Comment on Jill Stein: When surprise bombing raids slaughter civilians, people can't flee, & rescuers can't rescue, it's not ethnic cleansing. It's genocide.
The point she’s trying to make is that mainstream media goes out of their way to avoid the word “genocide.”
If there is even a difference they are equally evil in my eyes. It honestly seems like pointless hair-splitting.
Again, I think it’s the media being afraid of the word that is the point. Yes, you’re right tho, they are both equally bad, but for some reason the media really hates using the word ‘genocide’ lately.
