The word genocide itself is banned? Or you can't use it in reference to isreal? What if you're talking about WWII? Or you're one of the people protesting that call Biden "genocide Joe" (which is not specifically referencing Israel, but implies it pretty hard)...
I only ask because banning words is a pretty fuckin Republican thing these days and this don't seem like that kinda place.
I'm not referencing Lemmy, I'm referencing "newspapers" that want to frame the narrative by actively avoiding using the word Genocide to describe the Genocide being committed in Palestine by israel with support from Joe Biden.
Which is the video that I posted about.
