That's a lot of words when you could just say genocide

[–] MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 3 months ago

Well, yeah, but this is a specific act of genocide. Can you imagine if all the headlines just said "Israel continues genocide" with absolutely no context? It's worth getting specific, even if the outlet still refuses to call it what it is.
