minus-squarekaffiene@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·5 months agoThat’s a very one sided view of history. If you can’t see that occupied people have legitimate grievances then there’s just no point in talking. Plenty of situations that “could never change” actually did. The past is filled with impossible situations consigned to the dustbin of history.
