    That part makes enough sense to me on its own, but what do they mean by not caring about “fellow Muslims”, and what connection are they trying to make between those ideas? It’s clear enough that it’s some racist bullshit, but I’m trying to figure out what it’s supposed to mean to other liberals, and it still just sounds like stringing words together. Maybe I’m expecting too much from liberals but I figured there would be something specific that prompted this.

      Oh, I think that’s just standard “Trump will do genocide worse (somehow), so you have to vote for the current genocider if you care about the people being genocided”. I think. It doesn’t make much sense I agree, but that’s how I understood it.

        If the libs on bluesky are representative it is what they believe. We must support their genocide to save the victims of their genocide from trumps genocide.

        I think that’s my mistake. I had assumed they understood that tool was only for white people to lecture other white people into voting for genocide. I shouldn’t be surprised when some of them actually use it to feel morally superior to people who are directly affected.
