The only reason to call it a Humanitarian Crisis is if you're an active US Politician as it can be grounds for expulsion to call for military actions against an allied nation, and by recognizing a genocide the UN allows foreign intervention.

The way I see it, all genocides are humanitarian crises. Not all humanitarian crises rise to the same severity level of horror as a genocide, though, and genocide is the more descriptive and more accurate term of the two. If you only have time to mention one label, you should mention the genocide label.

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
