    It wouldn’t hurt you to be nice.

    That’s not an unfair position to take, but it’s not me. I can de-escalate, but not in the face of positions I find outrageous.

      It. Does. Not. Excuse. Genocide

      The sad part is that we agree but I don’t think you’re able to see it.

        Granted, maybe your point is that we shouldn’t consider all these details when determining whether or not a massacre is part of a genocide campaign,

        No, no, you outlined my position and our conflict just fine here. ‘These details’ are irrelevant. That’s my point.

        but it’s generally a bad idea to ignore context.

        There is no context that can justify it. It’s like saying one has to look at the context of a rape before judging it. You really fucking don’t.

            I don’t think we’re in a strong disagreement on the subject. It’s a detail. But it is a disagreement on how to approach things.
