How can Labour supporters take a word out of Tony Blair’s mouth seriously?
Every time he appears the only question I have is “why the fuck aren’t you in front of The Hague or better yet a firing squad?”
a distributed divestment system that could be used to punish everyone who associates with warmongers would be neat.
That’s a pretty nauseatingly rationalist-ancap solution to imperialist war criminals. Just fucking shoot the bastards. What is the moral quandary there? Sic semper tyrannis.
Lots of people voted for, say, Bush. If you go out killing Bush and the others, it won’t be taken as “killing war criminals” because they don’t think Bush and the others are a war criminals. This will then be used to justify political violence by their side that they will consider retaliatory.
Or else they may start applying that calculus to other issues you don’t want them to. Some of us have seen the image of the aftermath of that truck attack in Sweden. They could start going after open borders advocates, more prominent Muslims, NGOs, and so on. Not that low-level individual violence doesn’t already occur, but it would increase.
