The inability of Western citizens to distinguish between societies built on human rights and tolerance versus those founded on old religious fundamentalism, blind to which shares their values and which would execute them for holding those values if given the chance, is a modern tragedy.

As Ayan Rand said: When you have civilized men fighting savages, you support the civilized men, no matter who they are.
there is no such thing as "human rights" you ahistorical and unwilling commie.
and tolerance is a vice, nigger.
the "modern tragedy" is your psyop'ed History Channel brain.
Please explain you point further, and maybe try use logical arguments and respectful language
those days are over.
Are they? Why?
because you are fucking retarded thats why.
the way you speak reveals a profound philosophical psychosis.
pro human rights in contrast to tradition is a take so odiously inverted and intellectual homosexual that the only correction for you is:
1) kidnapping
2) dosed with 500 mics of the ole lysergic
3) rational dialogue
so, you can see right there - IT AINT HAPPENING.
enjoy illusion and the eventual schizoid break it facilitates.
The pain and rage in your message is overwhelming. When you’re at the point of writing out violent fantasies against strangers online, it’s time to get help. I hope you find peace.
go fuck yourself 🥱
Does externalizing that level of anger help your soul?
I don’t think it does. Now you’re shouting on me, but deep down you are shouting on yourself
You defend the ideal beautifully, but its values have increasingly turned into Potemkin villages in recent times. Israel's actions in Gaza can only be described as barbaric, at best. It would be ideal for all nations to agree on the uncompromising adherence to human rights as a fundamental principle. And whether some like it or not, these rights apply to every person without regard to who they are. Those who violate these rights must be held accountable. The 'elimination' - death penalty or execution of criminals is likewise unthinkable in such humanistically shaped „civilized“ society.
Fair enough. What’s your framework for determining human rights violations when terrorists embed among civilians? And how should liberal democracies respond to fundamentalists driven by old religious ideologies use human shields while promising your destruction? What would the US do?
It’s essential that any response of a state to such challenges respects human rights and adheres to international laws, as this distinguishes it from the actions of terrorists, doesn’t it? Unbalanced achievements or overreach in response, neglecting the principles of international humanitarian law, targeting or refusing entry to independent journalists, starving people, deporting individuals, and similar actions undermine moral standing.
My framework for assessing human rights violations in such situations is based on the principle of protecting civilians and upholding human dignity. Having had the fortune of being born and raised in Austria, I believe that a meaningful contribution anyone can make to help people in that region exit this spiral of violence is to support those who advocate for reconciliation, dialogue, and social justice.
We all pray for dialogue, resolution and peace. The problem is that societies operate on different ideological spectrums. Some center around Western values of human rights and tolerance. Others around ancient religious doctrines that reject those very principles. Resolution becomes very hard impossible when core values are fundamentally incompatible.
I believe the problem is being misidentified. We should first consider how such forces come to power in the first place. This issue is not primarily about belief systems. Instead, it stems from social inequality, political instability, and a lack of education, all of which create a fertile ground for extremism. Additionally, we must acknowledge the role of economic elites who, in pursuit of their own interests, often manipulate public sentiment by stirring up fears and creating enemy images.
I disagree with you. All the things you mention are surely factor but in my belief, belief systems are the central factor in play here.
Hmmm.
US belief system has cost the lives of several million people since World War II.
These sources provide comprehensive analyses and estimates of the human costs of the conflicts in which the US has been involved:

I also disagree. It is a belief system. I highly encourage you to read the Quran and its Hadiths.
Why? Explain that to me (- from the perspective that we must fundamentally distinguish between Islam and Islamism.)
