    Something people who say that don’t seem to understand is that you can support a group of peoples right to exist and not be genocided, even if they would kill you in a different situation. Human rights aren’t conditional on how they would treat you in return.

      Applying moral standards as a condition to not murder someone is rather hypocritical.

      Especially since those standards have only been mainstream for 20-30 years.
