    Instead, I thought about the ongoing genocide in Gaza and countless children who have been killed.

    Which is almost definitely what they were talking about.

    Asking someone to explain what they mean is totally valid

    And no where near as effective or clear as explaining the situation… Because someone posting in bad faith would let it hang, but some legitimate posters might just not see it till much later, or even at all considering blocks.

    Which brings up we don’t know if OPs screenshot was taken immediately after the last reply before they immediately lept to:

    they would never explain how. the ambiguity is the point. disgusting hypocrisy

    Which makes it sound like they specifically did not understand what was happening.

    But I get the feeling this is one of those complicated things no one actually thinks about and just goes off feelings rather than logic. So even if they’re right, they still don’t understand why they’re right.
