It’s something I’ve seen slowly starting to emerge over the course of the last year or so. Maybe even longer. There’s accounts that post stories to designed to shock people into thinking India is a terrible place. Like I get it. India does have issues. And it does have issues with sexual violence as well. But its a shame those conversations seemingly cannot be had without resorting to racism. I hope this site us different.
If you read back through this thread, you’ll see that in no way shape of form have I defended the atrocities carried out by Israel. That doesn’t mean that Hamas’ actions on Oct 7 weren’t also an atrocity. “Yeh, but that was 5 months ago” doesn’t feel like suitable rebuttle. No you don’t use genocide as a response to attrocity, but that doesn’t mean the original massacre wasn’t a atrocity.
I think you should should avoid using “lol” in these kinds of discussions.
