Folks (like myself) who are using the 'genocide' to describe what is happening in Gaza right now *aren't* just "throwing it around" or using it lightly. Using genocide in this context is *precisely* what Raphael Lemkin, the scholar who coined the term, sought to capture /1

it's genuinely so frustrating that Zionists are so desperate for victim status they consistently appropriate the language of the actually marginalized
Noah, let's keep this simple. In Toronto, land acknowledgements open City Council meetings, school days, sporting events and concerts, over and over, every week. Nobody argues they diminish anyone else's ties to their place. I offered probably the first one ever for the Jewish people's connection to the Land of Israel. It took nothing from First Nations. You say ancestral connection to land matters. So what is the one difference here that bothers you?
we are going to get to the point where people are going to complain that Marlaina Danielle Smith is pushing the gay agenda by making parents explain why the pride flag is banned
