  1. Gotta give you credit for mental gymnastics. First you claim to not hating on anyone, and then you go ahead and blame the kids being murdered by your fellow Buddhists on the women and kids themselves. I mean, those women and kids being raped and murdered by those pious fellow Buddhist countrymen of yours must have done something to deserve it, right? Give yourself a pat on the back and a cookie for good karma collection in the name of self righteousness. Do you know anything about the 4 noble truths and the 8th fold path, son?` How does hatred, and blaming the victims of misdeeds your rationalize lead you to enlightenment? Have you ever put yourself in the shoes of the Rohingyas? Or does your Burmese Buddhist upbringing under a dictatorship where empathy was frowned upon if not suppressed completely infringe you from being empathetic towards women and kids because they are Muslims, and hence 'the other'? How does that make you morally superior to the people you keep shitting on? From this view point, I'd might as well have spoken to a Zionist settler, or a white conservative in North Dakota who hates the Standing Rock Sioux tribe for standing in the way of their precious pipeline. It's the same as 'debating' with a white supremacist from Europe how all brown people are coming to Europe or North America to steal their welfare. Because their disdain for human life equates with yours.

  2. Those weapons must be those dead bodies at the hands of the Myanmar regime.. You sound like some of my countrymen who also hates refugees, people with a different skin color, or religion. If you call yourself a Buddhist.. claiming victim hood as you slaughter women and kids, I just wonder if there are any self awareness among narcissistic nationalists. If you feel the need to defend "your culture" by genocide, I suggest that your culture has as much right to exist as you think those people you kill has the right to exist. P.S. I used to dabble into Buddhism...... And I have yet to find any place in the 4 noble truths, or the 8 fold path defends this behavior from people whose entire dogma revolves around Enlightenment and detachment from petty things like nationalism, and blind hatred.
