It isn’t. So your what if is irrelevant to the point.

Thirty-three countries have recognized it as a genocide, and we’re waiting for a ruling from the International Court of Justice (in a case brought by South Africa).

I didn’t say a genocide wasn’t happening. You really need to look outside your own biases. I think you’ll find conversations to be significantly easier to manage.

What I said- was that the “cereal” isn’t committing genocide.

Not committing genocide...just enabling genocide. I believe that's called a "distinction without a difference".

I believe I was responding to this. And it’s not a “distinction without a difference.” It’s a poorly made straw man.

Harris isn’t enabling anything. She hasn’t made any policy decision that has a thing to do with Israel or Palestine.

So unless you have anything else to offer besides reality-warping rhetoric… we’re done here.
