    I mean sure, but I wouldn’t call soldiers going in with armour and armed with assault rifles brave when they’re facing literal children and indigenous land defenders.

    As much as I wanna give the land defenders credit and this photo is badass, I think there’s a clear power imbalance that eliminates bravery. Like we wouldn’t call the American soldiers at My Lai brave for attacking civilians
