Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich says victory in Gaza will mean the enclave being "entirely destroyed," Palestinians leaving for other countries.
Fucking yes. I cannot believe we’re even having this argument. Nothing comes close.
Or the genocide starting in America of people with skin the same color as I have
I am absolutely not trying to downplay the barbarity and wanton cruelty of the Trump administration’s policies, but what we’ve seen so fardoesn’t match the definition. Extrajudicial disappearances and zero due process for perceived or actual migrants is not the same thing as genocide. There’s no forced sterilization, rote murder, mass displacement, or deliberate attempt to destroy a collective people. CECOT is an overseas concentration camp, not a death camp - yet.
? I’ve seen plenty of talk about the situation in Ukraine, Sudan and Kenia. Maybe your instance doesn’t federate with the instances where those discussions happen?
Palestine is a notable one because it’s perpetrated by our “ally” and it’s also very high in civilian casualties. And I really don’t say that to minimise any of the other atrocities going on.
I’ve seen a lot of mentions of other genocides on my instance, but what’s notable about the Palestinian genocide is that the US and the western world is directly involved in it.
Typically when I see this complaint it’s paired with a general vibe of wanting to deflect attention away from western atrocities. Not that I know enough to accuse you of that, but still.
Jesus christ. Maybe i don’t care about Ukrainians or Europeans because they were mean to me once? If you think the genocide in Gaza doesn’t 100% have the risk of spreading through the Middle east and into Europe, too, I don’t think you’re worth the time. And anyway, those weren’t the genocides I was referring to.
Feels a little like you just don’t like Arabs or Muslims.
Dude. I can name from memory the list of war crimes and genocidal acts that Russia has done, they’re on a speed run in their aggressive war of conquest. Bucha, Mariupol, perferdy, executing PoWs, torture, the kidnapped children being raised as Russian, deliberate bombing of civilians, Russification of the Donbas, chemical weapons use, the list goes on.
But the severity is not the same. Gazans can’t seek safety in western Ukraine, they have no missile defenses, they’re being deliberately starved to death as collective punishment, and are being kept inside a war zone by complete military encirclement and occupation.
That’s more than you deserve. You couldn’t even be bothered to vote against genocide. Too late to whine about it now. You were perfectly content with brown people from abroad getting firebombed
I have zero empathy for you. As an european i think we should give refugees status to those of you who didn’t vote for a genocider.
They are, I got them out of the country when the redneck filth took over.
I voted against Genocide, 2 genocides, sorry I don’t give a shit about the specific one you seem obsessed about, but I’m also pretty sure the ones I care about are a hell of a lot bigger.
Also, I knew a lot of the people I voted to stop the genocide of, which is why I care so much.
Genocide is the ultimate crime huh?

It’s Trump, no matter who the dems put up you weren’t voting for them, you were voting against a rapist, pedophile traitor.

…
Dodged right around the mass graves?
The kidnapped children?
The destruction of culture through russification?
I don’t quite understand your argument here, all of those crimes fall under the umbrella term of genocide as well.
Yet the only ‘genocide’ lemmy will talk about is palestine.

So:
Maybe I should, I just only met a few and they all seemed like dicks, plus this was kind of kicked off by Oct 7.
When Europe got unpeaceful in the past bad shit happened, I don’t want more bad shit.
Lol, well, uh… then fuck you?

Maybe you guys shouldn’t have sponsored Putin/Yeltsin back in the 90ies
He was better than the alternatives, but I agree, we should have started stomping balls like it was paddelball when he started fucking around.
BTW?
YOU’RE APPARENTLY EUROPEAN! YOU’RE STILL BUYIMG GAS YOU DUMB FUCK!!!
I love living in Scandinavia, they know what Russians deserve.
I hope your loved ones are safe.
That’s more than you deserve. You couldn’t even be bothered to vote against genocide. Too late to whine about it now. You were perfectly content with brown people from abroad getting firebombed

Sorry your favorite mass murderer lost

Then I don’t give a shit about Americans getting genocided. How does your own medecine taste like?
As an European I’d give asylum to american. After the prison sentence for those who supported one of the two genocidal candidates
As a new European, that’s funny.
5 fucking steps ahead bitch, love what you did with the place BTW, really feng shui all up in here.
