dang it I could almost see the bots

That's because you're accustomed to imagining bots whenever you see opposition to genocide.

you haven't even read my previous msg did you? oh wait judging by the single downvote on each post you did. I suppose you just did not want to process it in that case.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Sorry. I thought your initial comment was saying that the opposition to genocide that exists is petty and unreasonable and has no legitimate grievances.

Were you not saying that?

[–] Avicenna@programming.dev 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

No what I was saying is more related to discussion in bad faith. I find discussions around things like "Bernie didn't call it a genocide he called only it a horrific crime so he is no different from Trump" quite vacuous and possibly in bad faith too. For instance, I think that if he was the president, US would not be backing the genocide irregardless of whether he called it a genocide or not and that is what matters.

I agree with that. I guess I was just oversensitive because I see that sort of dismissal of genuine objection to genocide all the time.
