It's really fucked what's going on there though. It's not just bombing that's killing them it's famine and disease as well, not to mention the lack of medical supplies. Of course the entire population won't somehow go down to zero but it isn't crazy to think we could see millions die.
As a sand person myself, I agree that it's a disgrace. I just hate seeing people (almost always Western leftists of some stripe) who don't give a fuck about facts insert themselves into real, urgent issues.
The worst part is the smugness, as if they could solve intricate world crises with a flick of the wrist if only they were in power. Of course they never offer a solution other than "smash capitalism" or something equally vague and pointless.
Based on that post, they seem to believe that all the U.S. would have to do is tell Saudi Arabia "No!" and everything would be fine. Because, y'know, that's how international relations works.

yeah the real crime is here not the millions who have/will die, but the western soyboys who misrepresent the number by a few thousand on twitter
Whoever is ruling yemen thought it would be an awesome idea to allow a few corporations/wealthy farmers drill as deep as they want and extract water from their aquifers with literally no limit. This caused the famine and lack of clean drinking water, which started the cholera outbreak, which lead to a decrease in workers, which lead to a larger famine and inflation and things just absolutely spiraled out of control after that.
But blaming capitalism for corrupt pieces of shit politicians with no moral duty to their citizens is retarded, same thing could’ve happened under communism but it would’ve just been state sponsored. It just so happens this time it was under capitalism.
With the relations between l the major tribes of Arabia it's really not a crazy thing to say tbh, especially with house Saud and the Qatari's being so wealthy
The US isn't directly enemies with Yemen, they are first and foremost enemies with Iran and as a result friends with Saudi Arabia. The Saudis despise Iran more than anyone else and so are going scorched earth in Yemen as part of a broader proxy war with Iran leading to thousands of deaths and even more injuries and ill people. It might be a "shithole" but even basic human empathy should make you at least feel a little bad about the regular civilians caught up in a geopolitical nightmare.
I swear Chapotards/redditors in general are impossibly stupid when it comes to foreign relations. When it comes to global politics, their thought process literally doesn't go beyond:
USA = Bad
USA <3 Saudi
Saudi = Bad
Therefore, we must support the glorious anti-imperialist Houthis
Considering it's Chapo, they'd probably be down with the "Death to America" part, and at least a significant part would be cool with "Death to Israel". The rest of it, they might be a little more iffy on.
It's makruh if you're thinking of luscious thoughts (Bussy). but otherwise, as long as you don't jack it while praying, your prayer will still be counted.
Those brown people’s luck is about to change! Several hundred pudgy middle-class white virgins with brightly colored hair are very concerned about their plight, and are smugly typing words about it on the internet.
You know what impressive, Laying siege on whole region to starve it's inhabitants and still lose the war. Saudis realy should start super power in 2050 meme.
These are the same people who would say the Holmodor was not genocide, despite saying that forced starvation here is... Hmmmmmmm, me thinks communists are retards
Chapo folk also thought a podcast cohost hitting on a normal person on Twitter was rape, because of the "power imbalance" in their respective follower counts. There's no reason to seriously listen to their opinions.

Sarcasm and flippant behavior represent contempt, which is the opposite of intellectual integrity. You seem like a real fool of a human.

Let's see, number of God's Chosen who took a ride on the Holocoaster: 6 million, 3 x 6 = 18 million. Population of Yemen? 27 million.
yeah, I call BS.
