Can't we just criticize whatever he is doing wrong without stupid comparisons?
No, he is not a Hitler. No, Gaza is not a concentration camp. And the classification of whether it is a genocide or not will not be the job of a random Lemmy user.
It's interesting that professionals who know about public international law are usually careful calling it genocide, because this is a complex topic, but random lemmy users with no experience are 100% sure (probably because they heard it from others).
I have no problem calling it genocide when it is actually classified as one. But sorry... I think, it's just stupid to use this word as a buzzword.
