   I thought that poem was about being ignored, but this interpretation works, too

   You are entitled to your wrong opinion, but your opinion is still WRONG at the end of the day.

   Yes. Genocide requires intent — for example almost literally EVERY member of netanyahu’s cabinet using dehumanizing language and calling for the literal extermination of Palestinians.

   It also requires destruction of cultural history, like Israel’s destruction of dozens of mosques, cemeteries, schools, and other local and ancient sites across Gaza.

   It also requires the willful murder of non-combatants and civilians, the way Israel has murdered health workers, destroyed hospitals, targeted journalists, and blown up refugee camps. Israe has also SET FIRE TO CHILDREN and withheld food and medical aid.

   It is a genocide whether you like it or not, and also whether you agree or not. Your denialism indicates a casual disregard for human life, but you couldn’t support a genocide if you didn’t think the people on the receiving end deserved it somehow.

   It’s a long-running meme on the socials.

   To pretend that YOUR taste in music is the only correct taste in music means you are a grade-A @sshole, at a minimum.

   I was going to lament the death and destruction of the daily newspaper, but cozmik’s comment has put me in mind of the things people said about the early Black Jazz musicians not playing “real music”.

   I guess the whole history of music in the US is: when Black people do something musically, people in the US reflexively hate it for the first few decades of its existence until their children and grand-children come to accept it as its own form of music and it evolves into its own art form

   That’s a mighty elitist attitude you’re sporting there.
