His proof that there wasn't a massacre is that the death toll reported by the mayor is only on the same order of magnitude as the Tulsa Race Massacre?

For someone so adamant on criticizing propaganda the call is really coming from inside the house.

same order of magnitude as the Tulsa Race Massacre?

I'm guessing you missed the fact that events like Tulsa happen every year? The US is already sending immigration agents to stalk and harass migrants, intimidate and harass activists protesting against the Israeli genocide of Gaza, and defund and continually threaten gender, racial and sexual minorities (abortion, trans healthcare, hours worth of cases of well documented police brutality and unhoused people). Or maybe that the US is the 8th wonder of the world where school shootings are normalized, or having the largest prison population where the bulk of it is non-violent drug offenders.

Tulsa is just one event, the US has committed so many atrocities over several lifetimes. This single day during a time of great national political strife is somehow comparable? You think you're being so helpful but all you're doing is just spreading more misery for the sake of making yourself feel better.

Yes the US has committed numerous atrocious, massacres, and genocides.

You know what I wouldn't do? Make a YouTube video playing defense for the US government saying that any of those aren't exactly what they are.

Actually there's a video like that right here

I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of real videos exist, in which case it would be really easy to condemn them as gross evil western propaganda. It's easy to condemn Zionist propoganda as gross and evil.

You know, because I'm not in a weird cult that makes me defend mass murder of civilians.
