History did not start on 7 October. But as the world stops to mourn it will for ever be a reminder of whose lives matter.

    I mean you can down vote me, then throw a wall of text at me that no one is going to read. But it doesn’t change the reality.

    40 some thousand dead out of a population 5 million people. War is truly fucked up. We don’t have to change the definition of Genocide to try and make a point. It makes the argument sound fake. Like you want to force a response for fiction.

      If you looked at the report, you would see exactly how it fits the international definition of genocide. The point of these definitions is to prevent genocide before it gets to the kind of scale we have seen in the past.

        So the definition of genocide was changed to prevent the old definition of genocide from happening.

        So it is exactly what I was arguing. You just changed the meaning of the word to make your rhetoric sound worse than reality.

        Honestly. No lie. This makes me wonder how else your group is changing the meaning of words to paint the picture you want people to see.

        Speak plain truths, they are damning enough. Lies hurt your argument.

          What are you talking about, the definition is clearly listed on page 17 of the linked report. Nothing has been changed, the point of recognizing a genocide is to stop it.

            Let me be more clear?

            You are lying and speaking propaganda. And it makes you untrustworthy.

            When people sell things this hard, I know they are stupid or a liar. And I’m calling you a liar.

              I gave you multiple resources, from different sources, that show how holocaust and genocide scholars consider this a genocide. You chose to not read them. I quoted relevant paragraphs that showed the analysis of one of those scholars and the much higher death toll. You chose to not read them. I gave an extremely detailed report by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor and even gave the exact page that describes, in detail, exactly how this genocide fits the definition given in international law. You also chose to not read that.

              Then you say that I’m a liar? I’m done talking with you

                Yep, you are selling propaganda that you don’t believe. I believe you are a liar of the worst kind.

                Your overdramatic morale outrage is as false as all your posts.
