        I wasn’t.

        It’s just that while there is a genocide going on in Gaza.

        There’s a genocide roughly 10x as large going on in Ukraine, and that one is threatening to spill out in ww3, and nobody from Ukraine started it.

        Russia is trying to make as much trouble in the world as it can to distract from Ukraine, and I’m willing to let Gaza keep going as it has for a while.

        Yes, I’m a genocide-whatever-er, and I don’t care, because the other genocide is so much worse.

        But as the ml-boys say: “If Gaza wants it to end, they just have to surrender to Israel”, like they say Ukraine should.

          Civilian deaths in Ukraine over the last ~3.5 years are still smaller than the substantially underestimated civilian death toll in Gaza after 1 year (which came from a very stringent set of definitions that basically can’t be executed on anymore because of Israel bombing the hospitals).

          There’s no way you could get to this conclusion except some hysterical idea about Putin wanting to put all the Ukrainians in camps as though that’s what he did with Crimea.

              What are you doing with cutesy sarcasm and cherrypicked headlines? Just look at the civilian death tolls. The immediately-presented numbers are 36k over 3.5 years to 42k over 1 year, and that’s again with massive under-reporting in the latter case.

                Those numbers look the same to me, or do deaths only count if they’re closer together?

                  Aside, again, from the fact that Gaza is being undercounted severely due to strict criteria for marking a civilian death combined with most of the hospitals in Gaza being blown up, yes! the rate of killing matters a great deal to understanding what is going on unless you are taking the hysterical view that Putin is going to kill every Ukrainian and is just dragging his feet a little.

                    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor

                    3.5-5 million. Out of roughly 25m.

                    This is clearly defined as a purposeful genocide.

                    And you’re fine with him doing it again.

              Oh no, how evil, they bombed a school and hospital…

              I know I shouldn’t feed the troll, but um…Yeah, that is evil that they bombed a school and hospital. It is also evil on what is happening in Ukraine. Both can be true.

              However, the USA has a a larger influence to put a stop on only one of them, and that is by, at the very least, dramatically reducing the arms being sent to Israel. If Israel knew they would not get resupplied with weapons and ammo so easily then it would make them think twice about using what they already have.

            Thank you for exposing yourself.

            Gaza should have just surrendered to Israel completely, let them do whatever for leave to begin with.

            I’m not white, I’m hindu, you racist son of a bitch.

            Gaza could surrender, all of Hamas could surrender today.

            They absolutely could, and refuse to.
