I didn't get to read their response 😭.

It's only genocide if it comes from the genocide region of Germany, otherwise it's sparkling Ethnic Cleansing.

I too have a hard time distinguishing between “good” and “bad” things.
The “radical Islamic fundamentalism” thing was a cynical, racist ploy from the GOP to fire up their little hogs. We call it a genocide because it is a genocide, jfc this isn’t hard. If there was a word that described something worse than a genocide I would use that word, because what is happening in Gaza is one of the worst crimes committed in this world in decades.
eat my entire ass, genocide denier
go fuck yourself
That's better than I expected from him.
It still hurts to see him use euphimisms like this directly afterwards
