Or, war itself is a tool of oppression.
This is just an expansion on "violence is inherently bad" which as an anarchist I hope isn't something you believe
Violence is inherently harmful.
Some people and institutions do deserve to be harmed. Those people and institutions are almost never who actually gets harmed in war. War sucks.
So would you oppose a war of liberation, such as the Vietnamese fought against Japan, France and America?
No, not really.
But neither of the wars mentioned in this 'infographic' are wars of liberation.
"The Palestinian struggle against the Israeli settler colonialists is not a war of liberation actually"
You might possibly be the least intelligent person I've ever seen.
do you know what's harmful? capitalism. i'd suffer every pain for the world to achieve socialism. yes, you might not believe it, having a comfortable life in the global north, but there are people willing to be harmed to achieve liberation.
