    It’s a dehumanising way of putting it but he’s not wrong about the problem.

    Terrorism can only be stopped by preventing radicalisation. This ends up being an inconvenient truth for incompetent sociopathic leaders because it requires complex solutions designed by people with enough empathy to understand the root problem.

    So they treat it like a videogame. And lose.

      Yeah, I don’t really think Assad did anything to break Samsara when he was in power. He was probably justifying why he kept murdering people in this interview.

      I’ve been waiting ~30 years to kill a Nazi thanks to video games. Never thought I’d get a chance irl. But here we are, my great uncle served with the big red 1 during WW2, and now we’ve got Nazis again. Time to make the donuts!
