This genocide has been going on for decades. If it wasn't a breaking point in '20, why is it a breaking point now?
For fuck's sake. Swear to fucking god, I can't tell the difference between the tankies who are disingenuously using this incident in the ongoing genocide to push a "TRUMP NOT SO BAD" narrative, and those who, like most Americans, learned about the existence one of the biggest issues in international politics just last fucking month.
This is worse than it's ever been in my entire life, surely you realize that?
It's more prominent. It's more visible. It catches the attention of those who don't usually pay attention to international politics. But I don't know why you weren't concerned when they were shooting up hospitals full of wounded and shelling children with naval artillery, but are now that it's proper flashy.
It was genocide. It has been genocide. It will likely continue to be genocide once the current operation finishes. And there's zero chance that it will stop as long as Bibi's government is in power.
I'd argue the scale of this is much worse than anything in the past few decades. There's a reason they're calling it a new Nakbah.
