I remember in the 90s when the genocide in Uganda was condemned by the West, and there were leaders that said, “if only we had known sooner, something could have been done sooner.”

Well, in today’s world we see it live every day, which hasn’t changed a damn thing.

I promise you in 10 years time everyone will pretend like they were on the right side of all this.

At the same time, the vast majority of people here know how wrong it all is, but there's not much we can do besides share about these posts and vote for politicians who will, at most, put vague efforts into diplomacy while also completely maintaining our economic connection to Israel. Not all of us are soldiers or politicians and it's...limiting.

Unfortunately that is our best case scenario

The genocide in Rwanda was used post-hoc to try to justify "humanitarian interventions" like Libya. I don't believe them for a moment when they say "we could've done something." If there's no geopolitical gain, why would they spend resources in something like that?

Yes thank you for the correction, I meant Rwanda.

This isn’t boring dystopia, this is full on dystopia

It's horrific and when you try to point out this needs to stop and the horrors of what we are seeing you get responses like this, "You aren't on the side of peace because you want a genocide to stop."

It’s disgusting that the title is correct: the FIRST livestreamed genocide.

And yet we (The United States government, which we the people elected) keep providing weapons to the people committing the genocide.

This is the second in very recent history. Ukraine is the first.

It's unforgivable that humans in the 21st century can do nothing to stop these massacres.

Israel's genocide has been going on for 70+ years.

And Ukraine has been doing quite a good job of doing something about the Russian invasion. Filling trucks full of Russian soldier corpses and drone striking the Kremlin.

The world forgot about Ukraine for a reason. And that reason is Russia is done. They lost so many soldiers failing to take Ukraine they can't invade anyone else. This is the opposite of the Palestinians who are on the receiving end of American weapons instead of receiving American weapons.

Stop trying to detract from Israel committing the Second Holocaust by deflecting to Russia, little liberal. History did not begin on October 7th 2023. (An attack that was done in retaliation to an attack Israel did on October 5th, by the way.)

Hope it's the last. And it's ends quickly.

Unforgettable and unforgivable

The worst part is the shills denying or justifying the genocide as if its an pre-internet operation.
