evidently you missed it:

before i leave off, in fairness to you, i dont hate you. i fundamentally agree that it was shitty of aoc to vote to fund israel’s ongoing genocide and am skeptical of her intention and ability to affect meaningful positive change. i take exception to the unworthy insult. i write in disappointment, not anger.

Not sure how much time you want to spend arguing about semantics. Yes Israel has been genociding Palestinians since even before 48, but terms are used out of convenience and saying "77 years into the genocide" is not language anyone will understand.

oh i see, referring to the actual number of unbroken years of genocide is an inconvenience. i will weep for your poor hands. i wonder what you will do with all the time saved 🙄
