    Now imagine that the government read your post and decided that alone was reason to stop all efforts to oppose a literal genocide.

    Do you think you expressing your personal opinion really ought to carry that kind of weight? This wasn’t some important organization expressing an institutional position, it wasn’t some official government declaration, it was one jackass making a social media post, talking shit about people who are literally genociding her people, and because she didn’t go quietly into the night they’re going to try to send her back to her imminent death, and stop any efforts to save anyone else.

    It’s not a question of internet posts getting an exemption versus other forms of media, it’s a question of whether or not one person mouthing off is reason to condemn countless others to literally die.

      They aren’t "stopping all efforts to oppose a literal genocide "

      France is screening refugees. Because clearly the current screening is letting literal Nazis in

        They were already screening refugees, and someone got through anyway. Now they are stopping ALL evacuations until their investigation into one person is complete.

        People are going to die because of this.
