Genocide is bad.
Oppression is bad.
Racism is bad.Those don’t seem like difficult concepts to grasp.
Thanks, but could we not “all lives matter” the antisemitic sexual assault of a 12 year old?
It’s not far fetched to see antisemitism being an issue and think “they’re gonna come after the anti-zionists too”. This comes up in the article. This isn’t “all lives matter”.
That’s exactly what it is. If you read an article about a little girl sexually assaulted because she is Jewish and your first thought is, “but there is also a genocide in Gaza!” then you have lost the plot.
This isn’t just an article about a little girl being sexually assaulted; it’s an article about a little girl being sexually assaulted and the effect of that on French politics. People saying “but there’s a genocide in Gaza” are concerned about the latter half here.
I think that “alleged” can be dropped, if the emergency-services people had to deal with evidence that was sufficiently-obvious.
Don’t push deluded-doubt to help the disinformation empire, please.

“Alleged” exists until proven in a court of law. It’s how the system is uilt to protect potentially innocent people from being slandered. The news has a responsibility to be neutral and that language is a necessary part of it.
