I think the trouble is that whether or not your explanation is true, this tweet is still supporting a genocide so it’s kind of like… 🤷♂️ he might not have had children in mind specifically when he typed this, but they’re killing kids anyway so what does that matter?
Right, but other people in the thread were jumping to the conclusion that the tweet was referring specifically to killing children. It’s not, and if it was presented as such, a bad actor could argue, as I did, that the guy’s not a child murdering Nazi because of this metaphor.
It’s bad enough that they’re using an ancient book to justify genocide. No need to sensationalize everything, it just weakens your argument.
