    Interesting how everyone seems to think this tweet from 2018 seems to refer to th situation in Gaza in 2023.

      Right?! When I posted it, I was making a statement about enlightened centrism and not even thinking about the Gaza situation. Instead of genocide you can insert any morally abhorrent thing that should not be tolerated. But I get why people think it’s related, it’s on everyone’s mind. Thank you for noticing though.

        I mean, it’s not like we haven’t seen this kind of discussion in regards to Gaza.
        The knee-jerk reactions in this threat are quite telling.

        Sure but by that logic anything anybody ever said during my entire lifetime could be a reference to Gaza.
