      in your hypothetical situation, a bomb being dropped on Hitler and the war being over are inexorably linked

          my sweet baby boy there is no difference

          if you cheer the end of a war because a bomb was dropped on somebody’s head, you’re cheering the fact that a bomb was dropped on that person’s head, whether you realise it or not
