Juxtapose means to put things side by side to compare them.
I said document it, call it out and prevent it. That’s not for scientific reasons, its very much political. How many more Gazans need to be killed before it’s enough like the holocaust for someone to do something to stop it? We compare these things because they look similar. Not to trivialise, but to understand.
As I repeatedly said: It doesn’t have to be “a holocaust” nor a genocide to despise it. Please just read what I pointed out in this posts’s comment section .
I have, you are missing the point. You seem to be suggesting that what is happening in Gaza is dispicable but can’t be labelled as a “holocaust” nor, arguably, a “genocide”. So this is a semantic argument based on your personal perception of the word holocaust and genocide. Do you have a more appropriate word for what is happening in Gaza? Unfortunately “Gazans are being treated despicably” probably doesn’t capture the whole 50000+ people dead and more dying due to military strikes, starvation and lack of clean water and medical care. See the funny thing with English is that when we don’t have a word for something we borrow one, or use one that describes a similar situation… But, yeah the important thing is that no body should compare this documented genocide with any other genocide especially not the worst one ever documented in detail.
