re: #241 bratwurst

I’m beyond disgusted with people tossing around terms like genocide. This is a dirty fucking war, and yes, the sides aren’t evenly matched and Palestinians in Gaza are taking a hellish beating, but calling it genocide is hateful. Not to mention WRONG.

If Israel really wanted to commit genocide in Gaza, they absolutely could - they have the military means to do it for real. But they don’t, and they’re not, and it’s sickening to see people who otherwise seem intelligent saying this. So sickening I suspect we’re seeing latent antisemitism bubbling up.
