Doxory?

quince has decided so, I have this thing against genocide. I'm planning a honeymoon, and the leading country committed some genocide about 15 years ago

Croatia was the destination, for the record. Genocide against Serbs & others during WWII and, of less magnitude, during the early 1990s. Still going -- it seems like a pretty cool country.

My choice: go! everyone was doing it back then OR it's different people in power now OR there's nothing like capitalism to encourage everyone to hold hands and sing kumbaya

What country has never been party to genocide? This is a trick question.
nelhage
Which country? I was in Rwanda last summer, and would definitely recommend others visit (they're made *huge* steps forward since their genocide), so it's definitely possible for things to change.

Countries don't commit genocide, people do.

...not that capitalism seems to be currently stopping the nasty stuff /our/ country is doing, but...

have the people changed? I expect germany has. Probably turkey as well. Have these?

or...you shouldn't hold the fucked up former government against the everyday people there now trying to make a living.

But if genocide hasn't been publicly acknowledged, shun them

How far back in history do you want to care? Just about every nation has committed _some_ genocide.

1992 still feels pretty recent to me

All of those are, in my mind, bad justifications. Go somewhere else.

i'd be uncomfortable with it, but not outright against it. only your second reason really makes sense as a reason to be ok with going. i think i agree with ian; if it's been publicly acknowledged and the country has worked to change things to prevent it from happening in future and has made what reparations it can, then i'd probably go. if they just had new officials move in who said "yeah, it's over, let's forget about it", then i wouldn't go.

If you make a stupid choice because a website tells you to, it's your own damn fault.
