Can you please point to me what makes you think it’s explicitly genocidal and not just your run of the mill war crimes like happened in Chechnya, Syria, and now Ukraine?
This is genuinely my only problem calling it a genocide, the label doesn’t exactly change much for me, I want Biden to do way more to end it, but I don’t think he can change 70 years of Israeli government attitude towards Palestinians in a year.

Sealioning for genocide. Neat. You’ll get ONE reply from me in which I explain the fucking obvious. The UN has a definition for genocide: “a crime committed with the intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, in whole or in part.”
Destroying the infrastructure of Gaza so that the wounded cannot get treatment. Targeting civilians. Targeting aid trucks. Preventing aid from getting in, essentially manufacturing a famine. And just so we’re clear, “Putin is doing it so that makes it ok” is a shitty rationale for anything.
If you’re going to ask for more granular evidence or dismiss what I’m saying, it won’t surprise me at all. In any event, talking to genocide deniers disgusts me and I’m not going to continue. So now you can try to goad me into continued participation in this conversation as well.
Assuming bad faith again as I tried to reach out to hear your position in the most honest way possible.

I agree all of these are awful atrocities that warrant treating Netanyahu the exact same as we treat Putin. I’m not justifying what Israel or Russia are doing at all, I’m simply saying that no one calls what Russia is doing (the exact same things that Israel is doing) a genocide except ukrainian nationalists.
I just don’t understand why it’s genocide when Israel does it, but not when any other country does these things.
You can’t just say “you’re a genocide denier!!!” When the world hasn’t even agreed if a genocide is happening.
Watch me: You. Are. A. Genocide. Denier.
I’m not buying that you don’t know it’s a genocide.
First Biden, now me, what’s your deal with not believing people when they say things?
Not everyone is arguing in bad faith.
If someone’s telling me that what Netanyahu is doing isn’t genocide, they’re fulla shit. May as well say the sky is plaid.
