Value judgements? Genocide is an objective thing. It’s clearly defined, with zero “good vs evil” involved in its definition.
It is clearly defined, but deciding what fits that definition and what doesn’t is not at all objective, it totally depends on which side you’re on. And since accusing somebody of something implies you’re yourself innocent, accusing of genocide is saying “they bad we good”, thus dehumanizing “them” as irrational “bad” and rejecting the attempt to understand the conflict in its entirety and in its controversial nature.
Apart from the fact that virtually every genocide expert has declared this a genocide. Including those from Israel.
Genocide is bad, genocide denialism and apologia is bad. Fuck off
