    So we’re actually at the point where you’re throwing out nonsense, but I’m not allowed to tell you that it’s nonsense because that’s changing the topic? Are you a real person?

    You just keep asserting that what I’m saying is inaccurate and not expounding. The best you’ve managed so far is “it was a bipartisan” effort, which is so irrelevant I just ignored it the first time you said it because I presumed you were confused. Wow, who knew that two political parties could both be to blame here? A real shocker. I’ll get the news on the phone.

    Is the problem here that you don’t understand things like sarcasm or hyperbole? Do I believe that somebody’s run the numbers and come up with a precise figure on how valuable a Palestinian life is? Obviously not, no, but that’s okay because no normal person is going to intuit that I think that from my original comment. (For the avoidance of doubt, that line about getting the news on the phone in the paragraph above was also meant in jest)

    I was genuinely going to make a joke last time about how maybe I shouldn’t have said “kicking a puppy”, because it might confuse you given that it’s Palestinians being kicked here and not a literal canine juvenile. Then you unironically go and get yourself muddled on the verb “cheering”. Congratulations.

    Similarly, a normal person would understand that writing a puff piece article headline about how great somebody’s past actions are while making no mention of the genocide they’re currently funding is morally bankrupt at best.

    Ultimately all we’re left with is that you feel I was just a bit too spicy for your liking when calling out a genocide—a genocide you agree is happening, and that the democratic party is funding. Your sum-total contribution to the conversation thus far has been to play the role of tone police. Thanks for your service, I guess.

    So no, I don’t need to “watch my rhetoric” when calling out a genocide. Because it’s a genocide. Maybe you could try some of that adult restraint you mentioned next time you feel the need to interject with something quite so wholly worthless. Thanks.

      Oh please, you’re just wasting my time now with more bullshit. Nice pointless essay, have a life.
