The House just passed a cruel bill banning using funds to cite data on Palestinians killed by Israel. And people are defending this barbaric House bill by claiming, “the prohibition is only from citing death figures from Hamas” but allows tolls from other groups.

WHAT OTHER GROUPS?

Israel has banned all western journalists, exiled domestic journalists, killed 100+ Palestinian journalists, kills aid workers, & bombs hospitals. Gaza Health Ministry is the only data set we have and it’s been affirmed reliable by the UN, US State Dept, & even by Israeli Intel. And now even this one reliable source of data on murdered Palestinians is being banned.

The tenth stage of genocide is denial. This is what genocide denial looks like & shame on every politician who voted for it.

i don't like netanyahu and i don't like a bunch of things but do you believe the israeli government has a policy of wiping out an ethnicity? i believe the misattribution of the term is more problematic than it is helpful. i think you can more effectively help your own goals without applying a term that doesn't fit. as awesomely righteous as it may feel to use.

sorry man i'm over here trying to get biden reelected and this is a problem.

@reallywhy I’m so sorry the textbook definition of genocide is so inconvenient a problem for you.
@QasimRashid this is not that, man
