Wait, you mean the conflict can't be broken down into one simple tweet from some random woman?

[–] cyclohexane@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The tweet does not claim to summarize the entire conflict, but only promote the undeniable fact that it is a genocide.

again, a war cannot in it of itself be genocide, a war however can perpetrate genocide.

Much like a car can perpetrate transportation, but in it of itself is not literally transportation.

Amazing, you stopped genocide with semantics. Truly inspiring feat.

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 5 months ago

i didn't stop it. Do you actually have 3 braincells?

A war can happen independently but at the same time as a genocide, and you can have a genocide without a war, the two are not intrinsically related.

By this argument i've completely destroyed the transportation industry, because there is no more fucking transportation.

You do not have to say it "again". I ignored it the first time because there's no logical reasoning or evidence for this. Until you do, it's not something that I can respond to.

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 5 months ago

there literally is logical reasoning for this.

Notably the fact that war and genocide are LITERALLY defined as different words.

you mean to tell me the conflict that started officially in the year 1948 has nearly 70 years of history up to now, and has many involved parties, all of whom reside in the middle east, which is notorious for calm conflict resolution?
