No. The conflict is currently on this scale because the two main military (RSF and the sudanese army forces) are at war and funded or supported by other interests. RSF is directly funded by UAE while Egypt and the west support the SAF or close their eyes for impmarialist interest. As for the massacre, they are a result of colonialism and racialization due, again, to imperialist interest. The problem is bigger.
“problem is bigger”

bro the darfur genocide of early 2000s has a body count of damn near half a million. There’s no much bigger than that lmao

New parties funding the aggressors doesn’t change the fact that it’s still at its very core a tribal war
No, that's not how it works. The colonization structured african societies into racial categories. Pushing black population to an inferior status while giving a more civilized status to arab population and nomads. Thus creating domination through internal conflicts. The situation here (RSF targetting population based on a racial principle) is a DIRECT result of these categories.
Colonization did not create these structures, there are records of African warfare before modern Europeans stepped foot Africa. Right now the racial categories are more cultural wise than the typical European color one. An “Arab” from Sudan is not the same as someone from the actual Arab peninsula

No. It's materialist and anticolonial thinking. You are the unserious one by reducing the conflict without understanding the deeper sociological nature of the material interests at play. Again, the west created this situation and is now fuelling it with the help of UAE and others country. Everyone wants a piece of sudan and the genocide is DIRECTLY linked to this imperialist and pillaging paradigm.
It’s deeply unserious to tie the west to every single bad thing in the world. It shows a huge blind spot of history and just proves how west centric you are. Let’s face it, the west is not the center of the world. Does it play a part today? Yeah, but it is nowhere near the main reason why this conflict happens. That is just extremely self centered to believe so

Tbh Sudanese Baggara actually have legitimate Arab lineage

Not like for example Egypt

Again, no. It is not. While the number of victim is enormous, there are reason behind these attacks, racial, colonial, imperialist, economical, strategic. This is a much bigger and complexe situation than a simple tribal war. And all of this is rooted in colonialism, white supremacy and imperialism. I know it's hard to see without a materialist thinking but that's reality

Listen, if you want a course of the effect of colonization I can direct you to amazing literature. The point you need to understand is that despite conflicts in the past, the racial categories that are at the center of this conflict are rooted in capitalism and colonialism. Believe me don't believe me, I don't care, it's factual. Learn about whiteness, then we will be able to have a much better conversation.

It’s deeply unserious to tie the west to every single bad thing in the world.
You are the only one doing this. You are the one making big generalizations, not me. i'm talking about precise issue and domination system. If you do not care learning about that, it's ok, but do not try to give me lessons about seriousness.

It shows a huge blind spot of history and just proves how west centric you are.
Same thing, Learn about anticapitalism, anticolonialism and anti imperialism from the POV of subjugated people, from researchers and activist, then we will have this discussion. It's useless to talk about this subject if you do not do that first.

Sadly it is. By design.

COnflicts are multifactorial, and what the west is doing now is not the same as what the west has done before. Yet, these two factors are still at play in the conflict : colonialism + Imperialism. Now, you add the capitalist interest of other nations and alliance (China/UAE etc.) and you get a genocide funded by capitalist and imperialist agenda. Something that could be reduced by preventing these fundings.
 
Read... the damn... article and don't let me think that you are all too lazy or stoopid to understand it:

https://www.parents.com/asking-cons...diculous-heres-why-you-should-try-it-11852560
No thanks. If the options are between people who don’t think parents need to ask a toddler for consent to change their diaper, and people who write articles arguing that you should, I’d rather be called stupid and lazy on an online forum than read anything written by the latter group of people :pepelovesfu:

The title is click bait. Its about teaching kids early about consent, but they turn away like 95% of people with the fake title.

70 to 80 % of this forum would benefit trying to challenge their values and preconception.

Still a fucking retarded article
An article explaining that it's important to create a space for children to learn about their agency and consent and thus their limits and also important for parents to learn that their children are human beings with agencies and not tools to be used or control? R*tarded?

Ableism aside. Please, don't have kids.
 
that's a normal thing for parents to teach their kids

you don't need experts for this unless you don't even know basic parenting
It's not only for children, but for parent to learn to. And no, that's not a "normal thing" to teach, it's not something parent even care to teach. If that was the case, reactionaries in this thread wouldn't be shocked by people teaching kids about consent at school.

Yeah no shit, more like 95% of them would benefit (including you btw)

No one cares bro if you want to explain that it's important to create a space for children to learn about consent, and you title your article "Why you should ask for consent before changing diapers" you're fucking retarded

And this isn't ableism because everyone understands that "retarded" is a homonym. Special needs folks are some of the most inspiring people you can meet and I would never call them that word. That would be indeed ableist.

But everyone understand what I mean when I call this article fucking retarded and using the labeling card isn't gonna work here lol

I don't see why. The assertion is legit. As in this case, asking for consent in that context will prepare the parent. It's your fault to think that it was for the kid first.
