And he has spoken out in support of Ukraine as the invasion continues, so his claims are total nonsense. He's making an exception in favour of Israel.
Edit: he also played a fundraiser concert for Ukraine.
I don't know why he thought the whole "both sides" thing would absolve him in his press release.
I learned today that nazis think there are two sides to the holocaust
i've been struggling to wrap my brain around that concept, but i grew up where the idea of playing Cowboys and Indians (as a form of tag, when you're a kid) was in the public consciousness somewhere. I can't ever remember actually playing and calling it that. Maybe i saw it on the television or read about it? just you know a casual kids game commemorating the colonization and genocide of its land's original people. it gets worse the more i think about it.
Damn I thought about that a couple months back and yeah, I remember playing it as a kid. I think it quickly got changed to cops and robbers, so maybe I was at the tail-end of that version; sure was a fucked-up thing to call a kids game.
We played cops and robbers instead, but I don't necessarily think that's any better.
No doubt the current MAGAT's are introducing it to their kids as "ICE and Immigrants"
Our variants were capture the flag (with a "jail" you could rescue people from) abcd freeze tag. Mostly we just played baseball.
I grew up on a street a hundred yards long with 19 kids, and I was one of the oldest. We played a lot of baseball and soccer instead of tag. We had enough for full teams, so why not?
We had tag too. But cops and robbers was distinctive in that you were role playing cops and robbers. Tag was just tag.
yeah, the teams were balanced in capture the flag and we didn't really have a name for it other than the descriptor. i'm trying to think which role playing ones we did (i am confident that there were some, just memory gets fuzzy after a few decades y'know) but i do not remember.
I didn't even know that. Pathetic
