjoy arguing with the voice in your head. Maybe you'll win.
