Sorry, but it really feels like you’re minimising genocide here, by suggesting the wide-spread censorship of anti-genocide voices in our media is not a serious problem.
Meanwhile, your best source can’t even be called anything more than “allegations”.
And even if Israel isn’t committing genocide, they’re undoubtedly creating apartheid conditions and regularly committing war crimes including targeting medics and journalists. And they’re the country with all the power in this situation. We rarely look at the harm caused by black South Africans, or by 1910s–1920s Irish republicans, or American revolutionaries, and say that they were equally as bad as their oppressors.
I feel bad for the innocent Jewish Australians who are being targeted by attacks. I really do. But a significant part of the blame lies on Israel for drumming up anger towards Jews by its deliberate attempts to conflate antisemitism with antizionism, giving genuine antisemites a convenient shield to hide behind. And also with many of the more vocal prominent members of the Australian Jewish community for taking Israel’s side and helping share their propagandistic outlook.

I don’t think it’s a genocide tbh

Ok, so we’ve got genocide denial coming in right here.
Basically every reputable expert disagrees with you.
