LOL. Well, as one of those “Jews” (hate it when you non-Jews call us “Jews” ’cause that sounds Aryan AF. It’s “Jewish people”) whose families hightailed it out of Europe to avoid one of those genocides — still hard disagree. Perhaps you should ask some Bosnian muslims what they think about our intervention in the Bosnian war — where they were being subjected to genocide. Pretty sure their only complaint is that we didn’t show up soon enough. Or pick up Shake Hands with the Devil by Roméo Dalliare — we, and the rest of the world, should have intervened in Rwanda and our failure to do it was one of the most massive failures of the 20th century.

Our history of slavery and everything else needs to be reckoned with but not at the expense of standing up where we should, and it definitely shouldn’t stop us from criticizing regimes who routinely engage in torture.

Anyway. Now that you’ve called me a white supremacist, I’m assuming that there’s nothing else to call me other than stupid or privileged?
