    Betcha there are people already arguing that it can’t be genocide if you only kill 1% of the population.

        Hilarious logic when it comes from a people who’s ancestors survived a genocide. If one thinks it cant be genocide if people survive it, then you gotta ask yourself a loooot of questions.

      Maybe I’m mistaken, but at one point long ago at school, a professor told me that genocide is when one ethnic group kills 5000 of other ethnic group. How many innocent Palestinians has Israel killed so far since Oct 7th?

        What a ridiculous idea, that a specific number of people being killed is what qualifies something to be a genocide. Genocide is about intent, not numbers.
