    Do you genuinely think she should have jumped off a bridge instead of being conscripted?

    I mean yes that would have been preferable to what she actually did, but this is such dishonest framing since she could have literally just not done it. No bridges needed.

        IDK what you said since it’s not in the modlog for some reason so I’m gonna assume it was one of two things

        1

        how dare you say fascist soldiers would be better off dead

        easily gigachad

        but she had no choice!

        The IDF is not going around shoving guns in people’s faces and saying “get in the van, we’re going to do genocide” it’s a very mundane process and you can just say no. You’ll spend some time in jail (time which as far as I’m aware is measured in months, not years) and then you’re good to go. And that’s if you can’t come up with a legit excuse or fabricate some reason that the IDF will accept that you can’t join the military

        Furthermore, in her own words as others have pointed out, she had options to get out. She planned to get out if the randomly assigned job she requested to be moved to wasn’t more exciting than the desk job she started with.

        Fortunately for her, the job she requested was in fact more exciting, and she got to spend time literally occupying what she called a “terrorist city” and working directly for the top officer in charge of the military base there. But even that wasn’t exciting enough for her, so she broke the rules at least once to go attend a raid on this “terrorist city” and personally participate in breaking into random people’s homes, brutalizing them, stealing their belongings, and kidnapping them. All straight from her own mouth. She did this voluntarily against the orders given to her by the IDF I will remind you. Brutalizing Palestinians was a fun and exciting extralegal activity for her. According to her herself.

        She forfeited any right to sympathy when she joined the IDF and she forfeited any right to being viewed as a human through her actions thereafter. It is a shame that no one shot her in the head while she was raiding innocent people’s homes FOR FUN
