      It’s the Mongols who allowed Ghengis Khan to commit his shit.

      Uh oh, now you should be worried considering his lineage is in most of us. Those damn Mongol ancestors of yours. Why were your ancestors so complicit in the rape and pillage of continents? I think that makes you complicit, too, by your logic.

      Pitchforks at the ready everyone.

          That’s my point. Neither is Putin. Netanyahu’s approval ratings are rock bottom.

            And the majority of Palestinians in Gaza weren’t even BORN the last time Hamas allowed elections, let alone old enough to vote!

            99% of the times atrocities are committed by the powerful few, it’s against the will of the powerless many. Not least because the latter are also the ones who bear the brunt of the suffering.

            But yeah, bigots gonna take any chance at more socially acceptable bigotry, I guess 😮‍💨

            Yet they voted him in multiple times over decades full well knowing who he is.

            And how much of his approval rating is only low because he didn’t have enough people on the Gaza border to stop the attack? They don’t care about what happens to Palestinians, the majority support it, they care that they were allowed to be attacked instead of being the attackers like usual.

        Find me one person who got their trip to the “Homeland” who isn’t cheering for Gazan genocide? Obviously anecdotes, but numerous people I went to high school with have been posting horrendous shit since all this kicked off
