Going by your opinions, username and fluency in English it would be very unusual for you not to be western. We can roll our eyes and pretend things are more complicated than they are, or just acknowledge that a person from the other side of the world learns about these conflicts and narrative from second or third hand - all he can do is choose those hands (to some extent, media manipulation and all).

So talking about absolute truths that are hidden from others is a bit pretentious in this context.

Again, what does pretention, or lack thereof, have to do with the truth or validity of my argument? You're doing it again.

Who ever mentioned "absolute," or "hidden" truths, either? That's called "straw manning," and I would appreciate it if you would stop.

You're saying I can't know anything of the "truth" in these places without literally having gone there? Well, that's the "no true Scotsman" fallacy.

Do you even know how to argue logically? Three sentences in your comment, and 3 logical fallacies? Come on. Be real.
