What is defending a politician committing a genocide, if not cult behavior?

Amidst zero people defend the genocide, hence the part where I pointed out that most people hate him. Are you fucking stupid or something? Do you think that turning every conversation about literally everything into a conversation about Gaza will do absolutely anything about the situation at all?
Everybody knows it's horrific. Everybody hates it. I hate it. I can't fucking stop it, voting for, or supporting, either party wasn't going to fix it (though one side campaigned on turbo charging it, which still makes them the objectively worse choice ethically and morally), so all I can do is focus on the other things that could change and be better.
I'm so fucking tired of you morons derailing every conversation to tell us everything we already know because you're too stupid to understand that other things still exist.
UN experts report Netanyahu and the Biden admin are on track to eradicate 95% of the Gaza population. It is the most important thing happening in the world right now.

If talking about it didn’t do any good, they wouldn’t be spending so much time and money trying to convince us to stop talking about it.
It's cute that you don't want anyone to remember this, but I remember it:

I remember it, too. What’s your point?
Again, with the current situation under Biden, UN experts project eradication of the population.
The problem is you neoliberals think words are equal to actions. Trump using harsher language doesn’t make Biden’s actions any different.
"Trump uses harsher language, therefore he won't be responsible for genocide" is a weird argument.
Work on that reading comprehension.
Insulting me doesn't change the fact that you are suggesting Trump will share in no culpability when it comes to Palestinian genocide.
If that is not what you are suggesting, you're sure doing a bad job of it.
Let's see if you will ever admit Trump might even possibly make things even worse than they have been under Biden maybe. I'm betting not.
No, I don’t think trading one fascist for another makes a difference. I don’t think choosing between Hitler or Mussolini is a meaningful choice.
And now it all makes sense. You've never even attempted to study history. Every Jew and Roma person in Europe in the 1940s would have traded Franco for Hitler or Mussolini.
A troll living in a black-and-white world who thinks genocide is just one level of badness and can't get any worse. Shameful.
It's people having a different opinion of events than you do. A cult is more like when your group thinks it's clearly, obviously, inarguably wrong not to see everything through your lens. That's a cult.
You mean like believing amnesty international, the UN, Doctors Without Borders, and the ICC are wrong about genocide? That kind of “different opinion?”
No I mean realizing the world isn't a meme. For example not everybody would think buying a box of screws from Home Depot is genocide because the CEO is pro-Israel.
Sending bombs to arm a genocide, in violation of both international & domestic laws, is in fact committing genocide.
Actually "in fact" and "one way to look at it" are different, and I'm done with this so go ahead and have the last word and award yourself internet moral victory points.
Is it weird seeing yourself in this situation, and finding out you would have supported the Holocaust? What’s it feel like to discover that part of yourself?
