What the fuck is it with settler states that make them so outrageously evil? (hexbear.net)

I don't usually use 'evil' to describe things but I don't know any other word to describe settler states and their tendency to massacre and torment people they stole their land from and gleefully brag about all the horrific atrocities they've committed/want to commit. Never before have I seen a group people that take more joy in the suffering of others than the kinds of people that want to wipe out entire societies and claim their land for their own.

This is the kinda shit where if you write villains that act exactly like this people will slam you for bad or unrealistic writing, but no, it would actually be perfectly in line with reality all things considered.

EDIT: ps I know me not good at writing things. Wish I can write my thoughts on this better, but I can't really get it into right now

also I once lived with an athiest Israeli and he was genuinely terrifying in the casual way he would talk about violence

Examples?

once explained that if someone wronged you you should beat them to death in fairly graphic detail as an analogy to explain the Israeli Palestine conflict

Totally normal reaction to being wronged, have no idea what you’re talking about./s
