I don’t understand why anyone, other than racists, would like someone who said someone else’s culture was “inferior” and used that as justification for their genocide.
I get this take, it’s the leftist perspective. Saying for the sake of discussion that there’s a genocide happening, to be fair to Asmongold, he didn’t say he supports it, just that he doesn’t care about its victims.
I’m going to propose a wild take that being apathetic about a genocide is tantamount to support.
I mean, they’re not the same though. “I don’t care about the Jews” isn’t the same as “throw all the Jews into the oven”. They’re both bad, but that doesn’t mean that one is as bad as the other.
Edited to add: also, what you seem to call leftism, I call humanism.
Of course you would. And a right wing fascist would call their perspective humanism too. Your framing matters little to me.
People who don’t care about genocide victims are anything but humanist. For you to see such unnecessary and great suffering, and be apathetic to it, you must have some serious issues.
On 26 January 2024, the ICJ said that it was plausible that Israel had breached the Genocide Convention. As an emergency measure, it ordered Israel ensure that its army refrained from genocidal acts against Palestinians.
The ICJ reported, as part of its decisions in March and May, that the situation in Gaza had deteriorated and that Israel had failed to abide by its order in January.
So, when we look at the actions taken, the dropping of thousands and thousands of bombs in a couple of days, including phosphorus bombs, as we heard, on one of the most densely populated areas around the world, together with these proclamations of intent, this indeed constitutes genocidal killing, which is the first act, according to the convention, of genocide. And Israel, I must say, is also perpetrating act number two and three — that is, causing serious bodily or mental harm, and creating condition designed to bring about the destruction of the group by cutting off water, food, supply of energy, bombing hospitals, ordering the fast evictions of hospitals, which the World Health Organization has declared to be, quote, “a death sentence.” So, we’re seeing the combination of genocidal acts with special intent. This is indeed a textbook case of genocide.
More than 800 scholars of international law and genocide have signed a public statement arguing that the Israeli military may be committing genocidal acts against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip as the total siege and relentless airstrikes continue to inflict devastation on the occupied territory.
An independent United Nations expert warned Monday that “Israel’s genocidal violence risks leaking out of Gaza and into the occupied Palestinian territory as a whole” as Western governments, corporations, and other institutions keep up their support for the Israeli military, which stands accused of grave war crimes in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.
Our documentation encompasses over 500 incitements of violence and genocidal incitement, appearing in the forms of social media posts, television interviews, and official statements from Israeli politicians, army personnel, journalists, and other influential personalities.
You keep implying the ideas of protesting the murder of innocent people and the promotion of equality as ‘leftist’, and that bring a negative thing. I, and many others, just call it “having empathy and a conscience”.
I have never watched asmongold but literally everything I have heard about him indicates he is a piece of shit.
Basic Lemmy take, I get it. I like him, but understand why leftists would loath him.

Yes and that’s a bad thing
The concept of caring about anyone, other than you and yours, is alien to these people. Fucking sickening, to be honest.
True

Do you unironically think that’s my position? lol
I don’t know what your position is. And I’m not really interested in what it is.
I can tell 🤣
I’ve tried watching him. Can confirm he’s a piece of shit. And annoying as fuck too.
