Interesting how everyone seems to think this tweet from 2018 seems to refer to th situation in Gaza in 2023.
Right?! When I posted it, I was making a statement about enlightened centrism and not even thinking about the Gaza situation. Instead of genocide you can insert any morally abhorrent thing that should not be tolerated. But I get why people think it's related, it's on everyone's mind. Thank you for noticing though.
I mean, it's not like we haven't seen this kind of discussion in regards to Gaza.
The knee-jerk reactions in this threat are quite telling.
To be fair, the situation in Gaza isn't new and was probably the same in 2018
Sure but by that logic anything anybody ever said during my entire lifetime could be a reference to Gaza.
