And this is our fundamental disagreement. No action I could take would have stopped the US's support of the genocide.
However there was 1 action that I chose to take that could have prevented those murders. You chose in-action resulting in more deaths
Genocide is only inevitable because a huge swath of people like you agree that it is something that isn't too important to fundamentally change.
Incorrect, it needs to change. I didn't have the power to change it in the moment. There was only one of two outcomes my vote could influence that day. The good option was nonexistent
That's why I said "huge swath of people like you". In groups, we have the power to solve these issues, but instead, you would rather make a choice between murderers and blame those who don't want murderers in charge at all
