Thinking there is a genocide because of stupidity is not the same as an actual genocide. Which is what is going on.

People claim abortion is genocide too. It is also not genocide. Just because you claim something is genocide, it doesn't mean it is. Experts tend to have to weigh in. And they have in the case of Gaza and have determined it is a genocide.

So maybe don't conflate the two, unless you are one of those kooks who believe COVID was a genocide, something not a single expert believes.

So... was COVID a genocide? Do you think those stupid unJesusy scientifimagicians are wrong and the Queen of Canada is right or is this a totally different situation?
