    A solution to a problem can’t be “travel back in time and prevent yourself from being in this situation” that’s not a solution, it’s pointing out the obvious source of the problem.

      I agree, but that person did not say “just don’t get raped.” The analogy doesn’t work, and is weird to say while being destructive to the conversation.

      That comment I replied to made this equivalancy which is table flipping, fuck you I’m going to paint you in the worst light, type behavior.

      No, the guy didn’t say “just don’t get raped” he said “we shouldn’t have been raping”

      Ok, solution wasn’t the proper word, the commenter was talking morality. Taking the babies was wrong and America shouldn’t have done it, nor should they have gotten involved afterwards.
