            Downplaying genocide and pretending it’s not happening is gross behavior. Gaslight someone else.

            The tragedy is not only that you refuse to see the genocide, but that you have justified killing civilians. So even if the offence is less than genocide in your eyes, you still think it’s okay that these “people” were killed. Usually it’s because you cannot view them as full humans like yourself. This divide allows you to suppress the feelings of guilt which helps you repeat and endorse Israeli hasbara. Worse than that even, you say you do it to protect democracy. If you cared about democracy you would probably better spend your time trying to critique the flaws in Israeli democracy, which is only seen as a democracy thanks to some heavy window dressing…
