Don't offer safe harbor to block-evading, genocide-downplaying, serial-harassing genocide apologists. These people are discourse-poisoning ragebaiters and should be ashamed of their bullshit. Nonviolent communication and nonviolent protest are key. Be informed, use E2EE tools like Signal & co., inform others, and stay safe. #opinion. #inaction is a weapon of mass destruction. #StopTheGenocide ✊ 💚 🔥
