That’s not what the previous poster said though, nor is that what ‘keen’ means.
I’m especially keen for someone to step up and do the deed, but that has nothing to do with my enjoyment, and goes way beyond just the morality of what’s happening (although that part of the situation is also fucked). But no, my country is under attack, and I want that attack to stop. And in every thread like this one where we express frustration with the people whose job is to stop the attack just standing idle and letting it happen; some jackass always chimes in with “well why don’t you do it??” as though it’s hypocritical to tell people to do their job. It’s not.
You know what, I think maybe I was a little overzealous in my reading of that person’s comment. I just went and reread it and realized there’s not a lot there, so I was probably assuming intent or meaning that may or may not have been there. My bad.

Easy to assume malice when we’re surrounded by it irl. I do that shit all the time too… we’re all just fed up and exhausted.
