    Can people defending genocide hear how they sound as they defend murdering mostly children in the most gruesome of ways?

    That’s what you are doing.

    Dude is defending an active ongoing genocide, but sure, he’s the real victim because the government he supports (that actively tries to conflate nationality / race / and religion) is murdering children in the hundreds of thousands.

      I’m saying Israeli athletes are people in a conversation where people are claiming that everything is labeled as antisemitism.

      And now I’m getting labelled as being pro-genocide for doing that.

        You’re getting labelled pro genocide because you are, as demonstrated by your other comments.

          Joe Biden has been labelled as pro-genocide by internet lunatics too. So at least I’m in good company.

          Are you labeling everyone pro-genocide as pro-genocide in an effort to normalize genocide? So what Hamas did on October 7 will seem like a normal thing to everyone? Like what is your goal here?

            I’m calling people justifying genocide as being pro-genocide.

            Joe Biden single handedly could stop this genocide and is choosing not to. At the very least, that makes him complicit.

              How do you feel about October 7? Was that genocide?

                No. It wasn’t. It was a extremely bad assault that hit civilians. Or, whatever words you want me to use to describe a horrible thing that was wrong to do. But words have meaning. And describing all bad things generically as genocide cheapens that word.

                Now, before you feel self righteous and start issuing the claim of antisemitism you so transparently want to claim, I want you to think about something. Actually think about it, too, before answering.

                Can Hamas commit genocide against Israel, and if so, how? I’m obviously not asking about it they are capable of the desire. I’m specifically asking if it could happen, how would it be done? Do you think Hamas, a military force of some 25,000 fighters before the war, with no air force, and nothing other than light weapons and rudimentary rockets could commit genocide against a first world nation? How would they achieve that process with those resources?

                I’ve actually answered your questions in good faith. Are you actually capable of the same?

                  5 hours later… Nope. SpaceCowboy probably just rolled their eyes and continued jerking off to 15,000 dead children thinking it’s a smaller number than 12.
