and i'm not saying it's bad, i want the syrian government to win too

But Assad winning might not be that bad considering who he is fighting

I'm generally on the side of the syrian govt winning, but neither side is particuarly good

Assad is the lesser of two evils

two?

Do you know anything about the conflict?

fine, multiple evils

There are more than two parties involved

well i would consider the syrian arab republic and the ba'athism that drives it to be a more or less positive force

You idiot

the phrase wasn't supposed to be taken literally

"lesser of two evils" simply means "one choice is better than the other"

But the west supports th rebells @nic

Sure, herpa derp

also it would be better for the european people to support the syrian government over the rebels

Yeah, exactly

Based Knopfler supports the states and they don't support Assad

it wouldn't be for western capitalists, however

Fucking imbecile

So I don't kbow... you think Assad will win? @nic

I just don't tolerate fools

He clearly has no clue about the conflict

@Deleted User dunno how you cope with yourself then <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

GOT ME

Brilliant come back

thanks I thought so

ya because we love when the US props up dictators

He shouldn't be debating about it if he has absolutely no idea what's going on

my oh my how things have gone full circle

He can say that he doesn't know

Instead of pretending to have any insight on it

I have some knowledge
I am by far not the most well researched on the matter

@obrallaghan Well it's either a dictator or a bunch of crazy rebells this time

ok

but I have some idea as to what is happening

Take your pick

I'm sorry

@nic I take everything I said back

I don't think you're an idiot/imbecile/stupid

I retract my statements

syria's political system was actually liberalized a lot in response to the protests
