      Netanyahu is no better than Hitler,

      Hitler was no worse than Netanyahu.

      Both committed mass murder and genocide and are therefore equally evil.

      Agree?

        No. You appear to be deliberately missing my point here. I never said anything close to what you seem to be trying to imply: that they are both equally bad because evil is a binary thing with no degrees of difference. I am explicitly saying that there is no difference in the degree of their evil when it comes to Palestine.

            IIUC, you’re telling me that when it comes to Palestine, Biden is no better than Trump, or conversely, Trump is no worse than Biden.

            Correct, and I’m strongly opposed to the concerted effort to white wash Biden in this regard, considering it tantamount to soft genocide denial.

            which is why I wouldn’t be so quick to call someone who thinks one isn’t as bad as the other an apologist for fascism.

            It may be unintentional, or well meaning, but ultimately it does serve to apologize for fascism. And I’m particularly distasteful at the moment because I’m see a strong concerted push to spread the idea. We are essentially seeing history being rewritten in front of us.
