The comment to which I replied was "was there anything good that ever came from that Apartheid genocidal state?"

The objection I have with that is that it's reductive.

"It's not *so* bad" is different than "it's not *entirely* bad", and my objection stands, whether or not "someone else could achieve good results"

Do you feel like Apartheid and/or genocide are justified in this case?

  • If it's apartheid and if it's genocide, then of course not.

    To hold a strong opinion on whether those terms apply, I'd need more information than is available to the public, and go on a case by case basis.

    • I'm not particularly involved with the whole Israel/Palestine question yet I was unable to not find myself put in front of a lot of evidence, and I don't follow/have social media.
