Great question. I like posting non mainstream news sources but India is letting me down. I will change the article source.
People are actively censoring and denying any responsibility from the Democrats regarding the genocide in Gaza.
People are utter the words “Kamala was not perfect” while she is an active participant in a genocide.
It is not “Israel can do nothing wrong because history”. Democrats are the main responsible party. Seemingly they can do no wrong because lesser evil.
Have you ever watched one of the dystopian Biden state department briefings? It is lie after lie after lie.
So apologizing and supporting war crimes is fine as long as it is not communism?
In that case the term Tankie could not be applied to China as the original meaning of the word Tankies could only apply to the Soviet Union.
What I have always understood to be the implication is “people justifying and usually denying war crimes from a government or group which aligns with their political ideology”.
Most often those people do not care about the war crimes. They think a government and/or government ideology is awesome and therefore will excuse any war crimes because it is for the greater good/lesser evil.
Try saying Joe Biden is committing genocide on lemmy.world and you will find a plethora of apologists.
Russia does bomb regularly bomb infrastructure such as energy plants. But Russia is not mass bombing schools, hospitals and refugee camps. Every time they do it it is front page news because 2 people died. Meanwhile Israel bombs a school killing 20 people every single day.
If Russia did what America and Israel are doing in Gaza, the front page of newspapers would be filled with sob stories and gore. And Hamas would be praised as brave resistance fighters against the modern Nazis.
That is true. What the west is doing in Palestine is worse.
Your definition conveniently exempted America and countries such as Germany or the UK.
And if someone supports the American government which is committing a genocide in Gaza right now?

Every time an event reminds us nukes exist.
It did. But it is pretty safe to assume these ladies did not give consent to be used in a training data set.
Trump has plenty of establishment picks lined up as well.
We had the same fearmongering in 2016. Trump will do some dumb stuff Reagan style but he will not end the world.
“Adolf Hitler was not perfect and could’ve done plenty better and also it is the fault of the voters for being stupid as hell.”
What is the point of drafted Ukrainians dying for the next four months? You already accept Ukraine will inevitably surrender.
Trumpard ate those Palestinian faces once again.
The IDF posted a video how bad ass they were for burning down the school on TikTok (linked in article) soooo
Nothing like liberals advocating for the death of women from starvation under the excuse of women’s rights.

Some wild comments on /politics receiving upvotes there. People rebuking them get their comments removed and/or banned for ‘trolling’.
When one visit that place they would think Donald Trump is the current president who is personally strangling every child in Gaza.
