That is not what you said. You are changing what you said. This is what you said:

Ethnic cleansing is objectively less severe than genocide. The Democrats showed no signs of seriously wanting to end the genocide. Also the destruction that now serves as the basis for the ethnic cleansing was done entirely under Democrat rule, with Democrat support.

This is not the gotcha that people think it is. It is more evidence that the US is a genocidal empire and both parties hold up this empire and commit its crimes together.

Now at least there is a slim chance that the Democrats start acknowledging Zionism as a political liability. Or they will just join in on the crackdown on all the minorities they pretended to care about slightly, but immediately blamed after the election.

That is you saying that now, because of ethnic cleansing, there is an upside, which is that Democrats might start acknowledging that Zionism is a bad thing.

I am not that blind or that stupid believe it or not. I am able to read.
