Ask that same older generation about the genocide in Gaza. See what they say.

My parents were born late in the 1940s.

Both are disgusted by the actions of Israel as well as Hamas.

What's your point?

"Both are disgusted by the actions of the Nazis as well as the Jews."

That's your parents

Nicht alles was hinkt ist ein Vergleich.

So your parents would have been disgusted by both the actions of the Nazis and the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto. Sounds like they were 'good Germans'

Warsaw ghetto was closed in 1943. The war was over in 1945. As I said, they were born in the late 40s.
They also know how to differentiate between Hamas and Palestinians.
You are implying that Palestinians and Hamas are one and the same. Which they are not.
You are also equating Hamas and the Jews massacred in the Warsaw ghetto.
- Hamas are terrorists. The Jews were not.
- Hamas did deserve a forceful reaction. The Palestinians did not.

Hence why I said "would have".

They also know how to differentiate between Hamas and Palestinians.

Clearly not, given that Hamas aren't a different species or people. Hamas is literally the government of Gaza, it is made up of Palestinians.

You are implying that Palestinians and Hamas are one and the same. Which they are not.

This is always just a lazy excuse to keep massacring Palestinians.

Hamas are terrorists. The Jews were not.

"They weren't terrorists, they were freedoms fighters!"

You would have called the Jews in the Warsaw ghetto uprising terrorists.

Hamas did deserve a forceful reaction

You would have justified the destruction of the Warsaw ghetto in the same way.

Turns out, any time someone says they disagree with "both a sides" of a genocide, you don't have to dig far to discover that they support the genocide

I don't even with the rest of your message. You know two things. How to argue in bad faith and intentionally misunderstand people.

So your objection to the idea that your parents would have been good Germans is just "they were born to make late"?

I don’t even with the rest of your message. You know two things. How to argue in bad faith and intentionally misunderstand people.

I've been entirely good faith and haven't intentionally misunderstood anything. You're just launching personal attacks now because you don't have a counter argument
